Happy Cinco de Mayo!
Today is Cinco de Mayo. I don’t know if y’all understand how much I love this holiday, but I love it almost as much as I love St. Patty’s day. I was supposed to go to Detroit today and visit ADD Tim, but his scheduling got messed up so that plan was squashed. So no drinky drink for Kiki. Unless I plan on visiting a Mexican restaurant tonight….which I might.
Today I attended a free lunch. Well, it was a free lunch with information provided. Some group was giving a presentation on why juveniles shouldn’t be locked up with adults. Before the lunch, I had to go around and talk to people and pretend I was really interested in the subject and not looking to score a free, hot (hot is the key here, kids. There aren’t very many free lunches around here that are hot) mid-day lunch. So I go up to this lady and she shows me a chart of how many juveniles in the state who are incarcerated with no chance of parole. She suggested that we place these hoodlums in juvenile facilities and let them have an opportunity for parole.
Because I like confrontation, I said the following:
“Well, why don’t we place juvenile offenders in adult prisons, and then at least offer them parole. I bet they’ll be less willing to commit a crime again after they’ve roughly taken it up the ass by a man named White Power Steve.” (ok, I didn’t add the part about taking it up the ass…but you see what I was going for.) I mean, let’s face it. If a 13 y/o is sent to a maximum security prison for shoplifting, I bet he won’t commit more serious crimes! So the presentation lady tried to tell me why I was wrong. But by that time, the hot food had arrived and I completed my task of offending someone, so I politely excused myself and went to go eat.

i agree. jouvenile's in their own little world will just think it's cool to get out on parole and prove to their cell mates that they can still be bigger and badder.
but nothing's gonna scare them straight more than being locked up with some 40 year old loser who's spent his whole life in jail and has a posse of bitches to attend to his 'needs'
