This foolish leftist state decided to end segregation by race/ethnicitity in prisons. Is this the predicted result?

******They used everything from tear gas, batons, they used wooded and foam projectiles," Hildago said of the guards




They should have tried machine guns and grenades.. they usually quell riots pretty quick

My guess is they are pissed that they arent being treated like prisoners at Gitmo.

I've always cautioned against bringing foam projectiles to a prison fight, but they never listen.

" How many are Illegal mexicans I wonder......'

They get deported, but don't let that stop you from putting illegal immigration onto every thread. God knows you aren't alone in it.

A good reason for the death penalty - something to look forward to - their demise.

The vast majority of these inmates have never been within 100 miles of a "diversity trainer".Many have never been in the workforce PERIOD!They are street hardened and the ethnic hatreds rampant on the outside get magnified in prison.One inmate descibed the situtation to me as"tribal".
The irony is that,as racially stratified as the prisons are,theres not much love lost within the racial groups.Black and Mexican subsets will go to war as eagerly with each other as they will against the guards or whitey.

Sorry for the prison guard who suffered heat exhaustion.

As for the rest, let them fight on!

Illegals who commit crimes are not deported until their sentences are finished......

Here in Ga it used to be black on white convict violence, now the blacks and the Hispanics are locked in a death struggle while the white cons stand around and watch all the excitement. The black inmates used to be real bad about sticking together but buddy let me tell you Hispanics really take it to the next level.

Wow. You present a very interesting perspective I hadn't thought of it that way. Makes sense. There is plenty of money to go around during the War on Drugs!

The Hispanics have the deep cultural tradition of macho"honor"and they are willing to go down to the death at the slightest hint of"disrespect"while black criminals seem to be more motivated by greed and "getting rich or die trying".
I used to live in Athens,Ga for a year or so.Constant drama between poor whites and blacks at the school where I was interning.This was back in 1971-72 and there were no Mexicans at all in the area back then.
Man,have things changed since then!

Oh,and regarding your nom de plume,I DID vote for the Tricky One in both 1968 and 1972.
I wasn't his biggest fan then or now but,hey,he was better than The Hump or Georgie Mc Govern.

Oh my goodness. Did any escape?

The police are patrolling West L.A. more than usual; may be looking for ex-cons, inmates, etc.

Or, maybe the beat is beefed up for New Year's. I'm inside and staying here.

"Why not flood the place with nitrous oxide? "

Threaten to take away the Cable TV, weightlifting and smoking privileges and then you'll get some respect.

How many are [i]llegal mexicans I wonder . . . .

LOL I wonder why you're wondering. Are illegal mexican prisoners more prone to riot, or something?
