[KENOC]

Does anyone have any first or second-hand experience on how to survive in prison without joining a prison gang? Or becoming someone's girl?
Is it even possible? Just wondering....

An interesting question to be sure.

Are you going to be staying at the "Big House" for a while?

Thank the Lord I have NO experience with that kind of thing!

MSNBC frequently has documentary shows on prison life. They are very interesting.

I also have no personal experience in this. I would try to become friends with Michael Scofield. He seems good at breaking out of prisons and I'm sure Fox could always use another season of that show to milk whatever ratings they can get.

If it were me, I'd attack the first guard I saw. That should buy you some time in solitary. Just repeat as necessary.

Or, and just a thought, don't do any of the things that get you sent to prison in the first place! :bash:

I just typed in your thread title into google and got a long list of references. Not having experience in this, I started reading the first item. It was pretty interesting and I ended up reading the whole thing.

If you are headed to the slammer you prob have no business buying and selling guns, may be a contributing factor....

I'am not sure having not been there but I do know a guard at the state OR prison and he says fights are going on ALL the time. I think we all know Federal prisons are much better than state so if you got'ta go make sure it'll be there.

I personally am not heading there. Nor I am planning on heading to the hills, or having a nuke dropped in my region, or having the zombies attack me due to the end as we know it. But since this is a SURVIVAL AND PREPAREDNESS forum, is it not prudent to know how to survive in any circumstance? Just in case we face any of those scenarios in the future? Simple logic.

That's some funny stuff right there now!

The guy behind has had less sun exposure than the front guy(whiter feet)...hmmm, I guess the lesson here is being bronzed is more attractive.


Or don't bend over....

Never know.

You might shoot someone in self defence, and get locked up for murder.

Who's to say you're safe?

Rent the series OZ (an old HBO show) on DVD. You'll learn all you need to know.

Government gets to decide what's a crime and what the sentence for it is. What you think of as OK today could be a felony tomorrow.... depending on who is in charge of government.

Ordinary fisherman and farmers became felons during prohibition. The founding fathers were all criminals and would have hanged if the revolution had failed.

Prison may seem like a remote possibility today, but it might not always be that way.

HBO had documentry about prison life on prison

After working in a Prison for 14 years I'll tell you the top 3 issues most average citizens (the one's like you and me who end up in prison) have.

1) Extortion
2) Extortion
3) Extortion

All which usually lead to Assault & Rape. Try googling the word PREA and see what you come up with
