Every one recognizes and acknowledges Law, whether its complying with it or violating it, the fact of the matter is law is simply an affirmation of existence and its terms. A society or The Social Contract as The State or Commonwealth of Virginia exist because of and as a result of it, regardless and irrespective of quality and condition. Under this almost 4 year administrative term of Glenn Youngkin and his Virginia Republican Party, (which will conclude and end, This November 4th, election day, with either his Party retaining reins or Virginia Democrats regaining it) what the People of Virginia have been subjected to is a constant and continuous steam of news and revelations of the Virginia prison official behaving above law and outside of it, with complicity from Governor Glenn Youngkin. Yes primary responsibility for what are terms of The Social Contract, or Law, meaning the positive nature and direction of Virginia, rest with The People of Virginia as based on and expressed during each election period and how they vote.

As The People of Virginia gear up to vote in November 2025, unlike times past when Virginia Democrats and their allies cowered from responding to the law breaking and corrupt behavior of the Virginia prison official and The Virginia Department of Corrections, because Virginia Republicans had effectively exploited fears and the base illiteracy surrounding it. The People of Virginia are now in possession of clear and unavoidable facts, unassailable ones, that unequivocally state that Republicans have no ground, no authority to lecture anyone, hell not even the Biblical devil on Law, Justice and Accountability, as such have nothing to contribute to the, "always being reformed" issue of the Virginia prison official's professional behavior and the Virginia Department of Corrections and if anything have only exposed for all to see that savagery and barbarity as governmental policy, administered by the current Virginia prison official under the leadership of Governor Glenn Youngkin and his Virginia Republicans has no place in modern, contemporary Virginia and has only caused and ended up in Virginia prisoners self-immolating, setting themselves on fire in it's abject protest. The People of Virginia and The Social Contract didn't send their sons and daughters, their fellow Virginians, to the sanction of imprisonment for them to speak with self-immolation, for them to set themselves on fire in declaration that savagery and barbarity is found nowhere in Virginia's Constitution and its Law and no one is above law, in particular the prison official. What this November election presents and positions is the centrality of the question of Glenn Youngkin and his Virginia Republican view of what is the Virginia prisoner, to which their response has been, "dehumanization", but what their response, has in turn and consequently revealed, is that unforseen but clearly there in plain sight formulation, which is the Republican view of the prisoner is also their defacto view of The Virginia People, those who don't fall under their Republican rubric of "PEOPLE". No matter how pretzel contorted, the Virginia Republican twist in parroting the Napoleonic, Animal Farm maxim that "some animals are more equal than others", The People of Virginia will pursue and affirm that NO ONE IS ABOVE LAW, IN PARTICULAR THE PRISON OFFICIAL.

ON JANUARY 9TH, 2025 STATE DEL. MICHAEL JONES IS QUOTED AS DESCRIBING THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS PLACEMENT OF FUTURE PRISONS AS "ASININE", WHICH QUITE FRANKLY ISNT THE ISSUE, BUT HOLDING THE BEHAVIOR OF THE VIRGINIA PRISON OFFICIAL ACCOUNTABLE IS AND IT'S HIS AND HIS FELLOW ASSEMBLY FOLKS DUTY AND RESPONSIBILITY TO DO SO By William Thorpe

Of course The Virginia Department of Corrections is an Administrative haven for those stuck and mired in the supremacist delusions of a type of Virginian and it isn't just the Department and its prison official human element, but one of Virginia's major political Party's, The Republican Party and certain factions of Virginia's Protestant Christianity that are allied with it are proponents, endorsing it and laboring like "the thief in the night "advancing it. As a Black Virginian, none of this is news to Del. Michael Jones and here are some examples of the Virginia supremacist delusion, VA. STATE CONF. NAACP v. CNTY.SCH.BOARD OF SHENANDOAH CNTY. 2025 U.S.DIST. LEXIS 11726---IBANEZ v. ALBEMARLE COUNTY SCH.BD.80 Va. App. 169 (and in conjunction study this work by The Hon. Lisa M. Lorish and Elizabeth Putfark THE EMERGING VIRGINIA CONSTITUTION: OPEN QUESTION OF INTERPRETATION, AND HOW THEIR RESOLUTION MAY IMPACT UNENUMERATED RIGHTS 59 U.RICH.L.REV.ONLINE 23) and lastly TAYLOR v. NORTHAM 300 Va. 230----you the reader can also study this work for more grasp of the sympathies of state organized violence, which the prison official is towards supremacism----BLUE BY DAY AND WHITE BY (K)NIGHT: REGULATING THE POLITICAL AFFILIATIONS OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AND MILITARY PERSONNEL 81 IOWA L.REV.1079 (1996) by ROBIN D. BARNET. What holds any society and terms of its Social Contract together and integral is, Accountability and the problem with Virginia's Social Contract, is its lack. Yes we applaud Del. Michael Jones on his efforts on voicing and exposing the Virginia Department of Corrections predilections for breaking the law and its presumptions of impunity as supported by its supremacist allies, our work however is to wrestle accountability onto those delusions and presumptions.

Now in light of the state of The Virginia Department of Corrections, this is what we say to Del. Michael Jones and the Virginia General Assembly: The issue isn't necessarily where Virginia builds its prisons or who has the privilege of carrying out the will and intent of The People of Virginia in imprisoning its fellow citizens, but it is that of ensuring that those tasked with it, administering the imprisonment, the Virginia Prison Official does it under law and is accountable to law and its process.In other words actually applying the "NO ONE IS ABOVE LAW" to the Virginia prison official who has forever behaved with impunity. The usual hand wringing over holding the prison official accountable that we get from the Virginia Politician not only mocks The People of Virginia but it betrays and dismisses the very human condition of The Commonwealth. What we say is this, if the Virginia Department of Corrections and it allies want to build prisons in the nether regions and reaches of The Commonwealth, its rural areas, for whatever disclosed and undisclosed reasons, we respond with: The creation and establishment of a Virginia Department of Corrections System Investigation, headquartered at Virginia's urban areas. Its Secretary--Head has to be a Statewide elected position and the Department will have the sole and singular responsibility of investigating all claims of professional malbehavior of the Virginia prison official and the Virginia Department of Corrections. Secondly, the creation and establishment of a Court(s), to prosecute and adjudicate crimes against the Virginia prisoner by the Virginia prison official (there are all sorts of precedents for this with the logic being well established) Thirdly, The structure of a dedicated video and audio feed in real time via cameras worn by all prison employees during ALL use of force, i.e cell extractions ,hog tying in the black box, use of dogs e.t.c, on the Virginia prisoner to the proposed Virginia Department of Corrections Systems Investigation in real time. Fourthly, the creation of an APP on The Electronic Tablets, just like the "trouble shooting" submissions on the tablet, but its used for the Virginia prisoner Grievance process, specifically to be a verification mechanism, intended to make prison officials honest over the entire grievance process,(see this case, where a Federal Judge found that Red Onion State Prison officials had lied or weren't credible over the processing of a prisoner's grievance----BLOUNT v. FLEMING 2006 U.S.DIST.LEXIS 44413----the importance of eliminating the ability of the Virginia prison official to play games is two fold (1) Federal and Virginia law requires prisoners exhaust or complete the grievance process in order to sue the prison official and more often than not the prison obstructs the prisoners ability and then claims that the prisoner failed to comply with the law, as such judges dismiss the claims (2) The Virginia Department of Corrections and its prisons use the low amount of grievances to then claim that its activities are lawful e.t.c and prisoners have no complaints while all along its the prison officials stunts that have disappeared the very real complaints and grievances) so such a digitized mechanism for filing and processing prisons grievances will ensure transparency and accountability, which the Virginia prison official and their allies will certainly hate. What I have described are ideas which Del. Michael Jones, his General Assembly colleagues and The People of Virginia who expect and demand that no one is above law, especially the prison official can give thought to, because "IMPUNITY" isn't what a Virginia prisoner should learn from the prison official, yet that is what the Virginia prisoner is taught.

MARCH 29TH 2025 AT LAFAYETTE PARK WASHINGTON, D.C AND NOVEMBER 4TH 2025 ELECTION DAY IN VIRGINIA BOTH ARE RELEVANT BUT NOT EQUALLY. By William Thorpe

Pictures are taken from the internet and are used for illustrative purposes only"
So, on March 29th, 2025 at Lafayette Park, Washington D.C. there will be a rally to shut down Virginia's KONCENTRATION KAMP RED ONION STATE PRISON. Then on November 4th, 2025 it's Virginia's Statewide Election day. As I've already stated in the title to this work, both dates are relevant, but not equally, for reasons I will show. Okay all that's wrong and backwards with The Commonwealth of Virginia are because of elections or how The People of Virginia vote. I don't have to remind anyone of the consequences of elections and voting, I might be in solitary confinement but I hear the grinding of teeth of our fellow humans out there in the so-called free world, with heart palpitations, blood pressure rises, neurosis aggravated or its onset due to the what domino falls next consequence of a vote cast or not this past November National elections. That pyscho-torture and its perdition of the complete removal, elimination and destruction of bearings and associations of personal and National reference points and moorings, if you are one of the newly jobless and your sleep is an insomnia of teeth grinding, caught up in that Chinese syndrome of the courageous dies once while the coward dies a million deaths, anticipating the loss of your job, your holistic well-being to that historic friend of "what's to be done", determination and uncertainty. Then for The People of Virginia, these past almost 4 years of The Youngkin and his Republican foot soldier regime might not have been the sort and level of the type of war being waged against The American People by the National Leadership, nonetheless and still though the Glenn Youngkin Republican rule in Virginia has also been a shock to the system, Yeah The Social Contract, the body politic. I mean the reality of Virginia prisoners setting themselves on fire, self-immolating !!! Because of the savagery and barbarity of Youngkin's view of what is the Virginia prisoner ! Who would have thought that Youngkin would work double time in resurrecting a discredited politics, a morally bankrupt supposition that since day one of its emergence the inevitability of Stephen Crane's 'Red Badge of Courage' was forged ? Yet that was what Youngkin dragged The People of Virginia back into. Then he affirmed what Virginia colloquially understood of Virginia Republicans which is they say one thing but do the opposite, because since day one of his assumption to the Governorship, Glenn Youngkin and his Attorney General Jason Miyares have worked like hell and tirelessly to repudiate and reject their, the Republican mantra of personal responsibility as concept of Virginia's imprisonment scheme. Because under the Democratic Governorship and Administration of Ralph Northam, a law, EARNED SENTENCE CREDITS, pursuing the personal responsibility concept was passed to incentivize prisoner behavior. So who do you think would be against that, well you guessed it Glenn Youngkin and his two-faced Virginia Republicans, who have drawn battle orders to wage war against it. So if you're a Virginian taxpayer who raves against welfare recipients, yet are silent against Youngkin and his Republican cabal who would rather keep Virginians imprisoned by demanding their bad behavior, because it's clear that they'd rather have the prisoner behaving poorly because of their aversion to laws incentivizing prisoner good behavior. Then you have to confront the fact, which is you vote against "welfare" by voting for Republicans, so you voted for Glenn Youngkin, Mr. Prisoner-Immolation himself, but then you in turn also voted for it in Mr. Prisoner-Immolation, Glenn Youngkin's views on what is the Virginia prisoner, because Glenn Youngkin's' and the Virginia Republicans view on criminal justice, the justice infrastructure, The Virginia Department of Corrections and its prison system, is that conniving, killing two birds with one stone, by deploying and exploiting the "welfare" statist-redistributive economic function to the Virginia prison official on its neo-feudalistic terms, then secondly weaponizing it as demographic control and a back door continuum of Virginia's archaic and historical chattel political-economy. In otherwards Virginia Republicans can't get away from their demented "supremacist" affliction. So with the upcoming MARCH 29th 2025 SHUT DOWN KONCENTRATION KAMP RED ONION STATE PRISON Rally at, Washington D.C's Lafayette Park, what we have is a specific type of speech with a narrow and limited ability. Everything we as humans and members of Society do is speech with a variety of intentions as such, Virginians of all tendencies should care that their collective intelligence is constantly assaulted with the supremacist machinations which on its face is nothing more than that idealistic quest for speculative hegemony, which is the state and value of the underpinning politics supporting the existence of for example the Koncentration Kamp Red Onion State Prison, which to quote the disgraced racist ex-Virginia governor George Allen, who on October 14th 2022 stated to Cardinalnews.org that Red Onion State Prison is his "monument "and it didn't end there it went on with " For [Governor] Allen and [Attorney General] Kilgore (the twin brother of House Majority Leader Terry Kilgore, R-Scott County), Red Onion and its counterpart, Wallens Ridge, aren't simply a necessary function of public safety, they're a source of jobs in a part of Virginia where jobs have been hard to come by"......"here were 400 permanent jobs for each prison". {excerpt Cardinalnews.org October 14,2022}.So what we have are Virginia Republicans saying their whispered delusions out loud, which is what has been passing as political leadership, that 'imprisonment and prison primarily serving as a job and employment function'. One doesn't have to be whatever to see the obvious corruption and conflict of interest if the application of "justice" and that speculative and shibboleth 'public safety' is a source of employment and not any type of employment, but specifically that of retailing money, in otherwards not making or creating it but merely being a means of introducing it into an economic environment. So when we speak of a RALLY as means of speech we have to seriously consider its practicality considering existing means and contemporary resources, because for example the average and typical Virginian will vote and speak out against their own particular and specific interest not because there is an absence of critical thinking or that what's in the best interest, hell the average Virginian has someone ensnared in Virginia's imprisonment scheme and is already quite familiar and intimate with its savagery and barbarity, but they are not encountering the speech exposure a, for example shut down Koncentration Kamp Red Onion State Prison rally embodies as such it isn't mainstream as it must for the potential voter to be comfortable with.

VIRGINIA POLITICIANS TURNED THE POSITION, DIRECTOR OF THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS INTO A DICTATORSHIP AS IF THEY HAD FORGOTTEN THAT "ABSOLUTE POWER CORRUPTS" By William Thorpe

By rayhel
The current Dictatorship, that is The Director of The Virginia Department of Corrections, Chadwick Dotson has for a majority of his Professional life (i.e a Wise County Circuit Court Judge, Chair of The Virginia Parole Board, to name a few) been in positions of subjective authority where oversight and its accountability dynamic was merely speculative. In other words Chadwick Dotson has for a quantitative amount of his life been under the assumption that he was beyond reproach, that his conclusions and judgements were sound and in his and his obligations interest. Not that he is unique in that regard considering that as humans we all to a degree appreciate our conclusions and judgements to be just that, in that proverbial "best interest", but for the majority of people and The Virginian in particular, (because this work focuses on Virginia) we are constantly reminded by the immediacy of scrutiny by our Social Contract terms, that our subjectivity must be constantly tempered and assessed with all of this being done or acted out under a variety of scenarios, circumstances and conditions. I'm saying all of this to characterize those germane distinctions with for example a Chadwick Dotson whose life existence is relatively unquestioned to that of the typical and average Virginian. But as soon as our human condition developed and structured, what is the Social Contract, which then demanded and required that its terms become responsibilities and obligations that are articulated, in other words, its anthropomorphication and the official or bureaucrat or as it relates to this work, a Chadwick Dotson was made with the distinction that this new human existence is without the typical and average subjectivity of a regular human meaning the Chadwick Dotson emergence isn't and wouldn't be subject to the immediate scrutiny of The Social Contract. Being all things what they typically are, the idea of a new type of human whose judgements and assessments would be taken and valued on its face fell into that consequential category of "the road to hell is paved with good intentions", because that has been its empirical reality or to use Chadwick Dotson's lingua franca, "evidence based", because, and this is where we find the inherent corruption of that anthropomorphication of "terms "of The Social Contract, or as it relates to this work the de jure Dictatorship of the position, Director of The Virginia Department of Corrections by Virginia Politicians.

Look people, I'm a prisoner who has been and is under the jurisdiction of the Commonwealth of Virginia pretty much all of my life, since the age of 20 and I'm now 65, my nickname is SPORTY BLACK.I have experienced and been subjected to Virginia's idea of imprisonment in all its forms, from what is termed General Population to Solitary Confinement to my current state of exile to the Texas prison system, where I'm still held in solitary confinement. As such all that I say about Virginia is based on the intimacy of my knowledge and in extension grasp of our human condition. So with this stated, let me get into it with this unequivocal declaration, which I've stated in previous works: The Virginia Department of Corrections is inherently corrupt and this doesn't necessarily mean that its human elements administering its existence are intrinsically corrupt but what I'm saying and by the way, (this isn't unique to The Department), is the existing and current terms of The Department's formulations or its idea and understanding of itself as "agency" is corrupt, because of the idealistic nature of its "accountability". I started with explaining, what is Chadwick Dotson in the role of Director of The Department and how Virginia legislators made legal that historically well understood corruption of absolute power corrupts by codifying the de jure Dictatorship of the Director of The Virginia Department of Corrections at Virginia Code Title 53.1 at 53.1-10 and regardless of reason have enabled in the continuation of the corrupting of The Department. The presumption of authority and power is it will be exercised, applied and utilized necessarily. Consequently the emergence and existence of power anticipates accountability, a process that is equal to its objective. So those Virginia politicians who made the Director of The Virginia Department of Corrections an absolute position should have understood the historical inherency of corruption and in particular the corruption of The Directorate of The Virginia Department of Corrections and what they had done and subsequently established equivalent process of accountability, but they didn't. Now let me say this, notwithstanding the responsibility of those Virginia politicians, primacy is with The People of Virginia to understand that whatever good intentions their politicians and legislators had, without equal measure of accountability, it was practically a transit to hell and perdition and here is also proof of point of the inherency of corruption. The exercise of the required process of accountability is also dependent on acceptance of its duty, which would then imply duty of citizenship or that colloquial and provincial, civic duty, which by the way is understood amorphously as such corruptly. So in the face of all of this confusion what The Social Contract is left with is a Chadwick Dotson to his own suppositions, biases and prejudices, to do as he considers fit and we see its expressions with, Chadwick Dotson telling us that, Virginia prisoners who are self-immolating, setting themselves on fire, isn't nothing because they weren't consumed in the flames, which is his response to the timid and feeble process of accountability that came his way. So we again see this idealistic exercise of judgement by the Directorate of The Virginia Department of Corrections over the practicality of allowing the Virginia prisoner access to phones on electronic Tablets which prison systems four fold, even five fold the size of Virginia's system, dealing with the same issues and concerns have seen fit to make accessible to their prisoner population, yet Chadwick Dotson hems and haws which leaves us with one conclusion, he values the mayhem.

THE FAILINGS OF CORPORATE MEDIA BROUGHT US TO THIS POINT, WHERE VIRGINIA PRISONERS HAVE TO SET THEMSELVES ON FIRE TO SAY WITH THEIR BURNING FLESH THAT CHADWICK DOTSON'S VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS IS SAVAGE AND BARBARIC By William Thorpe

When Virginia politician's aka legislators decided that what The People of Virginia needed was a Dictator running The Commonwealths Prison system, impunity and its battalions were given their battle orders. In other words the dragon's teeth of savagery and barbarity were sown and forever we have witnessed its spawn. This work isn't intended to give another listing of the depravity done under cover of law by the Virginia prison official, but what I intend on doing is remind The Virginia people that we can't have it both ways. We can't on the one hand indulge in the demented deviance of a Donald Trump in his 34 felony count convicted self haranguing us about criminality when we can count on one hand the number of people who have single handedly destroyed the very utility of law as he has with our permission. While we peculiarly struggle to reclaim the ensuing , resulting emasculation by scapegoating the imprisoned Virginian because as craven a deed, hasn't our universal human history taught that its always convenient and cathartic to take advantage of the deprived right?.With that then accomplishing a complicity of the worst kind, that of mocking and betraying the very mythology of our existence. What this period in our history demands is individuals understanding that breaking law in the treatment of the Virginia prisoner is also a violation and betrayal of trust and faith in The Social Contract.
