A friends son works in a youth prison and he has had to cut a young girl down from hanging in her cell three times the past two weeks. She’s a Blak kid who has attempted suicide three times...this is the system...this is your “justice” system
It made me think of when I was inside, on NOC (a notice of concern due to my extreme mental distress) and an officer came in and told me where all the hanging points were, encouraging me to hang myself from any one of them

No kid deserves to be in a cage
NOONE deserves to be exiled in a cage
