All of my homies were drug dealers, users, robbers, scam artist or just straight up dregs of the Earth. I thank the creator that I had excellent parents and I was never a follower.

      Sure do, the youth of today needs to know these things. Not just by chance catching a video on TH-cam (although better hear the message than not), rather in the schools. Take away crap like HomeEq & useless shit & have classes about justice & real prison life, with reformed inmates as guest speakers. No need for the speakers to curse, talk loud & all that, just ask a question like "How would you like to suitcase a knife all day for protection?" There may be laughter or giggles at first, then be a bit more assertive & explain the question in greater detail. The giggles will stop fast.
      The system could care less about rehabilitation, return offenders are job security, the DOC doesn't want to see paroled inmates make it. Those most vulnerable are those who has served 10+ years, or 5+ if drug charges & participated in zero treatment. The only rehabilitation has to come from within the heart & soul of the inmate, otherwise it's a revolving door once in the system.

      "Classical (Pavlovian) conditioning can be done with earthworms, and operant (Skinnerian) conditioning can be conducted on rats and pigeons. But there is a third level of learning that pretty much only primates and humans are capable of, and that is what is called social learning.
      This third level of learning, in its most powerful form, revolves primarily around the observation and imitation of a role model. Unlike operant conditioning, in social learning it is not essential that the learner be directly reinforced in order for learning to take place. What is important in social learning is to understand the characteristics that can lead to the selection of a specific individual as a role model.
      The processes that make someone a desirable role model include:
      • Vicarious reinforcement. You see the role model being reinforced in a manner that you can experience vicariously.
      • Similarity to the learner. You perceive that the role model has a key trait that makes him/her similar to you.
      • Social power. The role model has the power to reward (but does not necessarily do so).
      • Status envy. You envy the role model's receipt of rewards from others."

      Where is the violence or the victim if I get arrested with a baggy of coke? Me, I'm the victim. CDC says maybe like 18% of people who use drugs show problematic use, which mean others recreational use does not. we have to stop this draconian enforcement nonsense almost solely targeting poor communities
      If I commit property theft to feed my habit, those are their own offenses; drug possession in and of itself is neither a property nor bodily crime; you arrest people for behaviors that might MIGHT result from consuming the drug...
      there is no crime in possession, otherwise you might as scoup up all those people smoking weed in "legal" states where it's still federally illegal, rigth? it's a drug right, they're possessing it and therefore committing a crime, right?

      they tried that in the 90s.
      reality is, at least for us, we didnt care.
      most of us, especially black kids, knew there are different rules to different areas.
      In the streets, sagging didnt come from prisons. It was a era changing thing that started from us kids wearing hand me downs. Always told we looked cute.
      baggy clothes slowly became a style.
      And just like white people had the "messy hair" or "loose clothing" styles,...black people had the same, but we were looked at negatively. So our messy hair was called nappy. Dreads etc. And our baggy was called thuggish etc...but it all evolved from one era to the next and the catalyst was having to wear so many baggy, loose clothing in low income areas. that's city or country.
      Rappers were just our older brothers and cousins who became rappers. It's not like Kool Moe Dee was doing it. It was the young rappers after them. the young rappers who went through the 80s crack era as a kid. Low income areas. ruined areas. Placs where america had beaten the people of that area...so money was hard to come by. So hand me downs was a normal thing more often than not.
      and everyone wasappreciative.
      even Easter Sunday pictures had us in baggy suits. Either hand me down suits or sizes bought a bit bigger so that we could wear them again.
      Getting money's worth.
      THAT is where sagging became a fad with younger kids. clothes naturally were loose. And young people think stupid things are funny. like letting the underwear show. Like not having a belt. Lazy days whatever.
      Now, within jail, it's obvious that some booty boy was showing ass for a whole other reason.
      just like you wear your favorite team hat for the actual team, but a gangsta wears it for insignia of the gang.
      Just like a hipster wears the flannel and Jeans meant for the laborious work of tree chopping lol.
      One group of people doing one thing for a specific reason, doesnt change why a thing is what it is.
      Personally I never sagged. But I lived that era of it becoming a thing.
      I'm sure if I went to prison I'd come out and see it thesame. Relating the saggers to prison stuff. I do that now as a marine vet. Relating civilian stuff to military stuff. But civilian stuff is just that, civilian stuff.

Well, the police came and took us older boys to the police station. The owner of the store was about to let us go, until one boy mouthed off to him, and he said, "Lock 'em all up!" I didn't know the others at all, so there I was, in Cook County jail. Spent one day, and one night locked up. Eventually, I was freed in court (after a year of continuations), but I quickly realized jail was not for me.

Held in a holding cell and then picked up by my mom etc... But getting off light on all of that dumb little shit indirectly lead up to me committing check fraud at 22 and landing me a week in santa clara county jail before bailing out.

    Big Herc, I married a brother in 1992 with a sentence of 20 years just like your guest. But he never told me any of the stories that I'm listening to now. I visited him in different SHU programs.

    I got snatched when I was 21 years old. I was charged with two different shooting cases. I went to trial on each. I won one and a year later lost the other. Also during this time I was indicted by the feds. By the time it was all over I had got out only a few days short of exact arrest date 10 earlier. Watching these videos not only guys stay out who never went in it also help the ones of us who have been through it and who are on the fence about jumping back in that lifestyle decide to stay on the right track.
