Some Inmates Need Their Cell Doors Welded Shut

[Lost_in_the_HTTP]

There are an awful lot of people in prison that should not be, but there are also too many of these guys:

In May 2018 DeLong, 28, was stabbed to death by 44-year-old Aryan Brotherhood member Robert Stockton at High Desert State Prison in Susanville, minutes after the two were placed in a cell together. The federal lawsuit, filed last year, alleges that a guard failed to check the prison’s Strategic Offender Management System (SOMS), which said DeLong was listed as an enemy of the Aryan Brotherhood.


DeLong had just months on his sentence for a burglary conviction when he was killed. Stockton was serving a life term for murder.

Weld their doors shut. No out time. No Socialization. No visitation. Only minimal food and water at irregular intervals. No windows. No sense of time, day, night, season. Let them rot.

I'll never condone torture as punishment. We either keep people like this incrassated or kill them. Years of privation makes us every bit as bad as those we're punishing.

Cruel and unusual much?

The people I'm referring to are beyond any normal definitions. They have proven themselves unredeemable.


I distinctly remember seeing a TV documentary in the 80s or 90 about a guy who was held 'under the jail' ... literally. Some kind of a special basement cell in an unused wing of a prison. Only a few people even knew he was there. At one time I found some information about it on the web and he had ultimately been transferred back into a normal prison. But since then, I haven't been able to find any trace of it.

So, you're saying the Constitution only applies to some of us?

That's exactly what he's saying and he gets to be the one to make the judgement.

Much like if you enter officers training, it matters little who what you were before joining up its gonna be the same product that comes out at the other end of the factory.
I suspect prison is the same to a large degree. Guys serving life sentences are molded by prison.
Putting him in that cell with that dude equals some level of homicide - by the guards.

Are you going for the lead in having all round shitty opinions?

A better solution might be to have more competent prison staff.

Seems odd that a person charged with burglary would be in the same prison as someone charged with murder.

There is a prison that actually has facilities almost like that. It is ADX Florence.

How about setting up an actual "aryan nation" for these whackos, they'll be happen, we'll all be happy. They can all be white and free together and have their own jails--for things like, saying kind things about darkies etc. It would be fun to see how well their economy does.


They can have Idaho, that sounds fair. Finally we have a use case for Trump's wall.

^^^ They used to call it South Africa.

(Or was it South Carolina?)
