Quoting: ~Awakened One~ exactly... things will be bad enough without a million scumbags to add to the doom. can't let them go. gotta do what they gotta do. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living. ~ Life is about choices, you get to make them each and every day of your life. ~ Capitalization is the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse and helping your uncle jack off a horse.~ Only in America... do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poloi' in Greek meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.~ “When a government is dependent for money upon the bankers, they and not the government leaders control the nation. This is because the hand that gives is above the hand that takes. Financiers are without patriotism and without decency.” If you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty you have no brain. Winston Churchill |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 26779221 United States 09/02/2014 06:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The generator was supposed to be fail safe so the sheriff's office thought the power breach was due to a break-in/break-out as all officers inside did also. Only two C.O.'s followed protocol & stayed in the pitch black day rooms with the inmates (each with about 70 to 80 inmates) with only their flashlights & pepper spray. No radios were working & auto doors to pods locked. Both officers managed to maintain control for 4 to 5 hrs. until lights went back on. And one of the officers was a female. Both officers said inmates were more afraid than they were and were easy to handle. They both got letters of commendation. Not a shtf scenario but still tense. But I think most C.O.'s would just abandon inmates to fend for themselves and not follow procedure. |

Em18966 User ID: 11688366 United States 09/02/2014 08:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I often wonder this. In a situation where the grid goes down, will they be trapped inside or let free? I have a sneaking suspicion it will be like in The Stand where they will be left in cells to rot and those who can get out may survive, but it will be an ugly motherfucking mess. Not to mention the trigger happy guards who go on shooting sprees when they realize that there is no more accountability. Fucking ugly. I assume it will be like an animal shelter before a long weekend - lots of culling to cut down on paperwork and long-term hassle. Sad that they can reduce human life to that of an unwanted stray. |

Just talking about this scenario yesterday and I had this same thought. Don't know that the staff, guards, warden, etc. would stick around to follow any kind of protocol- especially if they couldn't contact family. Many would assume someone else was handling it, some wouldn't care, and a few would relish the thought of them slowly perishing in their cells, no doubt. . |
