How many DUers are in the market for maximum security detention cells?

1. And who the hell is these cells for? Maybe we should contact them to find out who buys these..hmmm
"Our steel cells are easy to install. Once you have your layout down and leveled you just need a small boom truck to lift them into place. On average our cells weigh less than 6,000 pounds.

Our customers may also specify what options they wish to have. One idea is the in cell shower. This allows for greater safety and with our design cost will not be a determinging factor.

Maximum Security Systems cell is also flexible enough to meet almost any dimensional size our customer may require. Do not hesitate to contact us"

4. I think they're for jails and "youth correctional facilities." But I don't understand
why they're using google ads.

6. And just why would you post the link to the site that you seem to object to?
Just curious; and no, I won't click through.

7. It's not so much an objection, as I'm just wondering about who it is they are targeting
through Google ads. I mean, wouldn't you wonder who the target audience for maximum detention cells?

8. I've no idea; I can turn off the ads.
You can too for as low as $5 bucks.

10. It has nothing to do with turning on or off ads, nor am I complaining about of ads in general.
I was merely pointing out the MARKETING OF MAXIMUM SECURITY PRISON CELLS, which raises issues far beyond those of ads or donations to DU. Or so I would hope.

9. I've got space in my basement.
It's a little damp down there, but I could hold 10-12 prisoners - or 20-24 if they double up.
