    More Word Choices: Ex-Cons and the Formerly Incarcerated

    This really stood out to me! My fiance like I stated in the artice about "inmates" and "offenders" is 21 and a sex offender for something that goes on every day!!! It really out rages me that some "sex offenders" who did not sexually offend anyone must be labeled as such a bad thing forever! Yes I do believe that in some cases there are people that need to be forever labeled as such a thing, but EVERYONE can change! and it is not fair to those who didnt truly hurt anyone to be cut off from society in such harsh ways.

    A Choice of Words: Prisoner, Inmate or Offender

    I never really thought about what we called a "prisoner" but the other terms are quite harsh. I have my fiance who is in jail for willingly sleeping with 2 girls who were 4 years younger then him, he was 20 and they 16. He is called an "inmate" and he was charged with 2 counts of sexual assault on a "child" and he had so serve 180 days jail time, with 10 years probation...he is also a registered sex offender. I believe the justice system DOES not seek justice at all, they simply judge based on their feelings that day...or that is how I feel...feel free to comment Id like your opinions...
