Why am I getting ragged on. It just takes me a little bit to get my point across. If you have another way to post it I am all ears. And free books.

How are all your posts like this… how are you a nurse???
I’m really doubting that they have read any of those books.
No I haven’t read anyone of the books. I just want to start a good library for the prisoners so they have something to do besides fight or give guards grief. And if this goes well would like to start a GED program.
Please read some of the books before you give them away. You have a fair bit to learn about the English language before you should consider teaching it.
Jfc just let the person do a nice thing
Lol, why the elitism here? It doesn’t seem like OP is trying to do anything bad.
They’re looking down on people while using terrible English.
I think they’re more looking down on the jail itself for not having many books.
As well, writing ability does not indicate someone’s overall level of capabilities.
I don’t think it’s elitist to say that you should read books before you build a library. That’s just good advice. And it’s fair to wonder if someone who cannot string a sentence together reads many books.
The elitist part was saying that someone should learn more about the English language before trying to help others learn.
They didn’t merely"wonder" if someone read many books. They were dismissing someone’s desire to donate books and help people.
Okay, that was condescending. Elitist just didn’t seem like the right word to me.
That’s fair!
Definitely not being elitist. It is elitist for OP to assume they need to “educate” individuals in jail because they’re a nurse. I’m a social worker and have worked with people of all backgrounds including incarcerated. I’ve learned something from every person I’ve worked with and I only teach things within my scope of expertise.
Cool. I was in prison and read a lot in prison. I was very happy that people donated those books and couldn’t give one flying fuck if they wanted me to learn something or not.
I’m surprised that a social worker would be saying “You have a fair bit to learn about the English language” to someone who is looking to donate books to a prison…
Where did I say i was going to teach english.??
This is crazy
A:: I am a nurse. B: Used to be way worse and signing up for contracts that pay the most like 96 hour shifts. Sometimes I get bored and just like to toss in a subject out or question so I can read the replies. And usually not on a laptop or computer. II guess you call me a fisherwoman to reel in replies. Some are very inciteful some our stupid but everytime there is just one that I save so I can read it over and over again to kill time.
