didn’t even know there was a warrant from a ticket i got 6 months ago. 2 days in county. they kept me for a day after the judge ordered my release. said I “slipped through the cracks”

for expired tags. stripped searched, kept in holding alone all night with nothing but a concrete slab to sleep on and a combined toilet / water fountain. they took my fingerprints, scanned my eyes, made me undress in front of them again, put me in a block, and made me wait. they didn’t give me a phone account to call on, didn’t give a fuck, and lost me in their system.

for expired license tags

I knew prison sucked, I’ve hated cops for longer than I can remember, but the cruelty first hand of this system will stick with me forever, and I was only there two days. nothing can communicate what prison is other than being there. it is just a torture facility, nothing else.

i only got out because of DSA comrades annoying them on outside, otherwise I would probably have been in there at least another day.

fuck 12

    I only went to jail once and I was blackout drunk until the bastards tackled me and slammed me to the ground. Sobered me up enough to remember the experience while still being a belligerent asshole to everyone there. Lucky for me I got out the next morning with my dad posting bail.

    The worst part was getting a lawyer and having him make me read the police report expecting me to be horrified at the fact I publicly urinated outside a bar. Yeah such a crime deserves to be tackled and locked away for 12 hours. I complied with the bootlicking lawyer and he got me pre-trial intervention, 2 group therapy sessions and 80 hours of community service later it’s off my record. And some fines. Another way to keep working folks down.
