No. I’m not. That’s why I know Ebonics when I hear it.

Build it on federal land somewhere.

I prefer the SuperMax concept that they have in Florence, Colorado. Alcatraz sounds kind of fun, and it's got a storied history, but it's not practical or economical.

This is stupid. Alcatraz was closed because it was a crumbling, expensive mess.

If you want to build a new federal super duper unescapeable prison, stick it in a dessert somewhere, or just expand Florance ADX.

You would spend a lot of money refurbishing it.....
I got a better idea...
Take that cash and construct a prison in antarctica with windows that can remotely be opened...

No problems, and if someone wants to escape...
Let them

I agree, and I also agree. Build a prison on one of our remote islands here in AK. There would be essentially zero chance of breaking out.

Well bless your heart!
