Stolen from WineGuy and NBC4.com

1 Of Every 136 Americans Now Behind Bars

1,000 Inmates Added To Prison Rolls Weekly

WASHINGTON -- Prisons and jails added more than 1,000 inmates each week for a year, putting almost 2.2 million people, or one in every 136 U.S. residents, behind bars by last summer.

THIS MEANS THAT ALMOST 1% OF THE U.S. POPULATION IS BEHIND BARS.

Ok well .7%

What is our world coming to?


P.S. If I stole this from WineGuy and NBC4 does that mean I need to be behind bars?
