| Top Hat (OP) Top Hat User ID: 21193851 11/13/2012 08:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When I was a Correctional Officer at Statesville, near Chicago, the inmates were nearly in control. We guards barely ran the joint. I took away from the experience that prisoners basically consent, for their protection too, to be governed by the prison officials as long as the social contract between guards and prisoners are strangely "tolerable." The minute a guard violated that contract, their throats were cut, and the house went on lock-down for some months until the contract was restored. That experience taught me that that same consent and contract exists outside the prison walls as well. We expect our government to uphold its social contract with us or we too can invoke the Reeper, and we too can be put in lock-down. The public jail-house, America, is at the same primed boiling-point, level of discontent that I felt in Statesville before an outbreak of rage by non-consenting prisoners who reminded us that we were barely in charge.

Black/Hispanic gangs are too fucking stupid to figure it out even though they have the numbers elsewhere. How you turn this into a conversation about race? Shows a lot about you... |

Black/Hispanic gangs are too fucking stupid to figure it out even though they have the numbers elsewhere. This has always been the way it is. As a correctional officer you do not carry a weapon, and recognize that everyday you set foot in there, you are in their home. The prison systems require that there is a great amount of respect, otherwise the guards are out numbered, usually 100 inmates to every one guard. Almost every prisoner does have a weapon. And you fail to give credit where credit is due. Most of the leaders of these gangs are very intelligent, they just choose the wrong path in life. It's the minions that are idiots. |
