    You misunderstand. Transitioning in jail is akin to a prison tattoo, it only makes them more dangerous and likely to reoffend. I’m not being facetious, that is likely their intended meaning

          Is there any evidence that either one of the bolded claims are true? You are explicitly claiming that both getting a tattoo in prison and transitioning in prison will increase a prisoner’s likelihood of recidivism. I’m curious if you have evidence to back this up, or if this is a ‘common sense’ sort of claim.

          E: I may have mistook sarcasm for genuine opinion.

        I’m just remarking on the way everything about an inmate can be interpreted as an aspect of their recidivism, but particularly on the daily mail. Like a 24/7 interview. My favorite used to be “converted to Islam.” Like, just let them be. Or harangue the US penal system about improving conditions and education in prison, if you really want to get involved, daily mail.
