Solitary Confinement

Quarantine is not fun, and we all know that. But what’s worse? Being in prison. Prisoners only get 1/24 of a day (or 1 hour) outside in the ADX, a famous prison known for its secureness. Now you might be like, well that’s not too bad compared to quarantine! At least you get to go outside for 1 hour, and you get to rest for basically the whole day (although everybody wants to do something now and then). In quarantine, we do countless hours of work on the computer, with not much time to rest. However, you DO get to look outside and see the brightness of the sun, and all of the grass, maybe your garden. For prisoners, they never see even plain grass or the mountains behind the prison. For the other 23 hours, even a glimpse of something living is lucky. Think about that! Also, because they can’t see much, they’re eyesight is much worse, and can’t focus on things far away. Now you see why prisons are worse than quarantine, right? But wait! There’s still more! Prisoners are tortured, which is also known as solitary confinement. This is a violation of human rights! There are not many things we can do, however, because most of this torture is happening behind prison walls, where only the government can see what’s happening, and the public has no idea about it.
