Alright, so here's the deal. I always knew the States had a really fucked prison system, but yesterday night I found myself up and awake in the wee hours of the morning and decided I'd read up on the subject. Apparently, if all the current prisoners in the world were rounded up, 1 out of 4 would be in an American prison. That means that 25% of all prisoners on this earth are in American jails (that makes the USA top Turkish and even Mexican prisons). I also discovered that there are fucking private prisons in the US... What. The. Fuck. How the hell can people profit off other people going to jail! That's ridiculous! Not only that, but any owner of a private prison would obviously be endorsing stricter laws and help pass bills that would get them more profits, or more humans to hold in their jail cells. I mean, I had no idea that it was this fucked up!
Anyways, I ran into this video, which is pretty cool. Shows more fucked up shit about the prison system down there (no offense to any of you guys).
