The Devil's Bargain: How Politics Manufactures Criminals
Working as a correctional officer at Kirkland Correctional Institution changed everything I believed about crime and society. Surrounded by murderers, rapists, and violent criminals who looked just like me, I noticed three disturbing patterns: most inmates came from fatherless homes, lacked education, and lived in generational poverty. These weren't coincidences-they were manufactured outcomes of systemic failure. The prison population explosion tells a devastating story. South Carolina went from three prisons in 1980 to thirty by 2000. Problems barely existing in 1963 became epidemics afterward: AIDS devastated communities, mass incarceration separated families, and homicide became the leading cause of death for Black men between 15-34. Working in prison developed my ability to recognize evil in real time-my physical survival literally depended on it. What's most troubling isn't just the individual tragedies but the pattern. Nearly every major urban ghetto, open-air drug market, deteriorating housing project, chronically failing school, and abortion clinic exists under long-term Democratic political control. These aren't random accidents or unfortunate byproducts-they're features of a system designed to create dependency. Like Quasimodo being taught by Judge Frollo to hate himself, generations have been conditioned to view themselves through a lens of perpetual victimhood rather than personal agency.
