Abu Ghraib USA

I been thinking since the prison abuse story broke that the real tragedy is these same abuses and worse occur in our own US prisons every day. Loretta Nall is way ahead of me. She just posted the first of her three part series on this issue on Pot TV.

I watched this excellent video last night -- take the warning seriously -- it's extremely graphic and disturbing. More distressing is the fact this is not an isolated incident. It's happening to non-violent offenders system wide, including political dissenters of every kind. The problem is bigger than just this illogical War On some Drugs. It's not comfortable viewing but I urge you to sit through the 35 minutes if you can.

Loretta is right. Where is the outrage for own citizens being mistreated by the same thugs running the privatized prisons here?
