WE BLAME VIRGINIA GOVERNOR GLENN YOUNGKIN, WE INDICT HIM By William Thorpe

Let me first begin with here we go again, The Virginia Department Of Corrections at its Red Onion State Prison Koncentration Kamp is currently in the News for another episode of heinous events under the administration and governance of Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin, specifically a number of prisoners held in oppressive and intolerable solitary confinement are setting themselves on fire, a la the self-immolation of a Buddhist monk at the evils of United States activities during the Vietnam war. Others have spoken on these current prisoner self-immolation events at Red Onion State Prison Koncentration Kamp, within the greater context of the depravity of its administration and governance, what I want to however do is expand on #exposethebarbarity. So let me begin with Virginia law at, Virginia Code Section 8.01-2 (6) states: Person under a disability shall include (a) a person convicted of a felony during the period he is confined. Which in plain speak, is The Commonwealth of Virginia as collective of the will of its people exercising their will by imprisoning its members presumes certain obligations. Now what we again encounter with this is, as the typical proclivities of law is the disability of the Virginia prisoner is adjudicative. What I mean is this those prisoners held in solitary confinement at Red Onion State Prison Koncentration Kamp according to the obligations and responsibilities of The People of The Commonwealth of Virginia shouldn't be subjected to a self-immolation inducing, savagery and barbarity, because the Virginia prisoner during the period of confinement and imprisonment is a person with a disability so what privilege of authority permits those with responsibility to compel the imprisoned to set themselves on fire, which is what Governor Glenn Youngkin as Chief Executive of Virginia is presiding over and what I'm saying isn't about the assumed legalese of "respondeat superior". Now let's bring on this other aspect, in 2023 Governor Glenn Youngkin vetoed parts of a law that was intended to rein in check the above the law deviance of the Virginia prison official that revealed itself in the savagery and barbarity of the use of solitary confinement. The law Virginia Code 53.1-39.2 (Restorative Housing, Restriction on use) was in itself a timid and feeble effort by The Virginia General Assembly at reforming the use of a type of detention which the Supreme Court of The United States had declared as being (and I paraphrase) asocial, serving no social good and drove its victim prisoners insane, which the self-immolating Red Onion State Prison Koncentration Kamp prisoner in 2024 underscores and is case study. Now the conventional response to the passage and subsequent veto of the positive parts of Virginia Code 53.1-39.2 was, well it's a start and the work and struggle continues to accomplish reining in the use of solitary confinement by the Virginia prison official. Now that mindset has been bane in so many more ways than one. Because what is consistently overlooked is the prisoner or in this case the Virginia prisoner is a fact of and only exist because of LAW, the same law the prison official willy nilly, violates and breaks with the deviance of the supposition of "above the law". Governor Glenn Youngkin has already revealed his effrontery and abject poverty towards the compliance of law and it's underpinning faith in the Social Contract, when he spit in all the face of Virginians victimized by it, when he embraced the 34 count felony convicted and sex assault adjudged currently president-elect Donald Trump. Yes this work is polemic against the double speak of Due Process.
