Children, even those who commit crimes, should never be imprisoned with adults!

Kids don't belong in maximum security prisons. Please stop the transfer.

I oppose putting juvenile inmates in adult maximum-security prisons, or otherwise treating them as adult inmates. Elected officials should support inmate programs which emphasize rehabilitation instead of punishment, especially in the case of juveniles.

This will only create adult criminals, if they survive. Please don't do this to kids who have lost their way, they deserve a chance to rehabilitate.

Governor Edwards, .... how could you even think of sending children to Angola?! Cruelest thing I've ever heard! DO NOT DO THIS. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR WHATEVER HAPPENS TO THESE CHILDREN, IF YOU FOLLOW THROUGH AND DO THIS. DO NOT DO THIS!!!

Appalling that Americans would send children to a maximum security adult prison. Despicable. Don't do it! Please!!

Make a different choice - invest in kids, hope and care, instead of punishment.

Take the jail system from the stock exchange. It has done nothing but created lawlessness associated with "money".

Confining juveniles in such a prison is not the way to correct and punish bad behavior. It will surely not return them to their communities to be responsible, law abiding citizens. What about humane juvenile justice?

Children should not be housed with adult criminals.
