Hell yeah. Never would be but I worked in the prison systems.
And unless you're a rapist, child molester, gang related, or some other bottom tier ranks you're pretty much safe. More so if you just keep to yourself and/or certain people. In fact for some it's a freaking holiday camp - three square meals, exercise equipment, television, contraband if it can be sneaked in, visiting hours (even conjugal visits), etc. - compared to living out among regular people
Freaking sad when prisoners are in ways treated better than law obeying senior citizens by governments.

Friend (male): No, I would probably piss someone off enough to kill me.
Me: Yes, but I would probably get really mentally scarred and physically scarred for life.
I wouldn’t want to… The places are basically filled with Blacks and Hispanics where I’m from. I think it’s like 11% White here. I’m sure I could survive… I’m tall, muscular, have a deep voice, and can handle myself well. I’m pretty intimidating when I want to be and I’ve done enough dirt to understand crime well. I don’t really get lonely and weird living arrangements don’t bother me… Division based on race would be the biggest issue in my opinion. I’d always be outnumber 4 or 5 to 1 if anything happened.
I think most guys could.. except... the rape thing. If you think about it, the authorities let that go on and everyone laughs about it but everyone could end up there. There are plenty of people in prison because the legal system grinds out convictions through plea bargains. Harsh “anti crime” laws were enacted (eg “three strikes”) which took any discretion away from judges (who themselves are mostly former prosecutors) and have it to the DA’s -kind of like letting the “home team” pick the referees.

I don't why but over last year or so this has been on my mind - I used to think that if you kept quiet and head down you might get threw it but there seems to be a lot of prison dramas on, how true they are I don't know but there seems to be a lot more gang culture and protection rackets going on than I realised - The lone wolf thing wouldn't work I think so I reckon it would be hell.
Probably. I mean, most people do, it’s not like most people get killed in prison, they do their time and leave. I’m sure it can be a rough ride for some, but it’s survivable.

The food would be the worst part for me...”and the other thing”😂😂😂Most likely. There are some differences from prison to military, but the atmosphere of being deprived certain rights would be familiar. The only issue I'd have is the fact I keep to myself when prison life is about making alliances to survive and then fearing your allies.
I know I can. Not proud of myself by any stretch of the imagination, but I made it through 4 and a half years. Burglaries.. when I was younger, and obviously stupider.. we all have a past, its whether or not you learn from the experience and I most assuredly did. Unlike a lot of guys (and girls I guess) I've never been back. These days I'm about as upstanding a citizen as anyone else. Live and learn
a lot of babies weak dudes here
im not that suprised that many makes here are speaking facts
personally I'll be able to survive since I have lived by myself sñfrom the ages of 16-22 & all throughout I've run into alit of crazy drama/beefs with many different types of peopleProbably yeah. But only if there was a legitimate reason for me to be there.
I'd probably spend all my time doing pull ups and other exercises working out.
Basic food snd water. No responsibilities. I could handle it.I m a Master at Adjusting very Quickly, Making Friends and making People feel Good. I would have no Problem, What else Could I Do? xxoo
No I wouldn’t want to and I’d probably do it solitary because I’m psycho as $hit and paranoid and anti social. I would never want to go there or plan on it.
If it was Prison prison I'd probably be gone by lunch. I have no ability to intimidate anyone so I"d probably be toast.
I went to jail for four days on some traffic shit and I thought I was going to lose my mind. JAIL, not prison.
Yes. It is certainly one of the least desirable lives I could imagine, but I maintain that ANY life is better than no life at all.
No i can berly survive the prison that my mind has been in since 10 years ago. I have struggled every second til now. Only when i go to sleep i rest sometimes😂.
F no. It’s too structured, and I couldn’t identify with any gangs for protection. I’ve read OitNB, I’ll keep on the relatively straight and narrow.
I think I could. I an adapt really well when my life circumstances change and I have a good survival mode :P.
This question is flawed and I will explain why.
A life sentence ends when you die. It could be a few hours to decades. If you get parole (which mist likely would not happen) or clemency you did not serve a life sentence in prison.I'd get bored by the end of the week. I'd end up killing myself just to see whats on the other side. What have you got to lose 🤣
I don’t think I could. Solitary confinement would drive me crazy
Yeah but I won’t. Short drop and a sudden stop.
And no I’m not suicidal so don’t bother reporting the comment :/Nope. Which is why I didn't kill anyone.
Also, I don't look great in orange.No I would not be able. I like being able to go where I want when I want.
