		GordonS on Sept 3, 2015 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Solitary Confinement Is Cruel and All Too Common The only 2 choices shouldn't be solitary confinement or being beaten/raped/murdered by fellow inmates. I would have thought that surely most inmates would just want to get their head down and serve out their sentence?

And that's why most inmates are not in solitary confinement.

You are not understanding my comment.

If the violent inmates are not solitary, they are in a cell with YOU. Do you want them in a cell with you, or in solitary?
