OK. You don’t need to eat. And you can subsist on ham sandwiches and water until you go back to work.

The question who is behind the scene organizing this?

When we were in Turkey, we learned that prisons didn’t provide meals, so you’d better know someone on the outside who would bring you food.

Oh here we go, this will turn out to be the latest movement by the left: “Prison slavery must go! It’s RAYYYYYCIST!” They’re whining and complaining about illegals going to jail, so naturally this will be the next. “Our killers, rapists and thieves must be compensated!!”

Defacto mandatory prison labor for private corporations and private prisons create massive financial incentive to place more people behind bars. We already have confirmed incidents with corrupt judges being bribed to place more people in certain for-profit prisons (at taxpayer expense).

Not good and should be 100% banned in civilized society. Nobody should profit based on taking peoples’ freedom and it leads to nothing but the worst imaginable corruption

They're prisons with cells.

They're not intended to be cellar Safe Rooms furnished with a MY PILLOW® and mom's home cooking 3 times a day.

The idea is that they should be uncomfortable enough that once released a convict never wants to return.

I think a return to remotely located prisons with hard labor like busting rocks all day would solve a lot of problems and cut way down on recidivism.

>>where seven inmates were killed by other prisoners when gang tensions boiled over.

That’s the only slavery in prison, and in the entire minority community. Their stupid tribalism in the form of gangs that you must join and serve to survive.

I’m fully behind their effort and support them enthusiastically until the very end.

So, taking them off the porch and putting them in prison doesn’t make them any smarter... protesting the fact that THEY are killing each other. BLM Locked Up

They should have thought about prison life before they decided to be a criminal

Oh boo freakin’ hoo. Here’s a thought for you: if you don’t like prison conditions DON’T COMMIT CRIMES. Excuse me but prison should be painful so no one wants to go back.

Good let em starve to death

The list of demands weren’t written by prisoners.....they read like something out of one of the commie groups running around. Final demand is to be able to vote will in prison
