Reply #223: First of all, I would never

[cali]

call you an idiotic name like "evil instrument of torture". I know some pretty damn good people who work for the prison system where I live- not only prison guards but folks in administration and those who provide health care. Yes, I've run into some real assholes too. You assume far too much when you assume I've never been in a prison. I spent 3 years advocating for prisoners rights and have been in virtually every prison in my state. I've investigated suicides in prisons and mistreatment- as well as non-treatment.

I have no idea about the institution you work in. I can't comment. And if you think the HRW has a vested interest in painting a horrific picture, you don't have a clue.
