I am NOT making this up! the prison was packed with BLACK MEN! not a White face prisoner in sight! these Black men looked as if they were trapped for life! some of the men sound as if they were Screaming out for help! this did NOT look right at all!<br><br>I will never forget what the White Warden said, his word's were(these men are NOT here to be Rehabilitated! so we don't spend money on trying to get them to enter back into Society! his last word's were, these men are here for Life! and trust me, he meant every word he said!<br><br>Yes, when it come's to Black men, it is a double standard, White men can commit some of the worse crime's you can imagine, and they get out in a couple of year's or they don't do anytime at all!if they do get time, and get released, a job is waiting for them! not only that, but, some will roam around in society and Kill people, and then after they have killed up enough people, then they Finally get caught! this go's on all the time!<br><br>ISEEISEEAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4387769022605188676.post-69173174155366272642010-02-13T19:15:35.852-08:002010-02-13T19:15:35.852-08:00Not a White prisoner in sight!

Same exact thing! They incarcerate the men and leave the women and children bereft of a husband and father! they destry the family.

This system is so slanted toward continuation of punishing the offenders. Like one commenter just stated: its imperitive to let our young people know that getting in trouble is a life long anchor. Being a Black male in the ice (sic) age, I can attest to how small infractions can be lifelong punishment. Upon coming from the war, in 1070 I had the misfortune to take a friend I had not seen in three years to a store. While waiting for him to come out the store-it ws suppose to be a pit stop- I saw him run past my car. I was charged and convicted with misdemeanor shoplifting even though I had nothiong in my car nor went in the store. I appealed that case for a year ,,in those days... what a white man said in court was the gospel. Now 38 years later, I still have to put that bogus infraction down each time the question is- "have you ever been convicted of any..?". Are you also aware that seeing that misdemeanors are not "in acourt of record"- this infraction is not able to be removed. In Va, 1 out of 100 felonies are exornorated..so dont depend on that avenue for relief. One more thing... with the high percentage of Blacks being falsely convicted on these highl scrutinized cases by error...think maybe the lowers cases got to have a wider margine of error for more false convictions. One day I will comment about my legal situations as a Panther.

All the Black males had their shirts off and they have about 120 males in a pen designed to hold 40. That image will stay in your mind for a long time. Being a Black male with young adult sons, I am so fearful, because I know society AND the system sees me/my sons as them. I dare say over half of these guys are in for not being able to post those bogus bails. Which now the bail/bondsmen dont what to have released/pretrial progams,,,because they want to make money off bonds. I wish all Blacks realize we are just "crop" for the system. Too many people make money off of our misdeeds.StillaPanther2noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4387769022605188676.post-80841012389906712742010-02-15T04:43:40.271-08:002010-02-15T04:43:40.271-08:00I'm with you panther,the whole system is a tri...I'm with you panther,the whole system is a trick for those not educated about how it works.I sometimes hear so of our young men and women brag about how they can do five years standing on their heads.When I hear that line I in turn just shake my head!BigmacInPittsburghhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13727923795293367521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4387769022605188676.post-87953921716868391542010-02-15T08:45:50.388-08:002010-02-15T08:45:50.388-08:00Yeah, like Richard Pryor used to say "you go ...Yeah, like Richard Pryor used to say "you go down to the courthouse expecting to see justice and that's all you see "just us".<br><br>The story is rather disturbing, apparently this woman has anger issues and they've manifested themselves at least a few times in her life.<br><br>SMDH!!!Reggiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02228963124180428762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4387769022605188676.post-7840058773774396862010-02-15T10:32:28.933-08:002010-02-15T10:32:28.933-08:00Cactusrose:Prisons are modern day Plantations. Peo...Cactusrose:<br><br>Prisons are modern day Plantations. People need to read the constitution and all the amendments. The thirteenth amendment says this:<br><br>"Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, EXCEPT as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."<br><br>People tend to overlook or ignore the word "EXCEPT" in the 13th amendment. But it is telling you right there that it is abolished IF you DO NOT commit a crime. Of course involuntary servitude refers to white folks. However, slavery applies to nonwhite folks. In other words, it is like it was back in slavery days blacks were slaves for LIFE, but whites only served so many years in indentured servitude and were given freedom. Nothing has changed in America. Capitalism and the politics of America are the same. "Money is the ROOT of all EVIL".<br><br>I know the games of America's establishment. Every chance I get I try to teach young people the games so that they can avoid the pits and snares of America's system. Their life and livelihood depends on them knowing them or they are doom to failure.<br><br>Children need to be taught the Constitution and all of the amendments until they know them by heart because every law and rule in America is rooted in politics and capitalism and slanted in favor of whites and not in favor of minorities, which includes Hispanics/Latinoes, Asians, Arabs, and Iranians.GrannyStandingforTruthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17427949558167014793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4387769022605188676.post-83089745736574235032010-02-15T10:38:58.566-08:002010-02-15T10:38:58.566-08:00*The LOVE of money is the ROOT of ALL EVIL* Sorry,...*The LOVE of money is the ROOT of ALL EVIL* <br><br><br>Sorry, I left out the Native Americans and Eastern Indians but they are included in minority too.GrannyStandingforTruthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17427949558167014793noreply@blogger.com
