Apparently they found a guy asking others if they wanted to play D&D (which is a ballsy thing to do IN PRISON!!) and took away his books and stuff. They said it promoted gang-related activity.
Sadly, what they fail to realize is that those who play D&D are LESS likely to break the law or cause trouble. Have to find the link on these stats again as it's been about 15 years since I saw them.
I understand if they don't let him have miniatures or stuff like that, but it's just books!
(And before you start on the fact this guy is a convicted murderer and that we shouldn't feel sorry for him, I get that. Besides, his sister lied to the police a few times and they say she may have done it and framed her brother. Either way at the very least he's a bank robber.)
