    In November 2022, an inmate at the facility’s low-security prison camp pulled out a gun and attempted to shoot a visitor in the head. The weapon, which the inmate shouldn’t have had …

    Well, that seems a bit obvious.

      Just to take a jab at the US from a European perspective…

      You don’t have the right to bear arms in prison? I thought guns were sacred in the US!?

        Careful, I’m sure there’s some asswipe from where I grew up who wants to throw a bunch of guns in and walk away to let them “sort it out” or some shit. If you go redneck enough reality begins to satirize satire.

          We’re probably like 3 or 4 main timeline events away from this becoming a legitimate state policy - and it’s not much longer before it is made into a reality TV show for public entertainment.

          Nothing in the second amendment says who should have guns at all unless you interpret it as saying only a militia should have them. That’s a big part of the problem.
