Jailbirds New Orleans is the kind of documentary that will or entertain you a lot, or that you will hate to see. You can count me in the persons that love that kind of stuff. Lyckily I never had kids, and I never will, but if I had kids I would make them watch this if I saw they were going the wrong way in life. Watching the jailbirds arguing like thirteen year old teenage girls about the most pathetic things, it's the perfect example what drugs can lead to. The before and after pictures from some of the inmates are speaking for themselves. From once a decent girl to a toothless finger missing lowlife, it's only a couple steps away. American prisons are just a mess, where there is almost no chance of rehabilitation, and this documentary shows it well. The privatization of those prisons is the worst thing to do. It's all a money making business, where they are absolutely not interested in the reintegration and education of their inmates. It's thrash tv but the kind I like to watch. It's sad but it also makes you realize how lucky we can be in life.
