According to the Warden and in one case the Judge that banned D&D from Hou Homecoming 2022 Shirt it’s because they believe D&D could lead to escape plans and gangs, respectively. But I can tell you of another circumstance of D&D being banned in prisons for a different reason… So I did time and played a lot of D&D in prison. D&D is a very big deal in prison. In the federal system, they have something called the “Creative Minds Program” and it’s a program that some prisons have that allow inmates to purchase things like board games, card games (including Magic Cards) and, yes, D&D items to play. My prison didn’t have it but we got a good CO down at rec eventually who got it going for us as a pilot program. She even let us order dice with rec funds and people who had them got special thematic cards that gave them permission to have them.
