Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Photos released by the sheriff's office show the inside of a cell where the escape is believed to have happened. A large hole was cut behind a toilet with phrases such as "We Innocent" and "Too Easy LoL" written above it.

haha.

anyway, of course the framing is "they are endangering everyone around them, including their families" because the cops want everybody to know that they will open fire in any situation and blow away passersby, because collective punishment is policy.

secondly, the bozos in charge of the facility are claiming their jail is underfunded. good god, i would love to see NOLA's funding and the amount of funding their police force/punishment apparatus gets (both as a portion of funding and from local funds, state funds and federal grants). it's gotta be wild, as a percentage, compared to almost any city of the same size in the developed world... even probably compared to a lot of the US.

They are mad corrupt, though.

That is a tiny gap to slide through. Are they kids?

It's actually the comically large communism toilet everyone shares. That's why 10 people escaped. It's the number they needed to move the damn thing.
