If they have any family or friends that care about them. |

Not at all! There are 10 inmates in line waiting for that jail bed anyways.. On the bright side it saves tax payers 30k/year. |

Not really they are criminals and the taxpayers are taking care of them. I save give them all a piece of rope if they want it. |

Yes. I had a close friend, he passed away two years ago, whose daughter went to jail for repeated drug offenses. She was diagnosed as bipolar in prison but never received the treatment or medications that might have helped. She hanged herself in her jail cell after sending him a letter telling him that she was fine and loved him very much. It was so tragic. She was 24 years old. Beautiful girl when she was not on drugs. |

We should organize a support group for them and collect rope from the public to support their cause.
We could get some short lengths of thin rope and make a ribbon to wear in suppoert of their cause. |

Good one Jay! I'm right there with you. |

Yeah, I think they should do the time...not get the easy way out unless, of course, they are non-violent drug offenders--in which case they should never have been locked up to begin with. |

Any death is to be cared about. After all that person is a human. Even if they are in Jail they are a person. If that was your loved one would YOU Care? |

Well, it would cut down on prison overcrowding...and the cost of keeping an inmate (about $20,000 a year)....
But seriously....I think we should always value life and even in the case of hardened criminals hope that they have obtained forgiveness in this life and the next! |

Depends on who the inmate its. If it is someone like Charles Manson, Susan Smith, or Scott Peterson, hell I'll be there to help them with the rope. |

not really.
I feel sorry for the CO that has to clean up the deck where they cr@pped themselves after they died.
It's every person's right to kill themselves.
It's not like there's a shortage of people.
If that's what you need to do, go ahead. |

Yes, the friends and family of the Inmate would have some concern, the other Inmates who are left to wonder if someone may have actually killed this Inmate and maybe they are next, the Corrections Officers that have to deal with the situation...the questions from Supervisors as to who was responsible....the accusations from other Inmates who may blame those in charge....the child that has nightmares....and the list goes on and on.

I'm sure that their family would care. |

Yes.
Their families and friends care. The people who have to cut down the body care because that's just an awful thing to have to do.
Also, most likely if they hang themselves they are feeling some remorse and probably would not repeat their mistake if released from jail.
They are human. People should care when they kill themselves.
Unless, of course, they are sentenced to death in which case it saves everybody lots of money with the same end result. |

If the inmate has family and friends, they probably care. |
|

Stupendous Man!

Their families might? I would hope someone cares. What kind of sick heartless douchebag wants to see people killing themselves? |

Sure, the Inmate's family, friends, cell mates, and the family of the victim whom he/she affected- they'd feel the inmate took the easy way out and justice not served (although a common response is that even if the inmate is given the needle, justice was still not served). |
