2nd Class Citizens Assert 1st Amendment Rights Col. Writ. 11/14/14 Copyright Bryant Arroyo In the dead of the night Gov. Tom Corbett huddled with the choir of the legislature and the rest of his cronies (FOP) whom introduced an invidious, unconstitutional 'Chilling Effect' tantamount to a 'civil choke hold.' Gov. Corbett signed both HB2533 & SB508 on Oct. 3, 2014, which is legally unprecedented and has far-reaching implications that specifically targets and impacts for...

Part One Do I agree with Freda Adler’s quote that “[ a] crime is anything that a group in power chooses to prohibit”? In the context of our American democracy, Adler’s quote is pretty close to an exact definition of how an act that is perceived to be wrong is codified into a body of penal laws.1 An elected body of legislators, i.e. the “group in power”, determines what public wrongs should be deemed wrong enough to be labeled a crime and, as such, carry along with them punitive measures. When A...

"A Criminal End" By: Mr. Tracy "Hollywood" Glenn March 25th 2D1h Prison has a way of sometimes helping one find another path, one that is seemingly reachable that one could not see beforehand from the offense that has one there locked away. If I were to tell you this correspondence is being written by one man who has at 50 years of age no high school diploma or B.E.D. could you believe it? Prison for me today is demoralizing and it has no place in my efforts to fulfill in ...

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. It is a form of "MENTAL ENSLAVEMENT" when someone knows the truth, yet does not recognize it. Consider someone with an addiction to cigarette's. He knows that they are poisonous in that they cause cancer and other ailments. However, if this pe...

A VIEW FROM THE BOTTOM by Burl N. Corbett The legal profession loves to quote the hoary aphorism "We are a nation of laws" to wheedle the rest of us into sanctioning their self—appointed role as our protector. The platitude's bitter truth, however, soon becomes apparent to those accused of a crime when he or she finds themself charged with not only the primary offense, but a slumgullion of barely applicable sister charges, an obnoxious practice of flinging every conceivable all...

ALONE WOTH NOBODY For many that are incarcerated, being alone hurts more often than any other pain we may experience. Having no one to share the ideas, thoughts and passions we have, slowly but surely destroys a person behind bars. Loneliness turns to self—destruction, forcing individuals to engage in behaviors one would be appalled by. My message to those incarcerated is for all of us to start seeking p0Sil'iV€ interactions with people out in the communities. Instead of focusing on how ...

Easily, I made them living the way I lived in another lane that was taught to me. So free, yet so far from reality, it tends to make me sick to my stomach today as I sit & write now. An understanding now that I have where before I make a choice there has to be a moment or some time before I make the choice which leads to the action that could be a fatal on...

by Christopher Balmer People vs. the Animals: When we think of confinement, automatically prison flashes in our minds: 16 x 9 foot cells, unsanitary conditions, loud noise, loneliness, depression, etc. are all a part of solitary confinement in prison. Mass incarceration strips the freedom of every human being who becomes incarcerated. But what about human behavior that strips the natural habitats of animals across the world? In my eyes, animals have the natural right to enjoy the freedom of lif...
