Question #1: In certain shows such as "Blue Bloods" and "Cops" you can compare and contrast how cops act on TV and how they do in real life. Some similar things is both cops were dealing with scary and strong criminals. On the other hand, Blue Blood was dealing with criminals who were killers and really smart. On Cops, most of these people were dealing with drug busts, trying to put dealers behind bars.
Question #2: I think the privitation of prisons does more harm than good. Since it's a business, they need prisoners to do work for them. They need to keep up the amount of people in these prisons. If people are starting to get out of jail faster than people are coming in, this could harm their business so they'll want to wrongfully keep these people in. I would never consider owning a prison because I would not want to deal with the scary criminals in jail. To make these prisons better, they would just have to be fair to those people who deserved to get out when their supposed to.
