Do not watch if you have a kind heart.
Quite some years ago I worked in a prison. A Maximum Security Male Prison. As a female Officer, I had this crazy idea that I could make a difference.
It was a new prison. State of the Art. A wonder of technology.
Before the prison actually opened, we arrived at work and were greeted with the announcement that we were to be separated into two groups for training purposes. Half of us were to be Prison Officers and the other half would be prisoners.
And that day changed my life. I became a prisoner. For ONE DAY.

What a great video... I finally understand.
Thought provoking video.
This is disturbing viewing.
