I’m writing this in my diary – well, not my diary per se; actually it’s my sorely-ignored writing notebook because my purse can only fit so many books – then transcribing it to the internet. Here’s a few reason’s why: 1) I needed to get out of the house, 2) I’ve been ignoring my RL diary for too long, 3) some things need to be written down by hand first.But first, a description to get back into the flow of writing, because apart from the Kitty Attack Challenge, it’s been over six months since my last confession I last wrote anything. I’m in a mall – where, apparently, you’re allowed to smoke;** and I thought the Dutch were progressive! – called Megastore, just a block from the HS train station. I’m on the ground floor at the other end of where I came in, next to a giant Christmas tree tastefully decorated in small white lights and large red and gold baubles. I’m sitting at the Hot ‘n Cold Coffee and Sandwich Café, which is where I got my E2.95 Ham en Kaas Tosti (Ham and Cheese grilled sandwich or croque monsieur). This, along with 2 mandarins and a banana, will be lunch, because I could hardly fit into my riding boots yesterday and something’s got to change. And since exercising regularly will be as likely as seeing the Invisible Pink Unicorn, god of atheists, I might as well ensure my caloric intake reflects my activity levels.
Yesterday, Georgia prisoners filed a class-action lawsuit “contending that Georgia corrections officers have systematically beaten restrained inmates in prisons throughout the state, leaving two dead and dozens of others injured,” according to the Macon Telegraph.
The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Valdosta, names 25 guards and other corrections officials as culprits in routine beatings and torture of restrained inmates. It also claims they subsequently covered up the abuses by inflicting even more beatings on prisoners who file complaints.
The phrase “”neither banishment beyond the limits of the state nor whipping shall be allowed as a punishment for a crime” in the Georgia Constitution is being used as a basis for arguing that the beatings are “unconstitutional.”
I didn’t realize the Constitution had to used to prove that beating people — including prisoners — was wrong or illegal, but so be it.
