How can you provide safety from flooding/drowning when you have people locked in cages?
If you have a warrant, turn yourself in to the jail - it's a secure shelterhttps://twitter.com/polkcosheriff/status/905438240278278144 …

Good question. Let's ask New Orleans' prison system -https://www.hrw.org/news/2005/09/21/new-orleans-prisoners-abandoned-floodwaters …
-
That is absolutely horrible.

So yeah, I'd consider any person with a warrant who stays far away from the police during a hurricane to be simply preserving their life.

What is wrong with you? So if someone has a warrant for a ticket it's jail or death.... You should lock yourself up!
-
Well they have about 4 days to pay there tickets.

Wait, everybody knows u get charged $$$ for jail time right?!
-
I'm not sure they do man. Not sure.
-
And when u can't pay guess what happens?? U go to jail
-
Though some counties charge a pay to stay fee it is unconstitutional to re-jail someone for not being able to pay the fee after time served.
-
1st ur right, 2nd police n corrections don't specialize in constitutional law, 3rd it doesn't matter wen ppl got guns n can use'em
-
Civil liberties organizations have successfully filed and won lawsuits pertaining to this subject. Corrections are not courts.
-
Again I agree, but not everyone is aware of their rights so ppl get exploited

Tell that to the inmates that were trapped and left to starve in prison during Katrina.

That's a lie, a pretty big one at that unless you have a source of this???
-
Since you're lazy https://www.hrw.org/news/2005/09/21/new-orleans-prisoners-abandoned-floodwaters … ... but thanks for accusing me of lying about something so easily verifiable.
-
It isn't lazy since I'm the one asking you to provide a source and why didn't you give me the source from vice? or was HRW just better?
-
Not sure why vice would have been any better. HRW is an NGO that investigates violations internationally. Article was from 2005. Vice: 2015.
