Joe...30 yrs ago, yes, a drug offense and yes, I became a believer the first week in the county jail. But you know what, after a few months and mind you I had it easy, in a minimum custody place, actually spent time with watergate people, you don't care anymore. What are they going to do, lock you up, bfd or put you in solitary, ooooooo.
After you get institutionalized, its not the joint its who are in it that's the scary part, some real crazy loons in those places. Since I was federalized I got to travel some in the system and when I was released, I somehow got to spent about a month in the big house, leavenworth....not a place for the weak at heart and trust me a eye opener, forever made me a believer and the only thing I have a problem with is the speeding thing down the road but I have been reformed some in that dept. I now am a 10 mile over offender or less and only on occasion will I get over 100
