THE KONCENTRATION KAMP RED ONION STATE PRISON VERSUS THE PEOPLE OF VIRGINIA By William Thorpe

Come on man, who is surprised by the recent disclosure by THE APPEAL, that the what to do brain storming of The Virginia Department of Corrections concerning the recent self-immolation by human beings under its care as prisoners at The Koncentration Kamp Red Onion State Prison, couldn't get past the tired, archaic, same ole same ole, reactionary rut unoriginality of dabbling in the speculations of aversive moral hazard accentuation. So The Appeals' reporting educates us with revelations that Koncentration Kamp Red Onion State Prison apparatchiks or prison officials doing their what is to be done on prisoner self-immolation were focused on imposing fines, court processes and adjudication along with all sorts of bizarre speculations, for example self-immolation was means for a contact visit,(the obvious irony that setting oneself on fire is in deed suicidal simply escaped and eluded its proponent) all at the expense of the obvious stop treating Virginia prisoners barbarically and savagely. There is an old adage, if all you have is a hammer then everything is a nail. The Virginia prison official haplessly equates imprisonment with, barbarity, savagery, pain, cruelty and the dynamic of the lash on an enslaved's back, because that was its progenitor. The reality is the Virginia prison official hasn't been made to disprove it, that its reactionary, intellectual-liberal speculations and antebellum suppositions of its terms and administration of imprisonment are professionally legitimate and valid to the only point of view that matters, which is that of The People of Virginia. Okay, so what do we have, The Virginia Department of Corrections is the State largest agency with the largest budget, in other words, The People of Virginia invest more in the creation of conditions and circumstances that compel, impell and drive its imprisoned to self-immolate, than in the education, job training, health care, housing and development of positive infrastructure towards the realization of its Social Contract aspirations. What we have come to incontrovertibly realize and recognize is in all standards of measure The Virginia Department of Corrections is unaccountable, because it doesn't have to measurably prove and show anything. Its one and clear function is, a redistributor of wealth and tax payer money to locales and environments that play no role in the "creation" of money. The prison official serves and provides a retail function in Virginia's political-economy as such its only perspective is to see the Virginia prisoner as chattel, a source of provisions. Consequently the Virginia prisoner is dehumanized and the relationship with the Department is antagonistic. The Virginia prison official consistently is at war, in a state of conflict with the Virginia prisoner. Of course we are given the contradictory verbiage of maintaining order, but the maintenance of such order, its definitions and applications shouldn't be casually left to the purely and obvious economic self-interest based sophistry of the prison officials' self-assertions, particularly after the recent Supreme Court of The United States rulings on "The Chevron Doctrine", on the authority of unelected administrative officials, including prison officials. What this shows is the impunity, a lack of accountability, compromising what it means to be human in post antebellum Virginia and the dictatorial predilections of the prison official to abuse, savage and violate law. Nonetheless the Virginia prison official despite their antipathy must be reminded are still defined by the norms and standards of Virginia's Social Contract, its Law.

What Covid-19 Presents Within The Prison Setting Is Something More Fundamental & Basic By William Thorpe

Okay, good old Virginia exiled me to Texas so it took a few stops for the old pony express to drop off the April 5, 2020 Bacons Rebellion: Virginia Jails and Prisons Brace for Pandemic post by Anonymous.

The post adds nothing nor does it obfuscate. Because the question is not about governmental behavior during a circumstance, [pandemic] that imposes unlawful and illegal conditions on "lawfully" imprisoned persons. That question is already settled. The U.S. Constitution 8th amendment and its jurisprudence are clear, Government cannot subject prisoners to conditions that mortally impact life     yet every single aspect of prison pre-COVID-19 and post does and will, due to the lack of accountability.

Nor does COVID-19 present a novel question within state-organized violence of prison and it's administration despite its novel Corona designation. The issue at hand is simple:

• Under what circumstance are prisoners released
• Under what circumstance are prisoners treated with the same rationality of law that transformed them into prisoners,
• And under what circumstance will speculators and speculations on prison and prisoners set aside colloquial impulses and come to terms with the fact contradictions ignored mature into antagonisms of hypocrisies and delusions mocking the social contract and its politic-law underpining.

What COVID-19 presents and does within the prison setting is something more fundamental and basic       it exposes the irrationality of governments anticipations as prison officials who are no more experts on anything, despite their idealistic pronouncements conjured whole cloth, hocus pocus like, for example, designations like, "the criminal mind of the prisoner" shibboleth intended as expertise to justify their existence, when confronted with the fact that prison as a lawful and legal construct has no basis to maintain detention of prisoners who were not sent to prison to be harmed of killed whether extrajudicial or by Ribonucleic Acid elements. So the question is simple how does law address the condition of the human being transformed into prisoner by its dictates during an epochal emergence that considers nothing than its cataclysmic logic, as COVID-19 does?

Consider this: A prisoner having served 20 of a 30-year sentence for armed robbery and COVID-19 happens. So lawfully and within the social contract, there can only be one action and
response      release. Because there isn't a governmental action that guarantees that the lawfulness that resulted the detention will assure the prisoner and the community that he will remain uninfected and unimpacted by COVID-19. The Prisoner wasn't sent to prison to die and COVID-19's default action is killing. COVID-19 is a condition no law or social-contract can ask a human to its subject. Yet discussions of what is government to do during the COVID-19 Pandemic within the prison setting as the April 5. 2020 Virginia Jails and Prisons Brace for Pandemic post speculates are indulged in as if the prisoner is an unconditional property and possession of government and its organized violence and that is not so.

The COVID-19 Pandemic presents prisoners, families, allies, advocates and the taxpaying citizenry including victims of crime [because victims of crime should stand shoulder to shoulder with the advocacy that government, its prison officials are not up and above law and its politics] with the opportunity to unequivocally and unambiguously confront that governmental presumption of unconditional seizure and possession of the prisoner      when no such condition of absolute possession within the human condition exist and not even the politics of death and prison can distort it.

There is only one action for government during the COVID-19 Pandemic relative to the prisoner and prison and that is       release.

Prison Is Speech By The State and It's Organized Violence By William Thorpe

The colloquialism "The only thing prison provides is time and what the prisoner does with the time is solely his choice."

On the surface and superficially it sounds commonsensical making all the sense in the world because it fits the narrative of the national status quo and its pursuit of a supposed responsibility and its individual accountability. But upon scrutiny, we find it is just another gibberish and idealistic utterance in the employ of the controlling functions of the state and its national status quo. And why should we simply stop with prison being the only environment requiring the accountability of individual responsibility        Lets expand it to general life, beginning with the argument point from our political and religious reactionary brethren, the life begins at conception demagoguery and let's hold that construct of life responsible and accountable for itself independent of the mother and humor at its collapse in the objectivity of its anticipation. Which by the way as much as our reactionary brethren push for life at conception, the fact it is still based on the responsibility and accountability of the mother as an independent anticipation, in no uncertain terms mocks the responsibility and accountability supposition.

And it makes the same point, that as much as the controlling mechanism of the status quo expects a self-policing imperative with our buy into a superficial and speculative grasp of individual responsibility and accountability. The fact remains, prison provides more than time. Prison is speech by the state and it's organized violence. Prison as function of the state assumes responsibility and accountability for and of the imprisoned in dicta to provide.

Thus the responsibility and accountability of the state to the prisoner as it exercises it's organized violence speech of imprisonment should not be excused nor apologized away with the naive and delusional observation that the prisoner in and for theirself should have the presence of mind and ambition to experience the passage of the imprisonment time in a supposed manner when the very lack or bias of the supposed is what resulted the prisoners confinement to begin with.

The adage "the devil is in the details" isn't sophistry and society and its inherent relations cannot escape its scrutiny and consequences of those relations will compel such scrutiny regardless of whether we are intellectually-material enough or still indulging in the intellectual-liberalism of our subjectivity. Because even the sun bows down to reason as the practice of our brethren in 1789 reminded us and again we were taught from 1818-1828 that colloquial traditions and culture are just that mechanisms of the supposed, to be brushed aside as feeble articles of backwardness while new realizations in the employ of progress enable the emergence of a new culture and tradition which in the prison context is reform and holding state and it's organized violence responsible and accountable.

NPR's Michelle Martin, Accountability and the 4/16/18 South Carolina Incident

On 3/1/20 NPR's [National Public Radio] Michelle Martin allowed the whatever his name, Director of South Carolina's Department of Corrections to escape his accountability by continuing the mischaracterization of the 4/16/18 killing of 7 prisoners and 17 injured at South Carolina's Lee Correctional Institute as a simple matter of Gang activity.

Whether or not the immediate cause of the 4/16/18 violence was gang activity is besides the point. Had NPR's, Michelle Martin prepared for the 3/1/20 media event, which not only included the Director evading his accountability, but 3 hand-picked South Carolina, prisoners representing the purported reform of the South Carolina prison system. She would have held to account the irrelevant named Director for practices of South Carolina's Department of Corrections that not only are found to be unconstitutional hence illegal but on its face fostered the environment that enabled the death of 7 prisoners who were not sentenced to prison to die.

There is a specific reason why we typically find the prison systems of southern former Confederate Slaves holding states, especially those that scream the loudest of their Conservative values, of which South Carolina is one, violating the equality before the law underpinning of their social relations. Which is the extra-judicial existence of prison officials being above the law and the lack of accountability.

Gang activity isn't any more corrosive than the malfeasance of the prison official who having swore toe uphold the law behaves above it, and for NPR's Michelle Martin to interview the whatever his name, Director of South Carolina's prison system and not make this obvious point. Actually, ask who really is to blame for the death of those 7 prisoners during the 4/16/18 incident, is it the prisoners who killed fellow prisoners the Director of the prison system whose malfeasance fostered and enabled the killing of the journalist who failed to hold to account prison officials who have the legal and professional responsibility for the lives of prisoners.
