I disagree when wealthy & powerful people go to jail it often means little.
They can & still do run their empires from behind a cell.
To think they do not care behind bars is silly.
I recently seen cell phone footage from inside a jail riot that had guards killed recently.
It was all over the media (the footage was public)
In case you all didn't know cell phones are not allowed in typical higher security North American prisons.
I also spent half my life visiting people in jail.
I was inside many of the famous prisons in my part of the country growing up.
I had old time family friends doing time for manslaughter or bank robbery etc.
I used a computer in like 1986 roughly in a medium / max prison in their computer room during an open house.
I spent the weekend with my Mom in a house overnight behind jail fences with M16 toting guards.
I spent many many many many years staring face to face spending hours & hours talking to people INSIDE jails.
Have you been strip searched before ? Stood over a mirror ?
Ever been to an open house ? Know what that is ?
I had a family member get married behind bars and i wore a blue suit when i went.
People were drinking booze & smoking dope at the reception and i got to eat wedding cake at home for ages..
I came home from school in grade 5 and seen the answering machine light flashing..
There was a message waiting for me for when i got off school that said,
"Hey Spoetnik, Mom & Dad were caught robbing a bank in Vancouver go to your Grandma's"
She wasn't even my Grandmother either just some old chick my Mom knew.
I sat in the court yard area while visiting as guys would smoke dope (same with the open houses)
I seen guys fucking in the yard with chicks visiting during the open houses.
And damn those open houses had some of the finest variety of baked good i ever tasted in my whole life !
I ate lunch many times in a max security lunch cafeteria.
I got plenty of stories trust me.. i got to see the inside of legendary prison(s) that were later shut down.
I got thrown out of school in grade 5 for wearing a "BC Pen" T-Shirt ahahhah
I grew up with family friends who were bikers or murders or bank robbers or drug dealers.
But hey what do i know.. you guys apparently know more than me about this shit.
After all your the young shit on the web shooting his fucking beak off.
I really do find it cute & adorable little assholes on the web think they "know things"
PS:I have no record and was never sentenced to any jail time ever.
