I think your time in prison has made you a really wise and compassionate man. You seem to have a lot of respect for women. You also seem like you would be a very good influence on your cell mate and all the other inmates. I like the photo of you, your sister and your niece. Have wonderful thoughts this Easter season! May God bless you, Milley
@Bethanie11, I can only assume by your comment that you are not familiar with Mr. Clark and his cases. He was not stereotyped (or is profiled the new hip expression.) Perhaps a little research would open your mind to the possibility that he is trying to shift responsibility (again). He has a history of blaming others.
why do you feel names have no weight in our current society? With the internet they might have more weight right? people can find you more easily by searching for your name. they can find all your content. What do you think about name dropping? e.g., I say I've been talking with madonna etc. it gives me a certain status to drop certain names.
What does a name mean for you now? Why do you think it's important to keep your name instead of a number? how related is your name to your identity?
Yes, things happen in prison and it can be dangerous. But most men I know (I worked with folks in prison) learned ways to avoid problems. Especially as they got older.
Or they didn't.
It's true that you can't control anyone else. But you can control yourself and there are often many ways to stop a disagreement (especially if it is fomenting over many years).
I think that's a relatively harsh comment to make Paul.
Unfortunately, the reality is that 50% of the time it is someone else's fault. Just because this man is a prisoner it doesn't mean that he is a bad man and you can assume that he is lying about the events that have taken place.
Here we go again.........always someone else to blame. If they let you recreate on your own that would also be a problem. Would you have been happy to report that they pepper-sprayed you and everyone else on the yard or that you were hit by a gas ball gun?
Stand up and take responsibility for once. DOC didn't create your problem with the other inmate.

Even in prison.
