ACLU: Up periscope!

The good folks in Idaho must be smoking some locoweed or something. They are a little short of funds to support their prison population so they are considering "hot bunking". That is, prisoners sleeping in shifts like the US military sometimes does. The US silent service doesn't do this sometimes, the submariners do it all the time. State Sen. Robert Geddes, the silly simpleton, asks,

"Why does every inmate need his or her own bed? The military does it all the time."

Well, the reason that you can't do it, my dear soul, is that by the time the ACLU gets through with you, you'll be supplying every prisoner with a queen-size brass canopy bed, that's why. Best drop this before you end up in worse shape than you are now.
