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.

    Kinda. They keep roadblocking me from even have a look into what I am spending my spare time and effort for. My brother was their about 2 years ago and the only books they had were a tiny cart of law books that you could only access at about midnight for 15 minutes.

      You have the answer to your question right there. They won’t let you look at it because they don’t have one and are not at all interested in having one.

      Prisons in the US are intended to punish people, not rehabilitate them. If you actually want change you’ll likely need to petition the governor or state representatives to sponsor legislation to make properly stocked libraries a requirement.

      But good luck because that would be “being soft on crime” which is political suicide in many places.

      Won’t your donation be even more meaningful if it turns out they don’t have much now?

      Why do you need to know that they already have a good library before you’ll help improve their library?
