Let's say you got into San Quentin, based on your ethnicity, personality, and physique, how long do you think you'll last?

I'll probably be dead within a week, possibly from multiple shankings just for staring at someone "wrong".

I'll learn as much martial arts as I can before going in. So if I go down, I'm going down fighting.

I think I'd try to kill the judge at sentencing and hope the bailiff shoots and kills me.

I'd try to adapt, but they would smell the fear on me, my guess is I'd survive about 36 hours.

Hell no. I'm so restless that I'd end up shanking myself out of boredom.

ummm...(with very few exceptions) once you are sentenced to prison, there is no bail.

Bail is for after you're arrested and waiting for trial.

Yup. Chances of getting killed are low, unless one is some badass more likely to Kill. We weaker individuals make good Bitches though.

I'd never wipe so they'd steer clear of me but knowing my luck there's be some Bubba that digs that shit.

I would be passed around like a cigarette. I am 6'1" 180lbs in decent shape, but I just don't think I would last long.

Rather than "fix" your quote...

In actuality, he'd beat the snot out of you, anally rape you, and sell you to one of the gangs to pimp you out...and get a nice "piece of the action"...in more than one way. :D

Bleh, sorry. Typed too fast. I meant without a chance to appeal.

I'd die before I got off teh bus.

Assuming it wasn't a life sentence I'd rather serve my time in a supermax where it's just me myself and I in a room
