Do you even have a clue what you are talking about?

A couple of decades ago hundreds of women wrote to the Justice Department about the sexual abuse they suffered at the hands of correctional staff and what would happen if they threatened to report it. One story, documented in Bryan Stevenson's Just Mercy, described a woman r*ped and impregnated by a correctional officer then separated from her child after its birth. The officer was simply fired, no charges or anything.

Prisoners are beat all the time. Plenty of cases of that.

Prisoners are often ignored when they cry for help, and correctional staff deny them access to the medical staff because they insist symptoms are being faked or that they are a threat to the security. Many have died because they couldn't get care while incarcerated.

Prisoners are 6.4 times more likely to suffer from a food-related illness than people not imprisoned.

Yes I know what I'm talking about.

You DO know what Biden has done as far as sexual assault cases being handled on college campuses... right? Learn your recent history.

College students aren’t in positions of authority and protected by an apparatus of prison personnel, plus the Department of Corrections and other institutions.

I think that they deserve to heal, and that can't be done with the prisoner locked up.

So are you going to question God on their judgement day? You clearly have never been a victim of a serious crime. Im not condoning rape, beatings or anything near that. But I think a majority of America is sick and tired of white supremacy bullshit. I've made mistakes in my life and spent a good bit of my youth in jails. It's not a pretty world. So you need to bitch about the inmates as well. Your always gonna have dirty cops and racism. Its part of the devils plan. It a world that we are born into sin. It's also part of devils plan to divide each other. The white supremacy bullshit is a tool that you liberals are stoking everyday. America as a whole is not racist. White people, cops as a whole are not racist.

State power is rich coming from liberals and democratic agenda. Bigger government is always their agenda. That's ridiculous to think democrats have no corruption. Just conservatives. Absolutely ridiculous. Those squeaky clean liberals

Police as an institution are racist. This has been demonstrated by multiple studies. It literally isn’t even just individual officers, it’s the system as a whole. Black and other minority communities feel the brunt of predictive policing and other new criminalization measures. Police of all races shoot black and brown people at the same rate. Diversifying the police has shown to have no change to racialized outcomes.

Since police have not been policing a lot of inner city communities, crime has risen, leaving the innocent citizens at the subject to the will of the criminals.

That isn’t even true? Police patrol marginalized city communities all the time. That’s literally where their funding goes. It’s part of their strategy of predictive policing to stop and arrest and incarcerate black and latinx bodies.

I was referring to the title of your illegible meme.

Great... but that was decades ago. I don't give a rip. Nothing can be done about that now.

We don't have the luxury. Right now, in today's USA, we are being assailed by a government that wants to put more restrictions on its citizens, who haven't broken any laws, while those in power within the government breaks the very laws that they impose on us. At the same time, they are letting convicted felons out of prisons, and jailing those who won't wear a mask or who want to open their businesses and provide jobs and make an honest living. The "authorities" won't even arrest and charge looters and shoplifters.

Let's fix that problem, let's secure the border, let's imprison some of the rule-makers who fragrantly abuse their powers or violate their oaths of office, and start arresting looters and shoplifters. Then, I might be able to concentrate my attentions and sympathies for those who are incarcerated.

You make an extremely valid point in that the government commits the very same crimes the prosecute civilians for. The government is responsible for the worst two crimes in existence: the annihilation of individual liberty and upholding the thievery that is the capitalist wage system, which trickles wealth towards the top and keeps the masses deprived and dispossessed.

It is not true that they don’t arrest looters and retail thieves. The FBI went to great lengths to track down and incarcerate activists from last summer’s demonstrations.

I don’t see how your solutions solve anything. Immigration controls have always had racist intentions, since the first attempts at controlling the Chinese immigrant population, then the latinx population from Mexico in the 1950s resulting in “Operation Wetback”. It is because of fear of miscegenation and America becoming something other than a white supremacist nation. Immigrants aren’t violent and don’t deserve to be demonized.

I understand that the rioter and the looter take significant risk in their form of protest, running the risk of arrest and I champion it and feel empathy. Their actions are an act of resistance against intolerable injustice inherent in our oppressive institutions of government. The rioter and the looter are better than the bystander, who remains silent in the face of oppression and injustice.

Are you insane? The FBI did no such thing.

"The rioter and the looter are better than the bystander, who remains silent in the face of oppression and injustice."

Oh...So, in that case, if I happen to see a looter and rioter, rather than stand there as a bystander, to be better, perhaps I should just shoot them. That way, I won't be " silent in the face of injustice".

I like it!

Tell you what, Trayvon...don't Burn, Loot, & Murder and you won't catch any lead or end up in prison.

How about giving that a try.

It is very unlikely these days that he will end up in prison. You have to be a toxic white male terrorist to be kept in solitary these days. Maybe even a white female MAGA hat wearer.

Rules of Engagement according to most state laws allow one to use lethal force if they are inside the building that so being burgulsrized or set on fire.

If someone is in a building being set on fire a bystander can use lethal force to stop the perpetrators from killing those in the building.

If no one is in danger of serious bodily harm or death a person may use reasonable force to stop someone in the act of a felony.

The death penalty has never been a deterrent for crime. In fact, states without the death penalty have a lower homicide rate than those that do.

It gives the thug a nice dirt nap and prevents further crimes by him/her.

Do you care that 1 in every 9 condemned prisoners are exonerated after evidence revealed their innocence? The death penalty has a huge margin of error.

Exonerated!

No it doesn’t. If people didn’t challenge the system successfully, they would still wind up executed, and that has happened still for many likely innocent condemned prisoners. Look at Nathaniel Woods for example who was executed in Alabama last year despite never having shot the firearm.

Is that like the Indiana man that legally purchased a firearm, crossed into Illinois, sold the gun to a thug, who then shot two police officers, critically wounding one and killing the other?

The Indiana man never fired the gun, but is just as guilty as the one that did.

As a responsible gun owner and an Indiana resident, I hope they fry his a**!

You realize that the article you linked, regarding slander, itself slanders Tucker Carlson?

When a "journalist" cannot refrain from committing the same act they're condemning someone for IN THE VERY ARTICLE THEY'RE WRITING TO CONDEMN IT, you must consider the source biased.
