It would be very helpful if you would educate the people who don't know what conditons abuses have been going on. Some solid examples are very Beneficial for you cause. Details will help the hard case people in charge you know exactly what is going on behind those concrete walls. Most people will just answer yes, I'm protesting because of general ideas and reasons. Just to say the catch phrases prisoners are being treated inhumanly, being beat up is not enough in my opinion.

For example the UPS strike. How many people really knew why they were on strike? The workers and teamsters were not prepared by correct verse to explain their case to the media and the world. It would aggravate me so when the news would put some young person on the interview and they would ask why and all they could say was "yeah we are on strike because Carey said so" The real reason was not money, or benefits like the company claimed. We were all happy with those things. Part Timers went on strike because out of 100 UPS drivers only 20 of them were full time. Those that were working 40-50 hours a week wanted to be full time. They kept spinning it to look like they were money hungry and the strikers could not defend themselves because they did not realize how important it was to detail their cause.

Sorry to make that such a long example. But my big point is give us an outline at what the gross defects are. Such as prisoners are not being supplied clean drinking water.....
There is no heat........ water freezes and the pipes burst.......
Men (prisoners ???? Names and dates are important.) are beaten so badly they need bones set and stitches.........The systems ignores policy such as .......??????......??????? by this warden ???

I don't know if these claims are true but you get my meaning? I think about 5 to six horrible examples that give a round of true vision of what is going on inside.

Maybe make copies of exerts of Paul's letters on poster board signs to let protesters carry around.

Blowup that picture of the prisoners that got the crap beat out of him

Try to find some replicas of the restraints that they place on prisoners get a person to model these?

They think the public is blind deaf to their system and to the most part we are. Visualize this systems abuse as much as possible. Tell them as much as you can.

Torrey,I understand totally.That is why I am posting these articals.I think it is better comming from one who is living it,rather than me posting second hand news.I also think if Sabine drops by here,she would be able to tell you more,she is Pauls best friend,and in contact with others there.As for the signs,they have already been made,and were used for the wednesday protests at polunsky during the month of march.I am only posting Paul Colellas accounts,but there are more,that I will post in the future.Accounts by Rich Cartwright,Hank Skinner,Rick Rhodes,Roy Pippen,the list goes on,and on.And like I said,I dont want to sugar coat anything.I want you all to read the accual accounts,by the people who are going through these things.I hope I have answered your question.God bless....................Spencer

Hey I am in let me know I can't stand what they are doing and someone has to do something..
