Legislators, churches and civic organizations call on Quinn to stop Tamms abuses - Polls - Belleville News-Democrat
The governor needs to step up here in Illinois and do something about this blatant human rights abuse. Whats it going to take anyways? Are we forgetting about inmates being human beings irregardless of there crimes? Apparently so. I can not believe that mentally ill(disabled) (and lets not forget the new legislation President Obama just signed to protect disabled people)inmates are being locked up and isolated for an eternity at a time and no one is being held accountable? Where is the accountability for Americas Prison Systems? Granted these are not the type of people you want your kid to bring home to mom and dad, but for gosh sake, they are humans and humans have rights, all of them..
