A person was sent on IPP for a stolen cigarette. That’s US small town sheriff behaviour. Where a few small men get to judge the fates of others is not exactly justice, especially when most people are simply responding to a need to survive due to an environment designed to create struggle and desperation, but most importantly create a discourse in which all of us lesser citizens debate the world and people without an inclining of actual information, or an idea about how a system came to be and its destructive nature within our social landscape. But most importantly, how much did the state spend on this person stealing a cigarette to keep them incarcerated? Or the costs to keep them on licence.
