Just the place for the Obama Regime:

ADX Florence is a federal prison, comprising a 37-acre (15 ha), 490-bed complex at 5880 Highway 67, Florence, Colorado. It is one of three correctional facilities of the Florence Federal Correctional Complex (FFCC), each with a different overall security level.[10]

ADX Florence generally houses around 430 male prisoners, each assigned to one of six security levels.[11] ADX Florence was designed jointly by DLR Group and LKA Partners of Colorado Springs.[11]

Most cells’ furniture is made almost entirely out of poured concrete, including the desk, stool, and bed. Each chamber contains a toilet that shuts off if plugged, a shower that runs on a timer to prevent flooding, and a sink missing a potentially dangerous trap. Rooms may also be fitted with polished steel mirrors bolted to the wall, an electric light, a radio, and a television that shows recreational, educational and religious programming.[12] These are considered privileges that may be taken away as punishment, so they are placed and remotely controlled such that the inmate does not actually come into contact with them. The 4 in (10 cm) by 4 ft (1.2 m) windows are designed to prevent the prisoner from knowing his specific location within the complex because he can see only the sky and roof through them. Additionally, inmates exercise in what has been described as an “empty swimming pool,” so they do not know their location for possible escape.[13] Telecommunication with the outside world is forbidden, and food is hand-delivered by correctional officers. The prison as a whole contains a multitude of motion detectors and cameras, 1,400 remote-controlled steel doors, and 12 ft (3.66 m) high razor wire fences, laser beams, pressure pads, and attack dogs guard the area between the prison walls and razor wire.[citation needed]

Eric Rudolph, the Olympic Park bomber, lamented in a series of 2006 letters to a Colorado Springs newspaper that the ADX is meant to “inflict misery and pain.”[14] Charles Harrelson, who was sent to ADX after a failed attempt to escape from a Georgia prison, said “Part of the plan here is sensory deprivation,” and “It could be infinitely worse.”[13] A former ADX warden described the place as “a cleaner version of Hell.”[15] There have been hundreds of “involuntary feedings” and four suicides.[15] Most recently, in June 2009 Richard Reid, commonly known as the “shoe bomber”, went on a hunger strike and was force-fed.[16]
