People who commit serious crimes in society go to prison and are subjected to detrimental prison standards. Many people are sodomized, pimped out, or even killed.The food is making people sick and their living conditions are causing life long medical problems.
Rape is such a common problem in institutions the prison rape elimination act was passed in the year 2003 to track and record every rape incident in prison in an attempt to find the root cause and stop it all together.
264 people out of every 100,000 people will die while incarcerated in an American Prison..
U.S. prison inmates are 6 times more likely to contract food born illness than the general population! In detriot a prison kitchen worker was fired for refusing to serve rotting potatoes! Meals are outsourced to private companies and are payed for on a meal by meal basis so these private companies wont throw out old rotten food as they need to capitalize on their investment which leads to inmates contracting diseases as a result.
Clostridium perfringens and Salmonella were the two most common disease causing agents which are thought to be from tainted poultry.
In prison inmates are provided a bed made out of hard metal welded together out of an iron slab and your mattress is made of cheap cushioning covered in heat attracting plastic
This is apparently the safest most economically efficient type of bedding for inmates but will lead to arthritis of the back, hips, and shoulders which that person will have to live with the rest of their life after their sentence has been served.
I understand people serving time as a lesson not to commit crimes again but people should not be subjected to sub-par treatment because they made mistakes in life! It is inhuman to subject people to conditions that will cause life altering conditions whether physical or mental.
It is common for guards to allow inmates to commit heinous crimes within the institutions walls! People are being brutalized and left for dead all over the country in this private institutions; it is wrong and must be stopped now! Its called capitalizing on mass incarceration!

DR. TERRY KUPERS EXPLAINING THE HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATION SIDE OF SOLITARY CONFINEMENT
ACCORDING TO COPILOT:
Yes, solitary confinement is widely considered a human rights violation. Here’s why:
Psychological Harm: Prolonged isolation in a small cell with minimal human contact can lead to severe psychological distress. Anxiety, depression, hallucinations, and suicidal thoughts are common among those subjected to solitary confinement.
Lack of Due Process: Some prisoners are placed in solitary confinement without proper due process or clear reasons. This violates their right to a fair trial and humane treatment.
Violation of Dignity: Isolating individuals for extended periods denies them basic human interaction, sunlight, and fresh air. It degrades their dignity and violates their right to be treated with respect.
International Standards: The United Nations and other international bodies have condemned the use of prolonged solitary confinement. The Mandela Rules emphasize limiting its use and ensuring humane conditions for prisoners.
In summary, while there may be situations where temporary isolation is necessary (e.g., for safety reasons), prolonged solitary confinement is widely regarded as a violation of human rights.
WE ALL KNOW ABOUT THIS ONE, WHY DOES IT STILL EXIST AGAIN?
ACCORDING TO COPILOT:
The treatment of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay has been a subject of significant controversy and criticism over the years. Here’s an in-depth look at the conditions and treatment of detainees:
Background and Purpose
Establishment: Guantanamo Bay detention camp, located in Cuba, was established in 2002 by the U.S. government to detain and interrogate suspects in the “War on Terror” following the September 11, 2001, attacks.
Detainee Population: At its peak, the camp held nearly 800 detainees. As of 2023, around 30 detainees remain.
Conditions and Treatment
Physical and Psychological Abuse: Detainees have been subjected to various forms of physical and psychological abuse. Techniques included stress positions, sleep deprivation, and exposure to extreme temperatures. These methods were part of the CIA’s enhanced interrogation program, developed by contracted psychologists.
Solitary Confinement: Many detainees have spent prolonged periods in solitary confinement, which can lead to severe psychological distress.
Forced Feeding: Hunger strikes by detainees have been met with force-feeding, a practice that has been widely condemned by human rights organizations.
Health and Medical Care
Medical Neglect: Reports indicate that detainees have often received inadequate medical care. Some have alleged that medical treatment was withheld as a form of punishment.
Mental Health: The psychological impact of indefinite detention, combined with harsh interrogation techniques, has led to significant mental health issues among detainees.
Legal and Human Rights Issues
Indefinite Detention: Many detainees have been held without charge or trial, which has raised serious legal and human rights concerns. The U.S. government has argued that it can hold detainees indefinitely under the international laws of war.
Torture Allegations: The use of torture and other inhumane treatment has been documented and criticized by various human rights organizations and international bodies.
Recent Developments
UN Investigations: In 2023, a UN investigator reported that the remaining detainees at Guantanamo Bay continue to be subjected to "cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment". The report highlighted ongoing issues such as near-constant surveillance, forced cell extractions, and undue use of restraints.
Calls for Closure: There have been ongoing calls for the closure of Guantanamo Bay. The UN investigator recommended that the U.S. government apologize for its treatment of detainees and ensure accountability for human rights violations.
Ethical and Moral Considerations
Public Opinion: The treatment of detainees at Guantanamo Bay has sparked widespread debate and criticism. Many view the practices as a violation of human rights and international law.
Government Response: The U.S. government has defended its actions, stating that the conditions at Guantanamo Bay are humane and reflect respect for human rights.
The situation at Guantanamo Bay remains a complex and contentious issue, with ongoing debates about the balance between national security and human rights.
