In Mississippi at Parchman farm trustees if full leg stripe could carry a shotgun or 30-30 on work detail
The old days
And lived in trustee village with street food and women
Not a bad gig for the joint
My cousin spent most his adult life there
Lower income folks are pretty fat in our Dixie
But it’s that way everywhere except high altitude in the USA
Fat pasty women with tattoos and bastard children
That’s wall mart America today
Pitiful
Very few fat folks when I grew up
In lower class white Tennessee average woman is 75-100 pounds overweight and unkempt
On SDI and selling their pain meds
Maybe working hourly
Maybe
