Re: US Prison Riot
Such shallow assumptions with you guys. These are images from the riot at the Attica Correctional Facility in Attica, New York, USA, during September 1971. Inmate population was 2,225 -- nearly double the facility's maximum capacity. Conditions at the prison were squalid. A thousand of the inmates seized control and took 33 staff as hostages to make clear just how barbaric conditions were. The activist inmates said they would gladly surrender if the State of New York would listen to their grievances. The state negotiated and recognized 28 of their 30 accusations as completely legitimate and promised reform. Then the governor ordered police and soldiers to attack the prison. This is all documented. Their shotguns, not the inmates, killed 10 hostages and 25 inmates, several of whom were not involved in the takeover.

Re: US Prison Riot
Looks like the aftermath of the Attica uprising of the early seventies http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attica_Prison_riot |
