didn't even know there was a warrant from a ticket i got 6 months ago. 2 days in county. they kept me for a day after the judge ordered my release. said I "slipped through the cracks"

for expired tags. stripped searched, kept in holding alone all night with nothing but a concrete slab to sleep on and a combined toilet / water fountain. they took my fingerprints, scanned my eyes, made me undress in front of them again, put me in a block, and made me wait. they didn't give me a phone account to call on, didn't give a fuck, and lost me in their system.

for expired license tags

I knew prison sucked, I've hated cops for longer than I can remember, but the cruelty first hand of this system will stick with me forever, and I was only there two days. nothing can communicate what prison is other than being there. it is just a torture facility, nothing else.

i only got out because of DSA comrades annoying them on outside, otherwise I would probably have been in there at least another day.

fuck 12

thats super fucked up, I'm really sorry that happened to you. Did you get pulled over specifically because of the expired tags? I've had to drive around with expired tags before and I was sooo nervous and careful about how I drove and would just think to myself, "only break one law at a time"

Jail sucks. Your comrades rock.
