Prison Guard Freed in Hostage Crisis

That is how news is titled when it talks about how two prison guards are held hostage by inmates. Now this is going to be a long entry which cites many other entries just to show how biased this news is...

First off I will state there are many companies which have an interest in prison privatization, which will allow them to extract profit off jails. The catch is that they need a growing prison population to make greater returns for shareholders...think how FUCKED UP that is.

I also offer you the fact that a half hour talk with my sister on the phone costs me $50 thanks to the fucking digusting greed driven Consolidated Public Services. They sent me a letter requesting that I authorize my monthly phone fee to be raised above $100. Feel free to curse these greedy fucking pigs out at
1-800-235-4416.

I would also like to be charged more to help my sister have minimal enjoyment in her life. Lucky for me the price of cigarettes went up 35% this January. In addition the price of all other items (such as toothpaste and soap) went up 25% this January.

Did you know that due to the negligence of these stupid fucking prison guards many people in jail die. For example read here and here. Those are parts of a few letters that my sister sent me in the last few months.

I also can not visit my sister. My social security card was in Connecticut and I could not see my sister in Illinois because it was not with me. Prior to going out to sea (in support of our country) again I wanted to visit my sister one last time. I cursed them out after they yelled at me. I remember leaving that place crying because I could not visit my sister. I still can't. Feel free to call or send hate mail:
1098 1350th Street
P.O. Box 549
Lincoln, Il 62656
Phone: (217) 735-5411
Tell the warden she sucks!

It gets better though. The reason my sister is in jail is that she was found guilty for a murder she did not commit. There was no physical evidence. The girl who was killed was raped and murdered. They tested all the people that were with my sister and the DNA did not match. We are to believe that my sisters friend had such a bad day that she was raped, dumped by the side of the road, and then later murdered that same day by a group of her friends.

Not only is my sister completely innocent, found guilty on NO PHYSICAL EVIDENCE , but also many of the people in jail are there as non violent drug offenders.

Nevermind the fact that you will likely again see commercials linking drug use to terrorism. Nevermind the fact that there are many (obviously true) statements about Bush being brought up on drug charges while he was a draft dodging deserter from the reserves.

I was attached to the USS Dallas as a nuclear reactor operator. I was defending this same system that was destroying my family and mind and people wondered why I tried "accidentally" killing myself a few times.

If you ask me I think more negligent prison guards should be killed for the torture they place inmates through.

We can look at the cross section of a jail and read the numbers. Where a college once stood we now have jails such as Lincoln Correctional Center. Here are the vital stats
Opened: September 1984
Capacity: 500
Level 4: Medium-Security Female
Average Daily Population: 941
Total Average Daily Population: 941
Average Age: 35
Average Annual Cost Per Inmate: $22,268.00

What you don't see are the lives wasted behind those numbers. You don't get to see me cry thinking about my sister rotting in jail.

Ask yourself what is "correct" about the department of corrections.

All the above news you need not hear. Read the one bullshit news story about how the prisoners are violent and aim to destroy people in this "crisis."

Bullshit news story
