Jul 2

years ago, I did a short stay as a Correctional Officer (small town, minimal security, however...) one of the other officers in a candid moment said "the only difference between them and us is that they got caught"

what we are living now is a different version of that... I am sick, I am angry, I am disgusted, I am feeling very helpless knowing there is very little I can do to remedy this situation
