HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF IN MICHIGAN

Yes I am back. My wife's family was here for the weekend for a visit from New York, so that is why the Roguish one's thougts have been absent from the web for a few days.

Michigan's Govenor Jennifer Granholm who happens to be from Canada obviously has not studied the criminal history of Michigan or she would not be about to make the gigantic blunder that she WANTS to make.

Back in the late 70's under then Govenor Milliken needed to cut back on spending so he decided that it would be a cool idea to give a bunch of felons with light sentences what we call "Early Release". So in droves, these young men were released from prison early back onto the streets of Southeast Michigan, home to Detroit City. Well these fine young men, when they returned to the streets, committed bigger and better crimes and landed back into the system with huge amounts of time to do on their sentences. Well they came back so fast and in such huge numbers that the State of Michigan had no where to put these "Fine" young men, so they warehoused them in the already crowded prisons that we had.

Now, lets time warp ahead to May of 1981. Huge riots erupted at 3 of the largest prisons in Michigan. Jackson Central, Marquette, and the Michigan Reformatory in Ionia. These riots took place within hour of each other on the same day. These "Fine" young men used the Chapel at the Reformatory in Ionia as a Brothel where they raped the weaker convicts, and all but burned the places of their confinement down.

Michigan in it's shortfall of bedspace and the huge overcrowding caused by the mass return of the "Fine" young men that were early released from prison, began one of the largest construction projects in history. Prison Building became a huge industry in Michigan, and with all of the new facilities being built, of course they needed to staff these prisons, so the Michigan Dept. of Corrections became one of the largest growing employers in the state.

Now we warp ahead to the year 2005. Govenor Jennifer Granholm wishes to repeat this historical blunder by reinstating the "Early Release" program and letting convicted felons out early so that she can save money, and probably an attempt to create some new voters for Hillary Clinton in 2008. If you remember, Hillary wants to allow felons the right to vote.

There are better ways to save money in the state budget and generate revenue without having to release convicts early or raise taxes. Try cutting back on some of the social programs in Michigan. It is ok to give a hand up, lets get away from giving a "Hand Out".

Oh yeah, lets remember, that when these "Fine" young men get out of prison early, the first thing they go looking for is a willing female to make his first evening out of the joint a little warmer. Do you think these "Fine" young men are using condoms? Do you know what happens next? You have a bunch of unwed mothers with new babies, and the fathers are back behind bars for a longer time, thus not being able to pay child support or take care of these children, they end up on the states welfare rolls and thus new big government dependents are created to vote for the liberal Democrat idiots that created them and their situation to begin with.

This is just my opinion....I could be wrong, but I doubt it. Having worked for the Michigan Dept. of Correction for 10 years in the late 80's and thru most of the 90's, I have a first hand knowledge of what "Early Release" creates. Send Jennifer Granholm's butt packin back to Canada in 2006.....The Rogue Jew
