  1. Realize people use false churches as a representation of the church, this is sad. That terminology the church is not what people think.

  2. They should all be given a second chance because they are products of this corrupt and wicked system.

  3. THEY SHOULD BE EMPLOYED AND BE ABLE TO LIVE AND WORK JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE !!! IF THEY WANT TO TURN OVER A NEW LEAF THEY SHOULD BE TREATED IN A FAIR AND POSITIVE WAY

  4. Some of them deserve a second chance, but certainly not all of them. The fact is, a lot of them were given several chances to turn their life around prior to being incarcerated, so by the time they’ve been released their second chance had long since past them by.

  5. You cant just give second chances to random killers just because they feel sorry. They should stay in the prison and face their consequences like everybody else.

  6. Prison should be about rehabilitation not to make them worse, jamaica needs to get their act together otherwise we will suffer bigger than what we are experiencing.

  7. God is forgiving, merciful and compassion when you turn it all over to him he will exalt you.for what youve been through , you have to be one of God’s chosen. The devil knows that . Just repent of your sins and turn. To him.The word of God says who the son set free is free indeed.God will turn your mess into a message.you are God’s chosen dont worry about the church , pray without ceasing and study the word of God.

  8. Not everyone can be given a second chance. The mindset of many ppl cannot be changed. The question is how you going to know deserves a second chance from who doesn’t?
