Torture: America's Brutal Prisons You know all the terrible things I always post about the US prison system (and Joe Arpaio)? Now you can watch some of those things on video with this British doc. Definitely due to language, nudity, extreme violence, and Joe Arpaio.

Walking the Line "WALKING THE LINE offers a harrowing view of the chaos along the U.S.-Mexico border through private citizens who are taking the law into their own hands. Following a growing movement of anti-immigrant vigilantes, some clad in fatigues and armed with semi-automatic weapons, the documentary provides a scathing critique of our failed border policy." Focused primarily in Arizona. Despite the description it also shows Mexican points of view, as well as folks who help immigrants, and (briefly) touches on Amerindian points of view. Paints the "anti-immigrant vigilantes" in a pretty negative light (albeit through their own words) so know that going in. Some adult language and (very brief) shots of dead bodies, but it's not excessive. Pretty sure it's okay for work, especially if you have a job where you can watch internet documentaries on the clock. The Warning "In The Warning, veteran FRONTLINE producer Michael Kirk unearths the hidden history of the nation's worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. At the center of it all he finds Brooksley Born, who speaks for the first time on television about her failed campaign to regulate the secretive, multitrillion-dollar derivatives market whose crash helped trigger the financial collapse in the fall of 2008 [...] Now, with many of the same men who shut down Born in key positions in the Obama administration, The Warning reveals the complicated politics that led to this crisis and what it may say about current attempts to prevent the next one." Video does what it says on the package. Off the Chain "At the turn of the century, the pit-bull was America's favorite pet. How did it go from Pete in the Little Rascals to public enemy number 1. This documentary is an undercover look at the world of dog fighting and how its damaged the breed. Its not bad dogs, its bad owners." Don't watch this if you like dogs. due to graphic violence, language, and footage of do-it-yourself veterinarians.
