We just had a little talk about private prisons at the occupy education lectures. The US has the largest number of imprisioned people and spends the most money at it than any other country. A lot of people are imprisioned under what many of us see as unjust laws such as drug laws. We are putting profit over need and making people into criminals simply to make money.

After reading the various posts here i decided to do something i don't normally do, and that's put my 2 cents in where it might not be needed or wanted. I guess I need to vent if you don't mind? Big Brother will probably be reading this too? Who cares?

You see, i have had a nightmarish experience working in Florida State Prisons myself (not CA). I am actually an addictions counselor (ironically, who is for legalization of MJ); that cares about the people who are wrongfully committed to years of incarceration for marijuana possession.

It is my experience that the men I treated (iam sympathetic to their cause), when i detested most all of my coworkers); had been put away on their first offense for usually a minimum of 3-5 years, for trafficking (then to really lock it in, the law adds), sales & manufacturing to the charges. I met tons of intelligent, hard working dad's with wives, homes, jobs, and kids that were destroyed because someone (Feds-DEA) doesn't like it (they not making the profits)!

My point is, what Anonymous is doing is the right thing when they occupied San Quentin, and folks like Mummia are no different than all the pioneers and pilgrims that set out through history to help freedom's cause for the commoners; they are the brave who stick their neck's out. It is time that the 1% freaking percent take a back seat to the REAL folks that run this country, and find their lonely planet someplace else.

I am happy to be a part of the movement and will keep coming back until the day I die to see MJ legalized (immediately, for medically needy folks)! I have been a member of NORML for about 30 or more years now and will continue to fight always! Keep it coming Freedom FIghters!!! I luv all of u!!

What needs to change are laws. A lot of people who need to be in jail are not in jail, while some innocent people are incarcerated.
But just shutting down the site seems like a waste of time. I rather go door to door and inform people about these prisons and what they could do to get government to stop spending so damn much. But hey that's just me.

Criminals are starting to live a bit more comfy. Hell, some places feed their prisoners good
