Putting gang members in a single facility could give them an opportunity to network with each other, Saskatchewan's corrections minister, Darryl Hickie, said earlier this week.


I was hoping they'd network some shivs into each others' bellies.

This idea is a lot like my "Gang Super Island" idea... where we put all gangs on an island, then we arm them, and then we record and sell advertising space.

Gladiators - an idea that's no less worthy for being old.

If it had exploding neck pieces to prevent the gang members from getting off the island then yeah, that movie stole my idea there too.

If they put it up at resolute they wouldn't need fences or guards. You want to escape, take a walk.

Bad idea. But seriously, if they they are new to Canada then just deport them. Simple as that. If they come up with something about being persecuted in their home country. Then they should have behaved here.

I have to agree with Mr. Hickie here.

Putting a bunch of people accused of organized crime into a single place where they can all get together and organize just has bad idea written all over it.

If anything these people need to be kept as isolated as possible. From the outside world and their contemporaries in jail.

It must be "See how many threads MacDaddy77 can start" day.

Not that there is anything wrong with that. It is just interesting when someone with 105 posts suddenly starts 3 4 threads in a day.

30 of your 105 posts are starting threads.

Well maybe we need to work them really hard so they don't have time or the energy to organize. How about they build a highway out of pebbles to the antarctic one stone at a time by hand.

You're going to let them use their hands? You getting soft?

Can we give them cars, put machine guns and rocket launchers on the and then let them race around the place?

There might be money in this idea too!

In all seriousness. I'm actually a bit of a stickler for human rights. However, I see nothing wrong with forcing criminals to do manual labour. Especially when it's the time of crime that has such a negative overall effect on society like organized crime.

Think of all the gang banging that'd go on in that correctional facility.
