    Lol at the people with relations in prison.:D

    The first night's the toughest, no doubt about it. They march you in naked as the day you were born, skin burning and half blind from that delousing **** they throw on you.

    The poor structure of your post, the clarification of an unasked question and your (possibly) improperly inserted question mark would lead me to believe you are a Cartesian.

    Ah Mr. Pot! Please meet Mr. Kettle. I'm sure you have a lot in common.

    I wouldn't go attacking a perfectly understandable 8 word sentance either really. Come off it already.

    I do, wont go into things because he would be well known to people on one of the forums. Got done for dealing class A's, he's a nice guy but he was never very subtle about what he was doing. He is paying the price now, hopefully when he gets out in a few years he will still be the same guy and get back into the sport he loves so much. He'll have paid his dues to society by then and I wont judge him for his mistakes.

    So what mind numbingly enigmatic implication are you attempting my dear?

    I think he/she is trying to say you are a knob, clear enough for you?

    A friends husband is currently in the joy. He gets out in about 30 minutes. His shift finishes at 4 o'clock.

    There's one prancing tool in this thread.

    I was sent to prison for a crime I didn't commit with a bunch of my comrades. We promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, we survive as soldiers of fortune.

    If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find us, maybe you can hire the C-Team.

    Jesus, and you're the eviltwin?

    Yep. Its weird. I never would have expected this person to do what they did - child sexual abuse. Never saw a single sign, never saw it coming. We come from a decent family, my parents would be the type to go back to the shop if they got a cent too much back in their change. It has torn our family apart, half took the side of the victim, half still believe the abuser is innocent so for all the snide jokes the reality is pretty horrible for all concerned. Of course his victim is the one really suffering and I just hope she is finding a way to move on with her life.

    As for the facebook mention, one of his friends was in for aggrivated burglary and was constantly updating his page " via iphone " so doesn't say much for the regulations. Having said that, the updates were pretty much the same every time : )

    What sort of stuff does he post?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,281 ✭✭✭mackeire


    A friend of mine went missing a few years ago. Nobody knew where he was. he was gone for about 2 months, his family didn't even know where he was.

    Turned out he had been in south america living the high life. he was sent over by some dublin drug dealer to bring back a load of coke. He got from paraguay to frankfurt, frankfurt to paris and was sitting on the plane in paris when he was taken off the plane and arrested.

    He ended up getting a 5 year sentence and done about 2 and a half years of it. He had some crazy stories to tell about the paris prison.

    He told me about a fella called pirate who would go around stabbing people over the smallest things.

    He was fluent in french when he got out and also, the drug dealer who sent him over was murdered so he didn't owe out any money when he got back!

    I was the court clerk one day when a guy from my year in secondary school got sentenced to a few months. That felt a bit awkward.

    Our whole family thinks one of our cousins is in prison in America, nobody has seen or heard from the guy in over 10 years and his mother isn't very forthcoming on info as to what he's up to. She'll talk the ear off you telling you what his sister is doing though.

    Yeah, it was more a satirical reference to the fact that if your from a working class background or come from a bad area you're more likely to be convicted and receive a longer sentence.

    Ah, so because I am from a working class family I'm probably a knacker. Okey dokey.

    If you know someone who is a pr!ck, does that make you one aswell?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,352 ✭✭✭El Horseboxo


    I've 2 cousins in prison. One In Tegucigalpa in Honduras for drug trafficking. He's a member of some Mexican gang. My other one is in a prison in Oklahoma for armed robbery. He's also affiliated with some gang. Feckin Latinos.

    I'm also pretty sure some friends I've had from high school ended up in prison.

    Don't know about that ;) I destroyed with my ingeniously satirical jape at her apparently unintentional subscription to Cartesian doubt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,605 ✭✭✭Fizman


    Slightly off topic, but I know of someone who is a prison officer. About 3 years ago she was caught riding an inmate. She was suspended for a period of time, but is now back in her original role. Some system eh!

    You imply (and then state) that you could only know someone in prison if you were a knacker. Then you say that if you are from a working class area you are more likely to to be convicted of a crime - implying then that you would have to be from a working class area to know someone in prison - thereby indicating that you believe that people from working class backgrounds are knackers - no?

    Maybe I got it wrong, and if so I'm sure you'll be happy to clear it up ;)
