Can you do life in prison?

White. Small. Straight. Nope.

I'd have to kill some poor bastard as soon as I got in there. And that would just start a chain event leading to my death a week later.

I think I'd rather just off myself before I even arrived. Save a lot of heartache and grief.
 
If you were a violent gay guy, prison would probably be the best place ever.

Because regardless of if you're the one doing the raping or you're the one getting raped, it's instant win.
 
I doubt I would make it long. Even if people leave me alone, I'd just be so retarded bored I'd probably snap my neck between the bars to end it all or something. I'd see if I can slowly grind off the cement between an outside brick with my nail, and after about a year I'd have enough of it removed so I can loosen a few bricks up and fit through. The beauty of being small eh. That probably would not work though, I'm sure they'd notice. 😛
 
no fucking way...unless maybe it was like one of those prisons for the super rich and famous where you still get to do whatever the fuck you want.

Yeah, I'd do something crazy.

I think I could adapt and live relatively safely. I'm quick to change personality style to meet the demands of the situation - usually. Being the whole kill or be killed aspect, regular adaptation speed wouldn't even matter, I'd probably look and act in a way that completely fits the bill of a life sentence inmate.

Mostly because if I got life in jail, my already present traits of not really caring about the aspect of life, would shine there. I wouldn't care, and I'd probably do shit that put my neck on the line if whatever I did didn't work out.

Day 1 though would probably be rough with a few painful cornhole moments. I'd probably immediately mask the initial fear with an appearance of cockiness without meaning to do so.

But shit, I'd probably try and devise some insane breakout attempt with either other people or on my own if I was able to last long enough to concoct such a plan. That preferably I'd rather do it without a plan, and as much as I respect law enforcement, I'd probably have to assault a few guards if whatever lack-of-plan went due south just to make sure that, if I am not to escape, I am to be killed on the spot, and the assaulting of said guards are just moving the pieces in the right spot to either succeed or be killed. Can't afford to just get the shit pummeled out of me to the point that I don't walk again. No fun in that - can't try it again and can't get myself into any more do or die plots. 😛

Figure I'm in for life with no chance of bail. And I sure as hell as spending all my days cooped up like that, hellllll no. So, either they get my life or I get my ass out of there one way or another. 😀

You go in for life...and that's exactly what they take.

Is this a quote from movie?

I can picture Clint Eastwood saying this but with a "bub" at the end of it.

If I knew I had life in prison, no chance of bail, I'd kill myself. Its as simple as that.

id kill everyone around me until they separated me from general pop. if in the course of attempting that i came across one i couldnt kill, they would end up killing me, solving the issue anyway. having spent some time behind bars, im pretty sure id be ok. ive still got a list of people i could call for introductions and whatnot.
