$40,000 because you didn't teach them early on.

I did. It sounds like these kids of sent to some place in Jamaica where theyre taught to stop being druggie whores. There are rumors of beatings. What else? Did I miss something on cult-like mind control? What?

This is nothing new. I'm not seeing what so horrible. I'm sure lots of beatings take place in these evil secrete schools that repeatedly allow full access to new crews and interviews with students.

I love some of the reasons kids are sent there. "Dressing inapproppriately". Perhaps my not being a parent is affecting my persepctive here, but what in the everloving name of fuck could your kid be wearing that's so awful it requires sending him to a mind control camp that costs more than most cars?

And best of all, they have no contact with the outside world, and therefore only the rights the staff choses to give them.


Holy shit.

You know, never before have I ever felt the urge to park up a truck loaded with AK47's infront of a gorup of teenagers and calmly say "Let it all out."

I'd bet money that there is constant physical abuse in this... death camp of sorts. These poor kids are not unlike the Jews in Nazi concentration camps. Treated like animals and made to betray their brethren under threats of torture. Don't expect criticism of the program from parents who sent their children there; they were sick and demented enough to send them there in the first place.
"Right now we can tell you a report was filed by the family of a 12 year old boy yesterday afternoon alleging Mr. Michael Jackson of criminal activity. A search warrant has been filed and that search is currently taking place. Mr. Jackson has not been charged with any crime. We cannot specifically address the content of the police report as it is confidential information at the present time, however, we can confirm that Mr. Jackson forced the boy to listen to the Howard Stern show and watch the movie Private Parts over and over again."

Really, I've rarely felt an urge to actually really kill someone, but I'd be completely okay with burying that Jay Kay fucker tied up and facedown in an anthill.

These camps been reported in the news off and on for about the past ten years, and are quickly forgotten by them [news agencies]. Governments ain't going to bothered with them until several dozen kids at a time are killed in a very short timespan.
