re: Angola Inmates File Lawsuit Over "Dangerous" Conditions

Cubbs. You know I’m a fan. What if a certain posters wife was killed by someone who is in Angola? Should that poster feel bad they are working in heat?

I’m happy you’re working on your PHD. I’m defending mine soon. In your studies have you considered the victims families?
My experience in getting the PHD is that chapter 1-3 isn’t too tough. But chapter 4….

You know I’m a lifetime student. You to the point where you defend? If so. Awesome for you.

Personality types and jury selection. The PHD will be in psychology. If I can ever finish this shite.

so the only alternative to working the fields in 100+ degree heat is hanging out at a country club?

No. It’s not the only alternative.

The other alternative? It’s called not committing crime.

Absolutely foreign concept.. I know. But we think outside the box here.

And the people who have been wrongfully convicted?

cubbies, have you ever read Mark Carelton's book on Angola?

It was a required text in Louisiana History back in the 1970's (a wonderful man that we lost much too soon to cancer)

He was still assigning it in the early 90s.

It’s interesting that the men here love to clutch to the low hanging fruit and scream “sHe’S EmOtiOnAL!1!1!111” instead of actually posing a critical argument.

So your knowledge about life at Angola comes from your attendance at the annual prison rodeo.

Are there any factoids in the course of doing your post-graduate publication related work in which you contrast your expressed support of The Russian Revolution and their prisons or judicial actions - or extra-judicial actions.

You seem to hanker for some iteration of Mr. Marx and Mr. Hegel's dialectics and their consequences; what parts of the behaviors of their adherents and their actions make you enamored of such movement, as you have expressed here repeatedly?

Any opinion of the genocides they perpetrated in their pursuit of the same thing you pursue? 70,000,000 ethnic Russians murdered would be a good beginning point. The 150,000,000 that followed the next 100 years would make for a good followup.

What part of incarceration perpetrated by your fellow travelers make you most ready to march for your cause?

Any work in these areas?"

I can’t say there has never been anyone to serve their entire sentence there, and I’m sure that inmates aren’t shuffled around as much (or maybe even at all) once they hit “criminal menopause.” Someone on death row won’t be moved around from facility to facility, either.

An allusion to testicles, no doubt.

Just had to go there didn't you. Soooo insulting.
