File talk:Prison crowded.jpg

Is this typical of California and the USA? Seems inhumane. Are they triple bunk beds or is the middle row for storage?--ЗAНИA ^{talk WB talk}] 23:47, 16 March 2014 (UTC)

Yes, this is pretty typical for California, because federal prison network way above capacity there (39 percent above capacity in 2007). Also, the middle row of the triple bunk beds is not for storage, it is for HUMANS. Here is more articles and photos about it:

Innab (talk) 16:46, 18 March 2014 (UTC) Thank you for your reply and the links. I didn't expect any replies as I know people rarely look at talk pages of images but it did seem like an appropriate place for my question. Very interesting links. I can't imagine such an environment helps with the rehabilitation of these guys.--ЗAНИA ^{talk WB talk}] 01:50, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
