Torture Inc.: Americas Brutal Prisons

Savaged by dogs, Electrocuted With Cattle Prods, Burned By Toxic Chemicals, Does such barbaric abuse inside U.S. jails explain the horrors that were commited in Iraq?

By Deborah Davies

They are just some of the victims of wholesale torture taking place inside the U.S. prison system that we uncovered during a four-month investigation for BBC Channel 4 . It’s terrible to watch some of the videos and realise that you’re not only seeing torture in action but, in the most extreme cases, you are witnessing young men dying...

Watch...then discuss.

My opinion? That we cannot, under any cricumstances, act as if we have the ability to diagnose and resolve anyone else's issues, given our own current ones happening in our penal systems, right now, as we speak; a dehumanizing process that strips humanity away from persecuted and persecutor, and thus reflectiveo fthe larger, unmentioned tragedy that comes to all involved in the doing of intentional harm.

3. That is pure EVIL

Did you see the disabled guy getting tasered repeatedly
because he wouldn't sit in his wheelchair? There is a special
circle of hell awaiting any man who would punish a disabled
person like that. :(
