Can I come work for you? I'm being serious. Thanks 😊.

@@Liefvikerson I work for a large commercial diving company that contracts with drillships. I suggest you get certified. Once you start you will get many connections.

We're Not Finished Yet yea so let's feed them and clothe them for the rest of there lives, instead of spending less money to turn them into productive members of society. I think this type of training shude be available to everyone, but these people need it the most.

@We're Not Finished Yet Realistically is that whole punishment model working but because the US really pushes that thinking but yet it has the highest incarcerated population per capita? I mean sure you shouldn't be rewarding criminals but at least this way they're most likely going to have stable jobs when they finish their sentence and be less likely to reoffend and end up back in prison (which actually costs taxpayers quite a bit per inmate), also it means they can begin to pay taxes and add to the system.

A noose works best of all.

We're Not Finished Yet we could just have these people finance their own compulsory rehabilitation. We give them a way out, they eventually pay us for the opportunity. After all they do owe their new productive lives to the system. And if they fail and end up in prison again, well we would be paying for it one way or an other. At least some of these guys can help pay their way out and help us pay for the rest of the filth that cannot be helped (read rehabilitated).

Incarceration is still necessary because of the crime committed.

I mean there are pedophiles,murderers and rapists in prison soooo.........

@@bulmachan1438 they're human too. Otherwise the system would've fed them to the meat grinder

@@bulmachan1438 there are also people who just didn't pay their taxes, how are they really a danger to society?

Mike Baggs did I say anything about ppl who didn’t do their taxes no I said pedophiles and murderers and rapists

@@bulmachan1438 I imagine that these men are chosen with care, they are probably non-violent offenders, stuck in prison for being caught with a joint in their car, not paying their taxes, money laundering etc. Not rapists and serial killers. Calm down.

Oh yea yea deep in my ass

Just go

Thank you bleach

No

The sad truth smh

Not really. I read a study that said that only 2% of the rehabilitation training that used to exist in prison is still available for inmates. It's not right to commit crimes but wouldn't it be amazing if everyone had a 6% return to prison rate, like the inmates in the video. That's 94 people out of 100 that tax payers don't have to support if you want to look at it by the numbers.

Kim trust me Ive done a load of research on recidivism and this a great stride in the right direction.

more freedom on the outside though

*than

They should do this for all citizens, not just inmates.

@@ATiOX I totally see your point but the idea here is to stop these men from returning to society only to prey on people again. It is a way to protect the public at large. Also, suspect that these men are chosen with care, presumably they are not 'the worst of the worst'.

@@ATiOX Always appreciate a 'heads up'. Be kind of you to let me know where the 'many' grammatical errors in the above comment are. always ready to improve.😊

@@ATiOX Law abiding citizens do have access. There are several commercial dive schools around the country.

lmao

Nice

Where

And you paid for all your lesson out of your own pocket?.

@Ira Hughes congratulations. Are you going to make it your career?

You are being short-sighted. Would prefer these guys to be released with no chance of gainful employment, just so that they can commit another crime within the community and return to prison which ends up costing the taxpayer a fortune? Further... the majority of your tax dollars go to support the super rich who pay virtually no taxes and still get massive refunds.

You are incorrect sir... Check your facts.

I was a commercial diver in the Gulf of Mexico from 1971 through 1979, and I returned to the business as a consultant & inspector from 1996 through 2008. I lost 3 friends to diving accidents. Two of these deaths were helium related. (Helium is used in deep diving with the appropriate oxygen percentage mix to prevent nitrogen narcosis that can begin to set in at roughly 150-170 feet, depending of course on one's tolerance.) I was also on one job where a young man died making his very first dive (he was sent pure helium in error), but to say there is a 7-year life span for divers is completely wrong. Now if you are actually saying that the average CAREER span is 7 years, then this is possible since many burn out or fail to get the job opportunities they need to survive. (It ain't all gravy.) And now, with offshore oil exploration & production winding down, the diving business would be a tough job to be successful at unless you have a knack for being in the right place at the right time and be highly skilled in this profession. Ever try to flange up a surging 20-inch pipeline in zero visibility? You don't learn this in a swimming pool.

They deserve a second chance
