There’s not exactly a lot that is humane about our prison system…
Well maybe, just maybe, you get the '08 me
Fresh out the county feeling crazy
No meds in eight months feeling turnt, don’t play me

We throw people with mental health issues in jail with no meds for months pending trial then drop charges on the daily. Just release them on the streets with no money or way to feed themselves, let alone see a doctor and get back on meds.
I’m not saying we can’t fix one thing if we don’t fix everything, just that prison reform should be a much bigger topic than it is.
We ain’t reforming prisoners, our justice system just produces more criminals. It’s hard enough to get a job and a place to live, imagine if you had to do it with a felony, and you had 8 hours to solve it. It’s starve or do more crime.
Providing medically nessecary care to prisoners of the state just feels like basic humanity.

Shit isn’t going to fix itself.
