Why won't they let us help?

At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not dedicated to helping wherever we can, especially when it keeps people with criminal intent from being able to accomplish their horrid designs.  In this case, a cat was being used to smuggle supplies to prisoners in Brazil.  We strongly suspect that the cat's heart wasn't in the task, as otherwise he would not likely have been caught, which is why we wonder why the prison officials continue to insist that the cat can't help them as he can't talk when we have repeatedly offered the use of our thought translation device.  It's sad that people have such biases that they won't even take advantage of half-baked technology that may or may not help them.
