"I've learned how to follow orders."
The perfect new American.

That was a line from a "reformed prisoner" on MSNBC's Lockup series.

We have the largest population segment behind bars than any other civilized nation in the world. We celebrate it.

A cell phone user has the same driving abilities as a drunk while having a conversation. They don't go to jail... That's okay, we all do it.

A marijuana seller will do more time than a guy who executes three students in Jersey.

Our prisons are choked with political prisoners in the form of knee-jerk reaction laws. Dope, Drinking, Child Supposrt... All felons that take up space that opens the door for violent felons.

Shank me, bitch.




Peaceout.
