Who wasn't supposed to be calling his wife because he had like a non contact order with her or something. Anyways, i was in the day room walking around past the phones and all of a sudden this dude just starts screaming into the handset BABE TELLL ME YOU LOVE ME!!!! BABE!!!!! and then just collapsed onto the floor squirming and sobbing.

Edit: Pretty sure what happened I found out later is he heard some other guy in the background of the call briefly

Glad I did not have a girlfriend at the time. Relationships just stress you out in there.

      No dude lol. I live in some shithole upper middle class Midwestern suburb. (I'd consider myself lower middle class personally)

      Johnson County Kansas, look it up.

      No. It was mostly domestic violence dudes beating on their girlfriends and shit. Or drunks and drug addicts like myself.

      It was adult timeout basically.

      Prison is where you start encountering gangs. I'm sure there's probably one or two other posters here who have done a brief stint in county.

        California must be weird then, because county is considered The Bad Place and prison is Even Worse

          Honestly my man, it just varies by location. Kansas is flyover country to most people so gangs don't really spring up much here, not as much economic economic opportunity here. Gangs are basically a business man, there's brotherhood and neighborhood protection there, but they are still a business. Not enough money to be made in a place like kansas. What gangs we do have are second rate and scraps compared to what California or New York would get. We probably get the idiots, the big smart dudes are hanging out on the coasts.

          Hell, theres not really even Nazi gangs here, despite this seemingly being some 85% white paradise they would cream themselves over.

    "ive seen what pussy does to a mf and its so much worse"

    but its worth thinking about how for every incarcerated person theres other people effected & punished by their absence, and thats real hurt the carceral system puts on innocent people

    NGL, I've been a few steps away from feeling that before. Obviously no woman deserves that, but shit I can put myself in his shoes.
