Go out and buy a steak and taser it. I'd be surprised if it doesn't make "smoke" and hiss and crackle.

Too bad thats not true at all. Being sober doesn't mean the addiction, and the effects of withdrawal and NEEDING that next hit, go away, and that clouds your judgment. | ||

Without any credibility in what you just said, your post hasn't really shown that this thread is fake. Please bring sources in which you see this prison story as completely made up. If it really is, damn they sure spent a lot of time trying to go through this. But I agree with the poster above me saying that we should respect the thread as it is, because we don't know whether its fake or not, and keep our "validity" opinions to ourselves. | ||

He claims that 33 murders occurred in his one prison? That's roughly 1.5% of all deaths from ANY cause (suicide, cancer, heart disease, murder, etc.) in all the prisons in the U.S. per year happening in the just the one prison he was incarcerated in and that they were all murders. Here is the Dept of Justice data for deaths in prison (ALL deaths; cancer, heart disease, suicide, murder, etc.) http://bjs.ojp.usdoj.gov/content/pub/pdf/mlj07.pdf Highlights: • From 2000 through 2007, local jail administrators reported 8,110 inmate deaths in custody. Deaths in jails increased each year, from 905 in 2000 to 1,103 in 2007. • The mortality rate per 100,000 local jail inmates declined from 152 deaths per 100,000 inmates to 141 per 100,000 between 2000 and 2007, while the jail inmate population increased 31% from 597,226 to 782,592. • Annually, more than 80% of the nation’s jails reported no deaths in their custody. • Deaths from any illness, including AIDS, accounted for more than half (53%) of all deaths in local jails. • Heart disease was the leading cause among illness deaths in local jails (42%). • Suicide was the single leading cause of unnatural deaths in local jails, accounting for 29% of all jail deaths between 2000 and 2007, but the suicide rate declined from 49 to 36 deaths per 100,000 inmates. • Between 2000 and 2007, the suicide rates were higher in small jails than large jails. In jails holding 50 or fewer inmates, the suicide rate was 169 per 100,000; in the largest jails, the suicide rate was 27 per 100,000 inmates. • After adjusting for differences associated with the age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin, suicide was the only cause of death that occurred at a higher rate in local jails than in the U.S. general population. | ||

I'd imagine theres a world of difference between your average county prison and Supermax :/. | ||

That's a Federal Prison system "jail". [EDIT: I was wrong. There is only one Fed Supermax but several states have prisons called supermax. Michigan has only one at Iona per Wikipedia.] Fed jails by most accounts do tend to be safer and cleaner then the average state/county/local prison. He was at a Michigan state prison. This is by the DOJ, local means "not Federal" I believe. Anyway this link below to the above doc [Mortality In Local Jails, 2000-2007] states that the "Estimates and mortality rates for the top 50 jail jurisdictions in the United States are also presented". The Michigan state prison system is certainly in the top 50 'jail jurisdictions' in the country if not the top 5 or 6 and the figures are inclusive of the Michigan system. http://bjs.ojp.usdoj.gov/index.cfm?ty=pbdetail&iid=2197 EDIT #2: Found this: http://bjs.ojp.usdoj.gov/content/dcrp/dcst.pdf [Deaths in custody statistical tables] by DOJ. Page 9 Total Number of State Prisoner Deaths Michigan 114(2001) 113(2002) 127(2003) 138(2004) 140(2005) 138(2006) And this guy witnessed 12 murders in two years? Being in eyesight of him is as great a menace as smoking and fried foods. | ||
