Bernie Madoff on remorse: "F- - - my victims."
"Bernie Madoff has a message from prison: F- - - you.

Madoff, 71, has become a folk hero to most of his fellow inmates -- but when one inmate lashed out at the disgraced Ponzi schemer for his $65 billion theft, Madoff barked: "F- - - my victims. I carried them for 20 years, and now I'm doing 150 years," New York magazine reports in its issue on sale tomorrow.

When another convict told Madoff that stealing from old ladies was "kind of f- - -ed up," Madoff coolly replied, "Well, that's what I did."

Another former convict told the magazine that Madoff once said he could spin a globe, put his finger anywhere on it, "and chances are he had a house there or he'd been there."

4. Bernie's choices are:
A. Staying in prison, alive, and hope no one gets paid to shank me.

B. Staying in prison and hope that they never let me out, cause my life isn't worth a plugged nickel the moment I step foot on the sidewalk.


Pissing off people that you stole lots of money from usually means an artificially shortened life span.

6. Anent paying someone to shank Bernie
I think I'd pay someone not to shank him, but instead, to approach Bernie to tell him that he'd been paid to shank Bernie. And where Bernie had once measured his worth on Earth in the hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars, he's now worth $10 and a pack of Camels.

7. The victims are breathing the air of freedom
and Bernie is breathing fetid prison air. I'm sure they don't give a fuck about him and his problems in the slam either.

11. Which puts him right in line with
BP, the Bush administration, the banksters, and Wall Street.
None of whom are in prison, while Madoff will spend the rest of his life there.
So fuck Madoff, he's a minor concern at this point.

13. I wonder if people here
would take the word of inmates in regards to other topics such as, I don't know, abuse by guards?

I believe what the inmates are saying but I'm surprised everyone else does.
