as someone who enjoys tremendous privilege as compared to these inmates for a wide variety of reasons, I don’t know what it’s like to be profiled based on my race, gender, or sexuality

Comma Big.

We don't care about rehabilitation We just want to punish people.

…you've just changed my life with the information that such a thing exists.

You indicted him? Good for you. That's more than most of these fuckers get.

Tamir Rice was killed as a result of his being black.

Because he's white.

And then you remember there is no God.

HAHAHAHAHAHA. They don't give a shit about where your family is. People get put in prisons thousands of miles—and in some cases an ocean—away from their families all the time.

Nope. Very realistic. Hawaiian prisons are overcrowded.

That's actually a big problem right now. Overcrowding in Hawaiian prisons is leading to inmates being transferred to the mainland, an ocean away from their families. It's fucked up.

But why does that make it federal?

Yeah, I wondered about state lines, but I'm assuming they didn't cross state lines on foot.

I'm gonna be honest, I'm reading these on a slow computer that takes forever to load comments and there's a fair chance I'm going to throw myself off a cliff if people don't stop linking to the exact same article like it's shiny and new.

It's written by a bunch of white people, yes.

It reminded me of what actually happens in prisons. (See link above.)

Well, it's real. https://www.vice.com/read/w…

I was just wondering that above.
