"My Worst Day at CMC"

Hello everyone, on 2/12/13 I woke up in a real good mood, hoping that my day would be a good one. "Boy was I wrong". The program office called me in for classification. So I wait till 2pm then I go in and my counselor gives me a lot of bad news. First of all I go in and there was my counselor + a Lt, a few other counselors and a A-Warden. So classification starts out with Mr Tinsley has been at CMC for 4 years with only 2 write ups. They dish out the punishment which is 6 months Cover C status, which means I have to be locked in my cell at 1pm every weekday and all day on the weekends. I'm no longer allowed the following: no job, they fired me. No phone calls. No night yard. No packages from the streets. No visits 1 year. They are moving me away from my cellmate to a cell that has no power. They will take my TV, Walkman, ear buds/all personal property I own. Last but least they are transferring me out of CMC. Keep in mind this is the best mellowest prison in all of California. So after classification does this to me I go back to my cell and give my cellie the bad news. Then if you thought it couldn't get any worse for me, check out what happens next. 5pm that night count clears and me and my cellie go eat chow. Then we walk back to our cell. 6pm the tier guard, a x sgt who got demoted back to reg. guard is working my tier.

He comes to my cell and says I'm locking your cell door. I show him my medical card and work card, mind you this was my last work day. He don't lock my cell door and allows me to go to med call, work. 7pm I got meds out of the way and work and just as I'm walking into my building I hear my name over the P.A., Tinsley, report to your cell, you're C status. As I walk in the bldn a sgt says Are you Tinsley, yea. I run the scoop down I was at meds/work now I'm going to my cell. Now here is where it gets ugly. I get to my cell and there is 2 guards in my cell tearing it up. Disrespecting mine and my cellie's property. Shit is thrown everywhere. The 1 ex sgt demoted asswipe tells me Tinsley, you're Cover C, you're supposed to be in your cell. I said Are you fucking kidding me, you told me that I was allowed to go to meds/work. He gave me the green light then you're tearing up my pad. This guard is a fat Santa Maria or somewhere in the area guard who talks like a Southern gang banger Mexican. This punk and his friend took my TV/antenna extension cord/earbuds/Walkman etc. He took all my property. He told me Tinsley, first thing in the morning you are being moved. My cellie walks up and asked Dude, why are you tearing my property up, disrespecting my cell. Obviously they could care less what we say. After all, we're just cattle to them anyway. Us convicts doing time is a "FREE RIDE" for these hoto's. These assholes are why California is broke. These guards are the "fleecing of America". Then as they are throwing this that out of our cell onto the tier, they are saying Is this item on your property list, I'll keep this, I'll keep that. They are putting all our property into boxes for them to dispose of. This is a prime example why the guards are bullies.

Anyways, it's Feb 13th 2013, the day after they destroyed my pad and took everything I own. I woke up this morning and I have nothing, I'm waiting to be moved away from my cellie who we've lived together for 4 years. I no longer have a job, no way to make any type of living. I am not allowed to have my family order me a care package. I can't use the phone to talk to my family for 6 months. I don't have a TV to watch, no radio and also I'm gonna get transferred out of CMC asap. So my friends, my life has just been turned upside down and my program can't really get any worse. Basically my life here at CMC is over, when they put me on a prison bus I'll be sent to whatever prison they want to shoot me to. + wherever I land at the white convicts there will either stab me or beat me up badly, stomp me out. Most likely both for me doing time at CMC. CMC is a prison where people of all different convictions are sent to. Everyone gets along, minds their own business. They will get me for being here so I am in for a lot of problems. There isn't any politics at CMC, they have inmates who are sex offenders, ex police etc and for me knowing this and not attacking them I'll be attacked for it. CMC will be throwing me to the SHARKS. The worst part of all of this shit is I'm not going to be able to stay here and do easy time with my cellmate. He is one of my best friends and I'm gonna miss him when they transfer me. These punk ass bully ass coward guards here have fucked off my program - it's almost like they are taking it out on me for what Christopher Durner just done in California. They executed him, that's how they roll in California.

Prison guards are bullies/cowards and they take shit out on us for any reasons. I want to apologize to everyone for my language and bad attitude but damn, these punks really fucked me yesterday. So 2013 has started off very badly, it makes 2012 look like Disneyland. I don't like writing about negative shit but once again prison is all about negativity. I'm just trying to do my life sentence as mellowest as possible but these pussy ass victim guards just don't want that. I've been down for almost 20 yrs and the guards who work at this mellow ass prison are victims from working at prisons where chances are they were victimized by inmates. And now they are taking it out on us. We didn't do anything to them, we are just trying to do our time. They treat us like cattle, like subhumans, and the worst part is "no one" on the streets realize any of this. Wanna hear something crazy, I've always shown every man I've ever met with respect despite what job they have but CDCR guards show no inmate with any type of respect. I just avoid them like they ain't even on my planet. I don't speak to them less they talk to me. I have no issue/problem with them, I don't respect them due to I know what they are about/stand for. They aren't here just doing a job to support a family, they go out of their way to dog us. Every last 1 of them hate us and they make it very clear to us. I'm very sorry that I have to go. The guards just told me that I have to move a few cells down with the white dude who is a weirdo and I can't do it so I'll most like be put in the hole for refusing to house. I'll write when I can, OK.

Send me comments soon.
I could really use the mail.

Thanks
