xoB, you're talking about people having or not having the choice to fight a wildfire/risk their lives, right?

People who are otherwise sitting in a cell for one (arguably bad) reason or another.

As someone who has been in an intolerable situation for one (bad) reason or another, I'd always welcome the chance to strike out and do something meaningful for my own sake. I can't speak for everyone in CA prisons, obviously; just offering some thoughts from a similar perspective.
