Comments on: Domestic torture the supermax way http://psychoanalystsopposewar.org/blog/2008/03/24/domestic-torture-the-supermax-way/ Thoughts by Stephen Soldz on war, peace, politics, psychoanalysis, and research methods Wed, 08 Oct 2008 06:54:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Joe http://psychoanalystsopposewar.org/blog/2008/03/24/domestic-torture-the-supermax-way/#comment-172521 Joe Tue, 27 May 2008 18:17:22 +0000 http://psychoanalystsopposewar.org/blog/2008/03/24/domestic-torture-the-supermax-way/#comment-172521 I find it interesting that a Doctor, indeed, a Psychologist- would publish an article on the conditions in a prison based on the uncorroborated word of a convicted gang murderer, and report it as fact. Does the doc believe all the other uncorroborated crazy crap dumped on his door by his other patients? In this article Berry says he got two visits a month at Tamms. In yesterday's Chicago Sun Times he said he got 3 visits a year. I guess the Sun Times reporter believed it too. Lay off the Kool Aid, dude.

We urge the psychologists who oppose torture programs at Guantanamo Bay and other places to speak out about supermax prisons in the U.S.? This is an important role for psychologists, and something that would play a pivotal role in work to achieve humane conditions for Tamms C-MAX prisoners, and others in permanent isolation. Yes!

Its remarkable that so many men have been buried alive, and so few people know that this is happening. There are a lot of events happening around the tenth anniversary of Tamms' opening, put on by the Tamms Year Ten Campaign.
