Over in Minnesota, a group of imprisoned sex offenders are pissed off because guards confiscated PCs they were using in their cells/rooms. So like any American, they took it to a court of appeals, only to have it shot down by a judge with half a brain. I’m guessing the court appearance went something like this:
Judge: Why should I let a group of sex offenders keep their PCs?
Inmates: So we can…ahh…keep up with…current events. Ya know. And we want to
post videos of Bob getting shanked in the shower.Judge: Yeah, I’m going to have to go with “No” on this one.
Inmates: Damn.
I think the ruling was, to say the least, a smart decision on the court’s part. I mean, does anyone want a bunch of convicted sex offenders and rapists playing WoW or posting videos on YouTube? Didn’t think so.
Why should they not be able to play WoW or post pictures? what kind of pictures can they post? they just put up web pages for their families and friends. They can block out chat and other sites but should allow them email and google etc…news at least
