they threw me in jail for expired license plate tags
didn't even know there was a warrant from a ticket i got 6 months ago. 2 days in county. they kept me for a day after the judge ordered my release. said I "slipped through the cracks"
for expired tags. stripped searched, kept in holding alone all night with nothing but a concrete slab to sleep on and a combined toilet / water fountain. they took my fingerprints, scanned my eyes, made me undress in front of them again, put me in a block, and made me wait. they didn't give me a phone account to call on, didn't give a fuck, and lost me in their system.
for expired license tags
I knew prison sucked, I've hated cops for longer than I can remember, but the cruelty first hand of this system will stick with me forever, and I was only there two days. nothing can communicate what prison is other than being there. it is just a torture facility, nothing else.
i only got out because of DSA comrades annoying them on outside, otherwise I would probably have been in there at least another day.
fuck 12

I have a family member that was a corrections officer and I can corroborate that. They straight get off on it too. I remember him telling me gleefully about how they all ganged up on this one guy that pissed them off for some reason, idk if he struck one of the officers or just mouthed off back at them or something, but he basically described a gang of them beating his ass in his cell.
prison guards might be the most thoroughly inhuman group on this planet. even some regular cops are otherwise "good people" who probably don't stay cops for very long. but i dont think ive ever heard of a prison guard who wasn't a sadistic piece of completely irredeemable shit
Prison guards don't have any of the propaganda that occasionally tricks someone not-shitty into joining them. Everyone knows they suck, and only shitty people apply for the job.
I have known a few corrections officers that were just milking the clock in one of the few ways a person can to get by. They talked about trying to treat their charges well and just keep their heads down. Still bastwards for not burning the place down but what can you do
I admit that I only knew one. He was a family friend that had some very shitty tendencies. He stopped being a prison guard some time after he apparently got the shit kicked out of him by some inmates. When I learned about it I said "probably deserved it"
I work with them occasionally in a professional setting. You are mostly tight about the.
not trying to be rude there is no way to do that job in a "humane, heads down" fashion. it's either negligence or cruelty.
i believe "normal" people might choose to do it. that doesn't make it any less awful.
I have a family member who quit his job as a correctional officer after just a few months due to how his colleagues were treating the inmates. He went to work at a homeless shelter instead and became a pillar of the community to the point of being the only one to manage a rapport with some of the addicts and what not 😎
