this has been happening constantly and they decided to defund the police. cool.
I'm from st.louis in i had to move away because st.louis my dad a cirp in now he is a better guy in be im in Az
They just did it again, larger, on Easter evening. I live here. St Louis city gross incompetence on display for the whole world!
There was probably no demands because they disincentivized making demands. They could do this by making the process of voicing grievances so complicated and pointless, none of the inmates bother. Now the jail can play stupid and act like they didn’t know anything was wrong
So wtf are we doing about this? 3 riots? Something needs to change.. of Walmart can be open a court room can be too.
But why are they being violent is the question ❓❓
Free Rastew
Happened once again today, this is what happens when democrats are in charge. :-/
"They "Tired of Being Sick & Tired!"…Give Them Their Court Dates!"…
There are inmates in there who have been held for 1, sometimes 2 years, without trial.
This is shitty reporting.
wow.
Kind of mfs that work at prisons are the same kind that want to brutally hurt people as soon as they get a reason and some privacy
CNN: looks like a peaceful protest to me
Oop
Joe Biden freed everyone but American citizens.
Are we supposed to care about these idiot criminals? Hell no
We are still just stuck with things other people said that they are going to use to say that what we really here isn't what's being said either. Just keep repeating song lyrics and scripts folks. Thats all thats going on.
Im sorry but these "extremely dangerous criminals" didnt break out or take complete control like they did in Georgia but instead wanted simple demands
attica attica
Just the beginning ✊💀🤝💀🤝💀🔥
I'm just curious about what crimes these people committed? Like, if you kill or rape someone that's deserving of a serious sentence. But I wonder if some of them may have been in there for traffic violations or smoking pot? It's crazy how smoking a joint or running a stop light can get you years in prison
If they r complaining about the conditions they shouldn't commit crimes 🙄
They need better conditions.
After reading the story the inmates were right to do this. There are many people who were supposed to be released who are still held illegally there. That is kidnapping and that place should be sued and shut down. Also they violated the time frame to get a preliminary hearing they abuse the rights.
I wonder if they said hey Pharaoh we don't want to be oppressed by muslim brick makers anymore? I'll have to ask Sir. Strohm 'S.S.'? See what he thinks!
That town soft. Could not do that here. They would shot you here .
Hell it's no doubt prisoners have more than the public outside yet states keep building more prisons!
We should bring united Nations to America
The demand were wrote as Big as Day
What is the saying…twice is a coincidence, but a third time is indictive of a trend?
But wait you've been telling us that this is a "peaceful demonstration" for like a year now it's peaceful it's a "peaceful protest"
Is this an insurrection or a mostly peaceful protest? I get severely confused nowadays
Mostly peaceful
