Without much effort, I've been able to stay out of prison for over 60 years.

It ain't hard to do.

You'd be surprised at how easy it is to end up in prison.

There have been a hell of a lot of innocent people getting railroaded by prosecutors. And it's been reported more than once that prosecutorial misconduct is rampant in parts of Texas.

Default Texas Prisons Are Hot Enough to Kill You.

Tent cities in Arizona and the chain gangs don't seem to have a problem with heat, prisons are not country clubs and should be places you want to avoid.

That has been going on for years. Thing that gets me is folks will whine and scream about some dummy in gitmo who has his toilet pointing the wrong way or what have you and nobody gives a rip about the guys we put in the slam up here for having a joint on em. Well so to say.

Its simple demographics, really.

White Europeans (minus Russia), Australians, Americans, & Canadians are some of the most civilized people on Earth. Crime in Canada as well as Australia is practically non existent. Its the minorities that bring America down.
What does North Africa have to do with black people?

Sure they do - using OPM which they take at gunpoint.

I expect no more of others than I expect of myself. I haven't been arrested, convicted nor incarcerated yet!

Actions have consequences.

Sounds to me like a good reason not to break the law.

My 7 y.o. daughter was asking me about prison. I told her I remember a good movie showing how prisons should be run, so I think we'll watch Cool Hand Luke together sometime soon.
