A prison is a place where the inmates belong in a racial hierarchy in which those that get caught the most lead the rest.

Inside California prison structure and some of its flaws
 From gang enhancements, to just recently overturn federal crack lynching laws, the United States of America has not yet fully lifted itself from a punitive system designed from motivations of white racial supremacy.   It is why still today that white criminal-like activities and drunk driving are legally judged with different standards as to what is a serious crime, and or potentially detrimental to society. If the average white person is likely to do it, it is often not a crime.

Our policing agencies are not there to protect the citizens, they are there to protect an order, a system.

In America's past, Minority crimes have been focused on and demonized.  The less likely the average white person is likely to commit it, the "worse "the crime is often perceived to be. Gang, gun, crack, prison prior enhancements, in terms of deadly potential there is not much difference than those crimes and drunk driving.

such disparaging sentences are often a political decision, and not an honest one.

 A mandatory minimum sentence for,  crack cocaine is not something that is done to protect the society. It does not pass the smell test. Putting an enhancement on crack is like putting a large vehicle or truck enhancement on a DUI.  Except for the fact that a larger vehicle is indeed much more likely to harm innocent bystanders than a modified form of cocaine compared with another form.

 It is the same when dealing with mandatory minimum sentences regarding the showing of a gun during the commission of a felony.

 Though not as fast as bullets, a few extra thousand pounds a vehicle can equate to an increase of inertial energy greater than that of even 100 flying bullets. And if guns are such a concern for the American public, why are bulletproof vests illegal in California? Why aren't seatbelts illegal? Can't they promote speeding? Do they not increase the feeling of safety for the speeder?

It is also the same when dealing with mandatory minimum gang enhancements.  Gangs, now labeled Street terrorists.


Historically, minorities living in ghettos lived in a virtual police state.  Their parents would be sent to jail, they would then be taken care of by their friends. Gangs began. An American ghetto historically was basically run by a foreign occupation force… I.e., White cops. Minorities in these communities often suffered countless injustices day after day under a system designed to keep every Avenue they might likely use in hopes of receiving protection or enacting retribution punishable by a virtual, or a real, death sentence.

 The American public has been groomed to deeply fear things like games and terrorists. The American public has willfully given up many rights due to this fear.

Through our disunity they rule us, and I believe one day we will extremely regret how  Easily we had let them influence and indeed control us with emotions. By doing this, we have allowed them to take many of our rights away. We have also had avenues of recourse taken away if our rights are violated. This all took place in the name of our own protection and the ability to punish and control the various groups we had been taught to feel we needed that protection from.

No man is an island

 A simple breakdown of the quote that "No man is an island",  related to the prison industrial complex.

It is common sense that family members can affect their family in serious ways simply by their absence. The social capital of a family is diminished as their loved one is shipped to a prison which is often very troubling and hostile to visitors. The sadness and Psychological pain this all creates may lead to physical pain which also reduces one's activity. Both work and recreation are affected, which reduces the physical, psychological, and emotional health of self, family.  These people internal influence the community.  Though the person or family is still alive, it is not truly living. With the reduction of communal engagement, capital in circulation within the economy is reduced as well as positive feelings.

 Just as the humiliating treatment of Germany in the first size treaty led to World War II,  advantageous punishment often has adverse repercussions.

Emotions like rage, feelings of this grace, due to repressive conditions have quite a few unintended consequences.

Cruel disappointment, stress, and anxiety without a healthy release can lead to emotional displacement. These feelings are experienced by both those in prison and those dealing with the prison system in honor of an imprisoned loved one. In either case, most cannot afford it to confront the culprit of the evil deed, whether it be a staff member or a gang member… Often two peas in a pod… So they're hurting emotion can often only build, destroying the person who harbors it. Emotion can fester until it is finally triggered by something unrelated to its creation. It is a subconscious process. And it creates innocent victims.  The prisoner, X prisoner, or loved one of either, may release this built-up negativity on the loved one, or both on each other (thereby further stressing the commitment to each other),  or either of them may release it on an innocent victim.

Not only those who have had direct contact with the system but us all and up suffering the build-up hurt that has been needlessly and unnecessarily unleashed on those having to deal with a system ran by people who are not held accountable.
