What are racial/gang politics like in Michigan prison? Are there organized black groups other than the Muslims? What about Latino and white groups?
Do the black Muslims run everybody or is it more of a self segregated system? Thanks. Good luck staying free!

IS/ISIS/Dawla Islamiya is being supported by wealthy individuals in Saudi Arabia (and to a lesser extent across the Muslim world), there is extensive proof on this. What is more controversial is whether or not the Saudi government is facilitating this.

Should we lock up liquor store dealers because people die from alcohol everyday? He was a desperate kid who did something dumb.
Even if you hate drug addicts and want them to suffer, Sending him to jail for that is counterproductive and needlessly expensive.

The combination of opioids' addictive potential and capacity for building tolerance means it's very easy to get addicted beyond ones means. This is especially true if you start dope as a teenager.
If we see drug addiction as a moral failing we won't solve the drug problem. This is primarily a chronic mental health disease and we need to treat it as such, not just because it's just, but also because incarceration is not effective in curbing problematic drug use.
