No parole if you’re still profitable.

    I used to believe every person in prison was a bad guy who deserved it.

    Then I read about Nixon, the drug epidemic, for profit prisons and cheap labor, How those who finish their sentence are treated like second class citizens…

    Fuck for profit prisons. Legal slavery deserves to be burned to the ground. As long as one human is denied their rights we all are.

      It’s not just for profit prisons, it’s forced labor for convicts. We decided as a country that slavery is still ok if you have a conviction.

        That’s why the government makes it so easy to charge and convict people
