(New York, October 11, 2006) ? Five state prison systems in the United States permit the use of aggressive, unmuzzled dogs to terrify and even attack prisoners in efforts to remove them from their cells, Human Rights Watch said today in a new report.
The 20-page report, ?Cruel and Degrading: The Use of Dogs for Cell Extractions in U.S. Prisons,? publicly reveals this practice for the first time. It also shows that the practice is not only cruel, but wholly unnecessary as there are safer, more humane alternatives that corrections officers can use ? and most across the country do use ? to remove prisoners from their cells.
Quote:
In Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa, South Dakota and Utah, if a prisoner will not voluntarily leave his cell when ordered to do so, officers may bring a trained attack dog to the cell front to terrify the prisoner into compliance. If the prisoner still refuses, the dog is let into the cell to bite the prisoner. While the prisoner tries to fend off the dog, correctional officers place restraints on him and then remove him from the cell.

I am usually on the left on these issues, but when it comes to corrections and the difficult job they do I am usually on the other side. Dogs are not the best alternative, but an alternative to an inmate who can cause harm to correctional officers who are usually filmed and have to use restraint on the most violent of criminals. I am sure the intent is show of force that will avoid restraint, however sometimes you have to follow through with your threat. No one likes it, but the alternative of sending in 3 or 4 officers into a 6X8 cell to get an out of control inmate sometimes causes big problems.
The major change of corrections has been the burgeoning population, and mixed in there are a few psycho cases... not that it makes it any better, but some of these guys defy all logic and possess extraordinary strength when this happens. There are not a lot of alternatives, I am sure it will be looked at by Advocacy systems.. but have found some of the advocacy systems are also looking at what the CO's face on a daily basis. If there is a logical method and all safeguards have been utilized, the prisoner warned then I have no issue with this method.. as it may cut down on injuries to CO's and make their job easier.

Why Is It Always Bad America:
Does"Human Watch" have any idea what is going on on the rest of the world, do they ever go to Africa, Iran, China, Cuba, N Korea, Siberia, So America, do they ever report what the Crack Cocaine Mothers in the housing projects of Detroit do to their new born babys who are also "Crack Heads", do these Anti American bastards ever go to India and watch those f-cking animals set a women on fire because she had sex with her neighbor while her husband was out feeding his water buffalo, to avoid being bitten by an attack dog do what the f-ck your told to do.
Bad America:
When Tipper Gore lets Crazy Al out of the house for some fresh air and he starts Bleating and Raving about Global Warming does this bellowing lunatic ever mention the SUV's in FRANCE. bricks

Now if you could just learn to see the Islamist as inmates, you would get a better handle on the GWOT

They (liberal democrats) will never get a handle on it because to them America is always WRONG, they believe that America sjould never "fight back" they just can't get it through their little "pacifist" heads that there are murderous savages out there that want them dead, watch this whack job Pelosi women, she truly believes that "grinning" will win the war on terror, remember Chamberlain in WWII, he went and played footsie with Hitler, he had tea with the Fuerher, Hitler told this liberal dim wit that he loved England, Chamberlain hurried home to England and told them everything was great, he said they could stop making guns, the next day Hitler almost blew London off the f-cking map.
Beware of the Liberal do-gooders they are as dangerous as the terrorists, and twice as mean. Would any American in their right mind let Howard Dean guard their family?
