Whatsup my comrades. I was wondering which of you has been to jail or prison and what your experiences you had and how it shaped you. I've been to 2 jails in Massachusetts, Essex County & Worcester County. Essex was a breeze and I got out in 30 days, not a tough bid. Worcester was a completely different beast though. In Worcester I was in the psychiatric section, we were spending 22 hours a day in the cells, plus I'd done a week in solitary confinement before that. How did it shape me? It brought out the animal in me. With women now I am super assertive. I have a devil may care attitude as a result of being confined, dark days going to court in the paddy wagon caged like an animal. What are your experiences gents?
