Its certainly shocking to see people being arrested over facebook posts. No sure what to do. Maybe start a campaign to encourage people to post 'terrorist' messages in protest? What can they do with 10 million terrorist messages?
- dragonikola 13y agoArrest the poor ones, ugly ones, minorities, people they don't personally like, etc.
- jmadsen 13y agonot enough prison space
- dragonikola 13y agoThen arrest just enough to fill up the prisons. You think America could ever run short on prison space? Prisons are our fastest growing form of housing.
- jmadsen 13y agonot gonna sit and go back & forth, but prisons are growing because of current state levels of 115% capacity & federal levels of 136% ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_incarceration_rate http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_incarceration_rat... ) I'd say they are "all filled up"
- dragonikola 13y agoPrisons are overfilled because there is a will to overfill them. The fact of overfilled prisons supports my point--that the justice system is happy & eager to fill the prisons to the bursting point. Instead of letting prisoners go free or reducing the number of prosecutions, the response has been to build more prisons. This won't stop anytime soon and supports my point.
