That was a sick story, and it makes me really happy to be living in sweden (our jails is a joke), although, i'm not planning on doing any crimes anyways lol.
I'd rather have the prisons we have here in Sweden rather than the one described in the op. (Not saying there aren't a lot of things wrong with them though)

Thanks for making this available. At the very least it was educational, and at times very dark and disturbing.

Wow, At least i know i will not have to join a gang if i ever go to prison.

that was my point :p that our prisons in sweden suck, they are a joke. I didn't mean i'd rather do time in USA, my point was just that if OP was to do time in sweden now (after he's been in jail in USA), he'd laugh hes ass off :p

Amazing and disturbing, this guy should seriously consider writing a book about it, would probably sell he's got a gift and a wealth of shitty experiences.

This deserves a bump to everyone who hasn't read it

I just finished reading the whole thing.
This shit is intense... almost wish I hadn't read it -_-
When I think about young kids that get sent to jail over really stupid laws, or drugs, or stupid judges, etc, it makes it all the more retarded and absurd having read this For once I agree with orb.... It's very intense, and also very long. Now back to reading refined literature >.>
|
Amazing read. Wow, I don't feel like I wasted my time at all with that.
|
i want to be a writer and this is what i will study,
SO interesting!

The American goverment, are they retarded or what? You should go too prison for rehab, not make the person a barbarian. Im glad we in Norway have prisons that are like an elder peoples home (NOT kidding, saw a rapist on the store the other day, escorted by two guys). It's something they are trying out here, some sort of care center for law breakers like rapists. And I support this. Last thing we need is going towards the direction of something like the shit in America.

Funny thing is I watched Burn Notice this week and Michael Westen goes to prison as part of the B plot. They had the cliche huge muscled dudes, gang control, and people weight lifting like crazy. This thread made me go 'lawl fake'.

Very good read. Was able to finish a portion before going to bed and cover the rest after waking up. While he said he might exaggerate at times a lot is readily believable. Very recommended read.

? They do have those things in prisons. Go watch Louis Theroux Behind the Bars. Good documentary about San Quetin Prison. You do see people segregating themselves by color, people with lots of tattoos, and working out. It's not all fake.

Great read. made my work day go by much faster.
|
great read for sure, i had no idea i would actually read it all until i finished lol
|
This was awesome mate, thanks for posting!
|
Really glad this was posted, amazing read.
|
Read the whole thing, damn...
Great read.

Incredible read. I don't even know what to say about it, your prisosn really are fucking awful. I've talkted to a few ex convicts here and while it's not the hotel some make it out to be, according to them it's at least habitable. The main problem for them was the fact that you weren't free, drugs, rape, murder wasn't an issue.

i am NEVER EVER gonna download anything illegal again! 
read through everything - man, what i thought i knew about prison-life and what it really is... i hope the guy gets a job, meets his daughter and never takes a single step inside a prison again.
