Thanks Brother $$RICH$$ and Sister Cursed Heart.
Are city and county jails, prisons too?
I guess they are huh?
Hmmmm ... this word thing again ...
I reck'n where ever they are incarcerate'n you, you're in prison? Or is there some great differentiation between city and county jails vs state and federal prisons? Off the top, i guess the latter are where you go if you have to spend an extended amount of time? Hmmmm ... i wonder if there is an actual time cut off or something. Like if you get 6 months, you go to jail instead of prison. Or is it determined by the crime they convicted you of?
Brother OldSoul taught a class, or two, on prisons. He said, if no mistake, if one is convicted of a federal crime, they can send you anywhere in the country to do that time. You can even be "disappeared" ... spending large amounts of time in undisclosed locations, where your Family doesn't know what prison you are in, what city, and you can't contact them. He said that in "prison" ... and i'm including city, county, state, and federal ... Black Men most usually gather together based on where they are from. He said prison officials know this, so they break up the Black Men from the same areas, in an effort to lessen the opportunity for any unity or bonding.
Thanks again everyone.
