No that's not a jail it's a torture device let's be honest. You can like it all you want but it's not simply a jail, it's designed to drive the inmates insane.
No Calico, it's JAil that is designed to stop him escaping and in the abscence of the death penalty it is the next best thing to stopping him re-offending since he wont be leaving there - ever no matter what the bleeding heart brigade say.
You can make an inescapable jail without including the aspects that make it mental and emotional torture. All of these things are well documented.
I've got no problem with it being inescapable at all, of course it should be, nor actually do I particularly care, it's just all those glorying in how harsh it is are doing so because they get slightly turned on at the notion of how cruel it is. Interesting to watch the admiration swell I must say.
