maybe private citizens being able to do something without the government or the rest of the community having a say in it
you know, freedom?
also, im assuming you referring to the private mercenaries (blackwater) hired by private companies in iraq (i think thats what it was, not sure if it was on the government payroll)
private prisons? well i wish, although i know membership at all prison living facilities are exclusive and one must meet the rigorous requirements
private police? they are called mall-cops
your a tard, sorry corporations still arent running the show

Are you only capable of insulting people? The point of this post was not to insult or offend anyone.

That is a pretty ignorant statement but you made a lot of them. I will educate you a bit:
Private prisons have exsisted in this country since the 1980's.
Rigorous requirements? I guess posession of marijuana is good enough huh?
Yes I am happy, but I'm no commie bro. I find it hard to believe you see nothing wrong with our President hiring a private army . . . . .

There is a quote from that movie, It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society. - Jiddu Krishnamurti
The movie is meant to peak interest and get people thinking differently about the world the live in. Is that so wrong? New and different ideas are usually rejected by society at first. But hey only a few decades after the civil right movement and we have a black president.

possession? that might (might granted) get you county jail, not prison
name a private prison (without using google)
if any exist, not sure if they do, then it sounds like a great idea
i mean, we all know the government sucks at appropriating funds, a corporate backed system would probably save money as well as boost efficiency
what are your criticism to it? why because corporations are bad? why?
and i only insult people who have really, really, dumb ideas

You show your ignorance further you should not need to insult people. Any educated person can argue their opinions without doing so.
Name a private prison off the top of my head? OK
Community Corrections Facility in Colorado Springs. They are now being investigated for possible embezzlement and poor treatment of prisoners.
Oh and I guess you never heard about Tommy Chong he went to PRISON (the one he went to was privately owned BTW) for 9 months for endorsing a company that sold bongs online. That was not even possession bro. He did not own the company and the DEA used entrapment to even get him to sell bongs in a state that would prosecute such a ridiculous law.
Open your eyes and look around bro, ask some questions for once.
You really want to make a business out of putting people in cages? That is just wrong dude

but the fact remains its still retarded
and of course im sure that prison is under investigation for poor treatment (MOST ARE)
and tommy chong went to jail cause hes a celebrity, different rules apply to them
and no, i personally dont want to make a business of putting CRIMINAL in ISOLATED AREAS WHERE THEY CANT HURT OTHERS.....but i think some can do it better than the government and turn a profit, its great
as far as im concerned, criminals arent people, they have something wrong with them, and dont act normally
and stop calling me bro, to be called a bro around atlanta means your a fuck boy (frat guy, ya know the bro's)

have been ever since, before i hit puberty (i were a late bloomer) i thought i was a pacifist
what does this have to do with anything, just because you enjoy weed doesnt mean you have to think like someone from berkley

yea tommy chong was hunted down by one of Bush's top guys according to American Drug War: The Last White Hope. I think his son was using the name chong to sell paraphanalia online and tommy new about it and technically endorsed it. They got him for selling them to people in counties that had prohibited such items. And for any state/local/federal govt to do that is in my opinion fucked up. But yea Tommy was unfairly targeted because he is a pot icon and those douchebags in Washington wanted to send us doobie brothers a message. I have a message for them: FUCK OFF.

Therefore in your opinion you are a criminal and should be locked up in jail. While you are in jail you should be abused, violence will be encouraged, oh and people will making a profit off your imprisonment. Sound ok?
NO!!!?? Rather hypocritical don't you think?
They spent $14 million to get Tommy Chong, wow. You are right stalebiscuit! Celebrities DO get special treatment! Therefore their imprisonment is not unjust right?
I'm hoping by now you are seeing the hypocrisy you seem to support.

OOOOH! OK I see
So private prisons are ok for "violent heavy offenders" because it is ok to make money off them. The problem is that is not the truth man.
You see our prison system is full of people just like you who smoke pot maybe grow pot. These people never committed a violent crime either. Why? You say.
Well we have created an industry out of imprisoning, prosecuting, and I would not be surprised if industry makes its way into enforcement. Big business makes lots of money and the motive is to make more money. How does a Prison Contractor make more money? You got it imprison more people!
Of course most people are like you and remain unaware and then defend their fragile opinions by slinging insults.
So smoke another J with me and think about it, do your own research. The truth about this country, government, and society will set you free. Or you can continue to live in fear.
