read somewhere that in response, guards are cutting food rations by 60%

that's fascinating...the media blackout is no big surprise since the private prison system and companies like Wal-Mart benefit greatly from minimally compensated physical labor (I think they had a name for that back in the day), but it's interesting to see that something like this can be organized on a large scale even by those affected by perhaps the ultimate form of oppression.

unfortunately I don't really see this getting any real traction since they're "just a bunch of thugs."
