I have to control the things in my life. Rehabilitation is on the individual prisoner, he/she has to d...

I represent for the life that made me a problem child and the soldiers on the streets who are trying to survive the jungle that goes on in the ghettos/or jungle. They don't believe...

Keith Burley Pennsylvania A Definition of freedom One form of freedom is the ability to recognize the truth. For when someone has the ability to recognize the truth, he is free from an intellectual perspective, and a rational perspective.

He knows that they are poisonous in that they cause cancer and other ailments. However, if this pe...

My hate was a loaded weapon and as hard as my mother tried to comfort and love me unconditionally, I still was able to see my death around the corner. Th...

The immersion into the "convict" ethic(s) began with a real lesson: a quite brutal homicide, followed by an entire prison population's instant amnesia upon questioning! The lesson being: convicts hear no evil! see no evil! speak no evil! 'Death before dishonor' be...
