How to survive in prison? Violence in prison – is it normal?

Actually, there are the other, no less severe factors in prison which may break the human health. However, if you are properly prepared mentally, you lower your risk of repeated suffering from violence in prisons and other troubles.

In this article, we will focus on the laws of prison life. At the same time we will not deal with thieves romance, and give a damn about all the nuances of prison terms. We’ll briefly describe how to survive in the prison.

Terms of prison:

– Very often, the words of prison life do not accept those values which they have in the normal life. It is well known and this is often the subject of provocation beginners. For example, in tprison they did not “ask”- they are “interested”. In general, watch your words. If you are responding to someone’s accusation: “What? I did it ?!”, the first that all heard is you say “I did it”, and that what you  meant – no one will be interested. In prison it is not accepted to say “goodbye.” Also, in a prison cell you musn’t cuss out.

– In the prison concept you can not offend. This is a direct road to the violence.

– When you sit down to play cards, be sure to check that they play with “no interest.”

– Having one match you can get two, neatly splitting it along with the knife. If there is a boiler in theprison cell, it is possible to light from it.

– Behaviour in prison has its strict rules, otherwise it will be “chaos”, which is punishable with all the severity of prison laws. Take away something from people without a reason or beat them with no reason –  it is “chaos.” All problems should be resolved by prison concepts. The only exception is if you have been cussed out. In this case you have to answer, otherwise you will be lowered and for all you will be taken to a lower caste.

– In prison, your physical strength is not so much important as your moral standing.

– Orders in prison mean that you ask no one for nothing without extreme need, you do not boast, do not gossipabout the others, do not complain or make excuses.

– If you receive parcels from home do not forget to put a part to the common fund, typically at least 10-15% of the parcel.

– In the prison cell it isn’t done to handshake. Just say your name.

Violence in prison

Jailbirds of course are beaten, but not so often. The point here, of course, is not in humanity of jailers. They have deficit with this. One of the main qualities of thre prison staff – is laziness. Therefore, for the jailer to force himself to hit a prisone is almost to accomplish a feat. This requires a very serious reason.

The prisoners are beaten  in five cases:

1) with “educational” purposes, as a punishment for misconduct and the prevention of possible offenses;

2) in order to “fight against crime”, to obtain confessions in the criminal case or the information on the prison offenses;

3) at the request of any interested parties – the victim, for example;

4) because of the personal animosity;

5) of the “sadistic” motives.
