Gadget...When did I say or even suggest in any of my posts that I am "Queen Christian"? That's just a sarcastic remark you apparently find amusing. I haven't made any sarcastic remarks. I have said I understood the pressures you men and women work under and I have admired your decision to choose that kind of work. I just said that when you posture about how tough you are and what you would like to do to the people you despise, it sounds very unprofessonal and frankly I hate the fact that you find it so necessary to sound so angry and frankly as mean as many of your charges. I never said you had to like all inmates, or not come to conclusions as to why they are incarcerated. But yet you seem to judge and sterotype. I don't lump all CO's or even TDCJ in one pot and judge you all the same way. We are all individuals and inmates are included in that as much as you don't seem to understand that. Don't try the strawman bit. I'm much better than that.

...you don't mention them at all, but mention the inmates twice? Nah. That doesn't wash. ... Gadget: I can understand your concern and feel certain that others identified the same glaring deficiencies in my blog. If that stuff is true about how you helped prisoners who were bent on hurting themselves, you may be doing exactly what policy requires. Keep up the good work. I did go a little over board by suggesting that the prisoner's families might need our prayers and agreeing to provide the names of those organizations that accept donations. I stopped contributing to causes at my unit, because I felt the money was being appropriated without the recepient's effective consent. You can still be the best person you can be and decline Christian spirituality at the same time. I appreciate your candor. If I knew you better, I have a feeling that I would trust you more than a great number of the people who claim to identify with Christianity. I like your apparent honesty. My fault. Carry on. ETA; I'm not looking for glory. If I was, I wouldn't have come to TDCJ. My point is that I have suffered stuff that most sane people wouldn't have to save the worthless life of a drain on the state. BUT, the state is responsible for people it chooses to remove from the populous. And that's the bottom line. and I'm perfectly frank about my lack of spirtuality. You can IM me if you like. No issues there at all. I don't believe in Jesus, nor flying spagetti monsters, nor assorted bug a boos that go "bump" in the night.

If there are any newboots watching this thread, read Apostles post above. Very good advice for a newboot. You're right about that.... Even only a whopping six months into my TDCJ career, I can see that her garbage has no real purpose here. Although I don't wish any harm on my inmates and will do all I can to protect them from harm, I'm not blind to the fact that there are some wrong-minded but well-intentioned people who have been manipulated by inmates and have tons of misplaced sympathy for them. That's the biggest reason that I HATE working visitation; the hug-a-thugs and prison-groupies are out in force, as well as the loyal women who are dragging their five children into a penitentiary for "childhood memory" moments with dad. Where was dad's loyalty while he was out doing whatever got him locked up?

Hey. Don't knock those childhood memories. Job security. They'll want to be just like Daddy when they grow up.

.... They are all the same, we are required to treat them all the same- any correctional officer who would attempt to decipher which offender is an "okay guy that made a mistake" is setting themselves up for failure. .... I think that is why the guards decided to let them all burn, rather than release any of them. That is a good point. I am beginning to realize why they all had to go. "They are all the same, we are required to treat them the same -" ....

Exactly. Fair & equitable treatment for everyone. It's wrong and illegal to provide a benefit to one that you will not provide to all. Due Process demands it. If you can't save them all, they all should be French-Fried golden brown, and equally done on each side. It's the right, proper, legal, and moral way to handle the situation.

There's an ACA officer at Michael Unit in Tennessee Colony named Sylvia who enjoys strip and cavity searching all Central Americans and Mexicans especially gang members. She gets off on it. OIG won't do anything even though she has had sexual experience with some inmates.

I use to go to the airport on my days off just to go through the pat down process a few time at a time, but they've figured out I don't intend to fly anywhere. I've been told I can only go through the pat down once a month unless I really intend to fly. It's un-American I tell you, un-American!

Marty, Its losers like you that should be FIRED from TDCJ and not even be allowed to drive a car. Its True, an Inmate would save a Guard in TDC before a wimp guard would save an Inmate, I have seen it.
