Well i think thats all about what kind of person you are mate. If your fortunate to have a house, a job, a partner and all the mod cons then maybe going to jail you miss all that stuff and never want to do it again....on the other hand you have folk who have nothing going for them and doing a jail stint is a walk in the park.....theres plenty of them that repeat offend just to get back in... A friend of mines mate is constantly in and out of jail.....says its a piece of piss. He is out on bail for blootering some c**t with a crowbar in his own house, he'll be going away for a long time this
