Protesters threw bottles and glass objects at the police. East Coast 911 reported:
EastRutherford Personnel continue to operate at MetLife Stafium, the venue for the Hot 97 Summer Jam music event this evening, where a riot & multiple fights broke out this evening. Law Enforcement personnel have had bottles/glass & other objects thrown at them. At least 1 trooper has been taken to the hospital after being allegedly assaulted and multiple arrests have been effectuated at the venue.
The natives grow dysfunctional... and the urban living ones are more dangerous because they are more dependent.
We need more prisons, stiffer sentencing... 99% of the rioters have long criminal histories and if sentenced properly, would be still in prison now victimizing each other.
More prisons along the lines of "Escape from New York", or LA ? LOL Would be cheaper on the taxpayers, and recidivism would not be an issue, LOL
Carpenters idea was cool... that would work for me. It isn't really about punishment or rehabilitation. That doesn't work with dependent animals. Sentencing should be all about keeping our peers from being repeat victimized. Carpenters idea would do just that... contain the shit birds.
"Carpenters idea was cool... that would work for me."
Then you'd like this. Great book. 1987.
The British government now runs island prison colonies to take dangerous offenders from its overcrowded mainland jails.
Among all these colonies, Sert, 25 miles off the north Cornish coast, has the worst reputation. There are no warders. Satellite technology is used to keep the convicts under watch. New arrivals are dumped by helicopter and must learn to survive as best they can.
To Sert, one afternoon in July, is brought Anthony John Routledge, sentenced for a sex-murder he did not commit. Routledge knows he is here forever. And he knows he must quickly forget the rules of civilized life.
But not all the islanders are savages. Under the charismatic leadership of one man a community has evolved. A community with harsh and unyielding rules, peopled by resourceful men for whom the hopeless dream of escape may not be so hopeless after all ...
