Yeah, I think some people are compounding their hate for DOC and disdain for overly aggressive Rent-A-Cops, but these guys strike me as the type to be assholes regardless of what they’re “guarding”. They just happened to be the ones hired and assigned for this particular building.

I doubt the crew of almost exclusively African American guards really give a fuck about the DOC itself.

Yup. It's a shit job to take but on a certain level I get it. Still wrong and fuck them but I get it.

They’re almost certainly volunteers from the Sons of Confederate veterans. I don’t think Rent-a-Cops are usually armed.

I just know a few years ago they were asking for volunteers out of the Sons group. Maybe they’ve run out of volunteers.

You realize what some of the slave owning confederates did with their slaves, right?
