Rules (interactive)

That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Supermax - be a serious threat to society
Regular - be a poor criminal
Club fed - be a rich criminal
Gotta kill a few people. Then you got to get sent to a slam, where they tell you you'll never see daylight again. You dig up a doctor, and you pay him 20 menthol Kools to do a surgical shine job on your eyeballs.
God I wish we got more Riddick games to go with the movies
Chronicles of Riddick is in my top 10 movies easily
Im pretty sure that was in Pitch Black. I was disappointed with the sequel but the Xbox/PC game where he is in Butcher bay was great. It sucks it got delisted.
It was in both, in the sequel it's not the exact quote though, Jack is complaining at him about not being able to find a doctor to do it.
Ah thanks for the correction like I said I didn't watch the second as much
And then you live your life one quarter mile at a time...
The only real super Max is in Colorado. It’s completely locked down facility. No visitors allowed, video conference links are the only thing they provide for their inmates.I think it’s 23 hour lockdown one hour outside a day in a cage separated from everyone else. The only way to get a ticket to Supermex is to be a terrorist or an organized crime member that is too dangerous to allow regular contactwith other inmates.
any regular prison, you can go to by committing murder, or assault, something violent and serious.
Club fed is just a low security federal penitentiary. Some of them look more like college dormitories surrounding central courtyards. A lot of free time lotta classes lots ofservices. You have to do white collar crime typically to get one of those.
What do you define as a "real" supermax? There are definitely some prisons that label themselves as supermax outside of ADX in Colorado. Pelican Bay comes to mind. That's where they put people who are criminally insane or violent, and it's 100% solitary confinement cells. Not sure about the visitation thing though.
pelican Bay is a state prison. The only full hundred percent super Max prison is Florence Colorado ADX. there’s a dozen other State prisons that offer a super Max cell block. But none are as secure as Florence. Additionally on a federallevel I think it’s only Florence. I’m not sure of any other federal facilities that contain any super Max blocks. additionally, solitary does not equal super max.
I see. After looking into it more, I'm surprised to see the term getting applied very generously to a variety of different prison conditions. I would have imagined they'd have a set of standards that dictate this sort of thing.
Anyway, cheers and thanks for the info.
Isn't Ft. Leavenworth a supermax?
Ft Leavenworth is the military's prison. They don't send civilians there.
Yes, one of my former soldiers is there for breaking into an ATM in Korea. The dumb fuck has an MP on either side of him from the time the ROK government turned him over to us until the day he was convicted at Courts Marahal and assigned the rank of prisoner.
That is astonishingly stupid.
Right? I told him so every time I saw him.
There is only one supermax in the US
