"This is not the final routine, and definitely not a punishment! just a teaser."Why don't some of my coworkers get this?

I want them to do Daft Punk's All Over the World and Feist 1,2,3,4...If you go to the dude's account he also has them doing Queen's Radio Ga Ga and some stuff from Sister Act.

here's the whole series of these. believe it or not, this was posted to u2b by the director of the prison himself; thriller was done in response to a u2b comment, so go try your luck otaku!vice met up with him recently. (here's his take on penology.)
how long before folks are wearing those t-shirts?

I wanna go to jail.otc, July 21, 2007 5:43:30 AM CEST
By far one of the most surreal things I've ever seen. The inmate in the pink tank top: priceless.ai, July 21, 2007 2:19:29 PM CEST
"When not sitting around waiting, the prisoners do mass exercises in the yard. All 900 of them. Garcia had them do the “YMCA” for my amusement. It was incredibly depressing. He posted the video on YouTube under his real name.""This is Byron F. Garcia with his bitches. The CPDRC gang tattoo is his name—no joke. All of these women have the official “Byron F. Garcia” insignia, which consists of a sword as the scales of justice and a red rose with thorns. Leo, the mayor de mayoris and ex-cop, has the same tattoo on his chest. Garcia runs the jail like his personal S&M dungeon, and he doesn’t care if you know it. Why should he? His sister is governor and his dad is a senator. You can’t touch him."
yes really cool

<sarcasm>Omg, making prisoners act out Michael Jackson videos on a massive scale is SO cliche. I mean, what a blantant rip-off of John Landis' video. And to think this prison warden calls himself a director...</sarcasm>
