Weird how the internet can tell me 1.6 million people died in gulags but there is no hazy estimate of how many folks have died in US prisons other than a report for 2001-2014 which hilariously misorders cause of death to downplay homicide and 'missing'.
I've used this copy paste verbatim a few times. Tends to go relatively ok.
In face to face conversation it would go quite differently I agree.
