Prison riot


HUNTINGMAN

Recommended Posts

I was on the way home a while ago with the family and we he got a phone call from the mother inlaw. She informed us that there was

a prison riot at the prison only 10 mini urea from my house. Said prisoners had set over half of the place on fire and had gotten ahold of some weapons and were shooting guards. I have my house locked up tight and have my kids sleeping in my beadroom floor, also have my 40 cal loaded and laying beside me with a clip full of hornady tap ammo just incase the bad guys get out and come this way. My brother inlaw is on the sherrifs dept and was getting ready to head that way when he called

the wife , I hope all the law inforcment and firefighters are ok tonight. I bet that if the cops we t in a d shot and killed 20 or 30 of the scum the rest would stop rioting.

I read the post and followed up to see...sounds like things are under control and fortunately, noone sustained any serious injuries:

BURGIN, Ky. –

Eight inmates were treated for minor injuries, and eight staff were also injured in the melee, although none of the employees were admitted to the hospital, said Cheryl Million, a spokeswoman for the Kentucky Department of Corrections. Officers in riot gear rushed the prisoners with tear gas about 9 p.m. Friday, and all the inmates were subdued in less than two hours, authorities said.

Six buildings had burned, including a kitchen, medical center, canteen and visitation area. Million also said all but one of the dormitories, a 196-bed unit, were damaged and uninhabitable.

Hmmm

Was this riot supposed to make us feel sorry for those sad prisoners "plight"?

The injustice of not having....let's see now....what could they be fighting for?

Better treatment from the guards who have to watch their's and their co-workers backs or be shanked by some blood thirsty moron? (by moron, I mean the non-Realtree type)

Or maybe it was for better living conditions. After all the tax payers funding their miserable lives, live in better conditions. Well most of them.

Or is it because they want a private golf course (like they have at the waterfront prison in Victoria here)?

It could it be because they want a riding stable like they have in a prison in Alberta!

Private tv's and computers like in some Ontario prisons?

Or maybe they were simply bored.

AWWWW POOR THINGS!!

I think what they were really saying was this:

We don't need a kitchen or a medical center or even a canteen. Heck we don't want a visitation center either! In fact we would all love to shack up, 3 or 4 to a bed, in the only dorm left.

I THINK WE SHOULD GIVE THEM WHAT THEY ASKED FOR.

I'm glad it's over, from the timers going around last night I thought it could have been a more dangerous situation or a worse outcome. I still think they should have went in and shot about 20 of them and then the rest would have stoped the rioting.A s for what the whole thing was about, they said on the news it was over an incident that happened earlier in the week when three Latinos jumped and beet up another person. They were told the had to be escorted over the whole place and wasn't allowed to roam freely.

I am good friends with a lieutenant at the state pen here in South Dakota. I have heard many stories of fights that break out and people who cut their necks and arms for attention.

At the store I work for we sell all of the TV's to the prison. I was talking to my friend and he said many people think that they should not be allowed to buy TV's. He said that the guards like them because it keeps the inmates busy and there are less fights because of them.
