So murderers and rapists have to work in the heat? I’m trying to care.

No, but it's less than 1%. I don't believe in making life easier for 99% of the criminals because a very small percentage is innocent. If they're innocent, let's get them out. Them being innocent is no reason to spend more money to coddle people that couldn't act appropriately in a civilized society.

If someone on probation or parole tests positive for THC, it’s still considered a technical violation of their supervision.
Oh wait, it's the systems fault?

are you upset more so that it's hot in Louisiana during August or the per hour wage they get paid to harvest their own food?

FIFY
I mean... they knew they were on probation... and they knew that possession of THC is a violation of that probation... therefore... I fail to see the problem here. Seems rather simple... if you are on probation and have the desire to complete said probation successfully, don't do things that could lead to violating said probation. Right?

Dex Morgan is an idiot. Nobody is going to Angola because of weed.

The DOC told the court that it had purchased some sunscreen and a single 10×10 pop-up tent to provide shade for around 20-30 laborers.
If grass cutters can do it so can prisoners.
1hr work, 20 min rest in the shade, you can rotate 4 groups of 8 prisoners.
Sunscreen, water, they're good to go.

Then why are our prisons full? How many centuries does this practice take to start deterring crime?
It's kind of like shutting down the economy and forcing masks with COVID only needing to save one life to be worth it.
If just one person was deterred from committing a crime, I'm good.

Trying to understand what the issue is. Is it that inmates are forced to work in the summer heat?
For comparison:
1) I'm old now, but when HS I (and others) worked all day in the sun, then went to football practice for another 4 hours. None of us thought it harsh. FTR, we got one water break at practice for about 10 minutes. This was SW MS.
2) The roofing Crews here (Katy, TX) start at sun up and work until sunset. Mostly Mexicans. They do take an extended siesta but they have no shade. And you can disabuse yourself of thinking it's dry heat. Our DPs are running upper 70s.
IOW, I have a hard time thinking there is something inhumane about this.
If the concern is that an innocent person would be subjected to this, then I'm all for improving the judicial system. But it's hard for a society to forego any justice until we have perfect justice.
Finally, as a follower of Jesus Christ, I believe man is created in the image of God with an innate sanctity, liberty, and dignity. But when someone takes those from another, they forfeit their own claims to such in principle.
So if these are rapists and murderers, then why are they still above ground?

Who says they haven't? What would crime rates be if prisons and punishments were stopped?

I wish you showed this much compassion for the victims of crime.

Is weed decriminalized or not? I posted my comment in response to someone claiming no one gets in trouble for weed.

Why not just kill everyone convicted of a crime then?

If they're innocent, let's get them out.
Do you trust the same system that convicted them to suddenly have a change of heart and release them?

If this is your reasoning, you must agree that there are several posters in this very thread who are clearly incapable of acting appropriately in a civilized society. Why aren’t you arguing for them to go to Angola?

Because for the last 60+ years we have celebrated all kinds of immorality and have increasingly refused to hold people accountable for their actions in small things leading them to think they should be free to do as the please in regards to big things. They then find themselves in Angola.
This is completely false.

Isn't that one of the most sought after jobs at the prison? It's better than sitting in a 100sf box all day.
