I get the feeling that drinking yourself nearly to death every night was the only way to deal with the crushing horror of your existance in those days. Children in mines and daily worker demise. Strike breakers and Pinkertons. gently caress that.

I'd love a jail break. That would be something actually punishable regardless of a sympathetic jury!

Let's be honest, any jailbreak this group tried to stage would be the comically incompetent one you could imagine. Like "we get a video tape of a guard playing yakkity sax on his phone because this poo poo is just too surreal"

To be fair, if they were rebelling for the rights of anything but Republican voting white men to do whatever the gently caress they want, I'd be arguing that they did no wrong.

Their method was nothing but white men doing whatever the gently caress they wanted, like defiling Native American artefacts. It’s like “Hitler would be a swell dude if he didn’t commit genocide and invade other countries and also was better at painting”. At that point he’s not Hitler.
