It's 2017 & I'm somehow dragged into a twitter debate on slavery where people are saying I'm pro-slavery. I need a break from this website.
Except the Bernie Bros are making up their own facts. This isn't forced labor; the inmates get to use the experience for jobs upon release.

Exactly, I worked at a court house, it's a volunteer system where trustees get more freedom & time off of their sentences. It's not slavery.
-
They had no choice. This is not volunteering
-
No, they had a choice, it's voluntary. They also all got job offers when they were released & were planning their futures.
-
Don't confuse them with facts. It agitates their bee-like dance & necessitates all kinds of pheromonal adjustments.
-
Good point, they just want the faux indignation to attract other Bros. Rather than read people benefited.
-
It is not just faux indignation; it's their version of getting high, the poor little guys.
-
Exactly, it's their intoxicant. I noticed they kept bring up other programs just to keep their supply going, rather than admit they're wrong
-
They don't have any particular agenda other than to ensure that actual ppl who actually believe in Bernie are made to look like idiots.

"slavery was really good work experience"
-
Except they were not forced. They volunteer to participate. You must think prison cells are wonderful places to hang out.
-
Of course they want to leave their cages. Them volunteering for this doesn't make it less abhorrent that Hillary used slave labor
-
What's interesting is sudden focus on Arkansas' state run program (over which HRC had no prerogative) NOW. It's not just stale; it's odd.
-
Right. Totally forgot there's an expiration date for being upset about people using slave labor.
-
No, really, have you ever spoken to an ex-con who was in one of these programs? Betcha haven't. Betcha you're simply playing parrot. Shame.
-
You'd lose that bet
-
No, I would not lose that http://bet.You aren't even remotely involved in the issue, parrot.

Must be nice to live in your world.

Nice? Ever served time in prison? Do you have any idea what it is like to be within prison walls? But *you* know from . . . um . . . slogans

I'll tell my brother how lucky he is to pick up trash in Suwannee while a deputy stands by with a shotgun.

Do me a favor and never vote.

I would love it if you could tell me you've ever spoken with an ex-con about this program.
-
Go to the south and ask any black person if they know an ex-con
