[QUOTE="Star*, post: 307894, member: 4964"] Three Shadows - It's been a while - mmm maybe 20 years since I've seen an honest to gosh chain gang in the black and white striped jump suits with the leg irons working with hand tools along a farm road in the hot FL sun. It could be a thing of the past or it could be that they still exist and we never see them this far North (perhaps Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana). My xBIL was part of it. We drove by and there was three men on horseback - two with guns, and along with about thirty men my XBIL - leg irons and all. It was awful. We drove by and my x threw some cigarettes in the bushes for his brother to get later. I felt like a criminal just being in the car. It was something I'll never forget - When I saw these boys this morning it made me wonder about their Mothers and I just thought "I wonder how hard their Moms tried to help them stay out of trouble before they finally threw up their hands and just said "You are on your own."
