California Prison Documentary: My Reaction

[@JoeyComperatore]

It would be really be interesting for you to do reactions on gang documentaries and California prisons documentaries, It would be great to hear your POV given your life experiences..keep up the great content Dubs 🔥

[@hayeshove1723]

man...the sad part is knowing that if dude just had a little more guidance and a better school, he would have turned out completely different. you can see the inner child in this dude, that just wanted to be encouraged and led to the right path...like us all..but instead was led down a life of anger and pain..that he unleashed on the world around him..like a lot of us also do...Im 31 years old and can still remember my kindergarten teachers name and impact on my life...Her name was Ms. Bowles. teachers are so underappreciated man. they seriously have the power to change lives and change history. respect to monica and all the teachers out there. we love and need you. pay teachers more. peace.

[@mattsweeny3957]

Teachers work 9 months a year. Weekends off. Pay Catholic School 🏫 teachers more. Public school teachers make over 100 K. Do well. Teachers are very ..important. mad Dog 🐕

[@hayeshove1723]

@@mattsweeny3957 over 100k???since when?? news to me. i mean the way you put it it sounds like a dream job LOL. I support private schools as well as charter too.

[@stuartday1330]

I don't know about a better school I think that's a cop out. I went to a shxtty inner city school and never went to jail and I've had a good life. Public school teachers are a problem because by definition they're mediocre at best when it comes to the subject they teach. They only have a degree in education and they are given a book showing what to teach in the subject they are not experts at. I knew more about American history, WWII and read more books than my teachers. I never had a teacher impress me and I usually loved to argue with them. Not about petty things but about the subject they taught especially if I knew they were wrong or teaching a low brow method of learning something or low brow interpretation of the events in history. School is what you make of it even if your school is made up of dirt floors, wooden desks, no computers and ten subject manuals you have to share with other students.

I Worked at Vacaville Medical Facility and I met some Convict's Who Stop taking Their Medications Deliberately So They Could Die . I Served Just under 39 years on a Life Sentence and I did Time in San Quentin in the 70s And Programed on Level 4 Folsom and eventually to CMF. And Yes Some Convict's Need a Program to be in a Positive environment and develope Some Kind of Hope

[@s805m8]

Man, this documentary brought tears to my eyes. I had to pause your video and went and watched the documentary first. My oldest bro came home from life sentence so this really hit home.

[@clostheman6562]

This is an awesome documentary as you can see on this REACTION video IT’S DEFINITELY NOT FOR EVERYONE…. I seen the 5 Block video before I came across this REACTION video and to those that are still in bondage of decrepit life it’s not of enjoyment to see that THE HOPE OF LIFE can still arise in many 🤙🏽🤙🏽

I find myself listening to these videos everyday. Been out for awhile but I just started listening for like the last Month. By far the Best Prison Videos. I only been to L.A County for a couple months and that was tough. In and out. I hope your videos will help people avoid going to Prison. Props to you for giving people a "TRUE MEANING" NO JOKE👍

[@Slapyomama88]

To see that guy so excited and happy to be in school, learning and not just learning whatever subjects but also learning how to learn, brought a smile to my face. So many guys caught up in the gang subculture could have done so much more with their lives had they just been placed in better environments. Great video Dubs.

[@Handmadebygas]

It’s not all about mindset. It’s also about circumstance and opportunities and if you’re in a bad place, those are opportunities are hard to come by no matter how hard you can try.

[@native7876]

do some reactions to the old lockup series great video man

[@riffraffchoppers]

I like how you point Out who cares if he’s a drop out or not cause the point is about bettering yourself. 👏🏻👏🏻

[@hectoribarra1245]

It's disheartening that our upbringing & life circumstances can affect the rest of our lives & often times we have no control over things like where we were born & raised, who our parents are, & what our social status is. It is great to see the man in the video have hope, change his perspective, & turn his life around through education. Hopefully he is able to maintain this outlook. & Respect to the brave teacher & others like her, they can't be paid enough. With that said, US prisons need major reformation. For profit private prisons should be outlawed. My question is: In a ideal world, if the government provided all resources & programs possible. How can the US prison system truly offer an opportunity to inmates to change & reinvent themselves as human beings if prisons are run by ethnic, corrupt, backstabbing, for-profit, criminal organizations? Yes, the so called 'big 4'.

Thanks for dropping a good one on Sunday Dubs! 💥💥

[@mikemike0000]

On my way to go watch the whole thing now. Thanks for the heads up, and as always, thank you for your content, bro! 🫡

[@WHITTIERCATGIRL]

What documentary is it?

[@GypsyTX]

Thank you for introducing this to people who wouldn’t have seen it. I’m a former CO, and I wish my state and every state for that matter had a program like this. For the first time in his life Mr. Flores found a purpose. For the first time in his life Mr. Flores knows hope. And I believe for the first time in his life Mr. Flores is truly happy. He said he dreams big, and I believe that. I hope he makes it to Harvard Law, and focuses his attention on prison reform. As a correction’s officer, I treated everybody firmly, fairly, and consistently. I didn’t judge. A majority of the inmates I sat on weren’t bad guys, they just got caught. I wasn’t above the law in my youth, I just didn’t get caught. Thank you for your channel. It gives perspective to a system that can do so much better than it does. I’m sorry your life took the turns that it did, but I’m proud that you’ve turned your darkness into light for others. God bless from Houston Texas!

[@j.metzli8187]

Love this post Dubbs. I was part of a model ward program in Ventura YA back in the 90s. It helped changed my life. I knocked two years of college their got my GED. It was still YA. But it was guys with something to lose and who thought twice about the bullshit. People learned how to communicate better so they didn’t have to fight (as much and if they did it was handled honorably in the blinds.

[@freesky6208]

Dubbs I really appreciate the intent of you're channel over all to take you're experience inside and try to connect with the younger generation out there and let them know, you don't want to be in there. I believe you genuinely care about speaking insight for all who care to listen. Light be with you bro, stay strong in this path.

Improvise, adapt, and overcome. I wasn't a marine but, I know their slogan. I've done time in the Juvenile, State, and Federal system. Going school, lifting weights, drawing, watching and listening, having no opinion on inside issues and being a rule keeper - allowed me to make it out without getting in a wreck and alive. Much respect. Really like hearing your stories. I'm 62 now and I'm glad I didn't have to go through shit your generation went through a lot has changed. Keep up the good work.✌🏽👊🏽

[@ngolinyirenda6421]

What you said in the beginning was right on the money. When i was fighting my cass in LA County, I ran classes in the eductsikn program and got asked to talk to youngsters facing life. The mkst imlortant question - So when will you kill yourself !? This was aimed at getting dides oit of that mythological state of mind that they were gokmg to go inside and live like Billy the Kid or Pancho Villa for the next 40 years. No. Your mind won't take it and you certainly have the odds against you. How much time can you do !? As much as you can.

[@chrissimmonds4898]

Good for these guys. Attempting to make positive changes in some of the worst situations.

[@mendotafinest2714]

You’re right bout the teachers quitting often, I’ve seen that a lot. Or after a period they’re apathetic towards inmates/convicts. I was a GED mentor for a teacher in old Corcoran who was a STRONG lady. She dealt with ALOT Homie and even said “ I’ve been on the mainline for 15 years, don’t try to play me”, hahaha. She was kind & fair. The convicts took it upon ourselves to make sure nobody did TOO much. Can’t stop shit frm hitting the fan but cud stop bullshit from falling on her. Feel me

[@robertamador1614]

[@steverobertson8515]

Funny that I watched this program earlier today and found it very interesting. I felt for this guy. It made me question my own way of thinking about prisoners. Deep stuff for sure.

[@P.M.O.S.69]

Hey Dubs...good video. I enjoy your channels and have learned from them. So at 9:16, Mr Flores is talking about "enhancements" added to his sentence. I think that's seems unfair, like the system is stacked against the person convicted. It also seems that overall, the CDC has more interest in maintaining its population rather than rehabilitation. But I assume you believe that a right or conservative leaning state government would somehow be better. Please explain that to us. The teacher, Miss Monica at 17:16 is the example of someone who cares and that in my opinion is what we need more of. I do also believe that your videos, overall are a positive influence. Keep up the good work 👍🏼

Dubs... 🤗🏆🏆🏆💙💪 Thank you for sharing this. I may be naive. But, that was one of the saddest, most heartbreaking things I've ever seen. That man, like you said, regardless of appearance, seemed to be a very smart, articulate, very self aware and contemplative person. If.... IF... He had a person or persons, when he was younger to help guide him and ENCOURAGE him... Dear Lord. 🛐 He could have been anything. Maybe come up with a cure for cancer!! I HOPE AND PRAY🙏 that he will get parole and never spend his life in prison. What a waste for him AND society. I'm left extremely frustrated and feeling so sad with tears running down my face. Thank you again for sharing this. I'm going to forward to many others. 🥺💔

Even before you said it, I was already judging by his tattoos on his face. Then I started to listen to him. How he was taking advantage of educating himself. I'm guessing the reason to call him by names to humanize him/them. That have tattoo removal it might help if he gets out.

Just would like to say that this man was a fool at one time, straight out knucklehead with the business. The last time I seen this vato was in the mid 90’s in LA county jail going through courtline in the blue and white jumpsuit. Also known as the clown suit, no disrespect but thats what they called the suit, (Gang Module blues) or state module blues but for Hoser it was the Gang Module suit. I was tripping out when I seen his face on you tube. Great story and very blessed to see this homie turn his life around. It can be done, I gave the system 16 years of my life, ex gang member and ex drug addict. Now I’m a Union Local 300 Journeyman Laborer. I pay rent, I pay bills, I’ve been clean from drugs and alcohol for 15 years. So it can be done. But Hoser, I hope he gets out I hope he gets a date. I’m around a lot of ex-lifers who are doing good and are very successful out here. Hard working men that think, act, and respond different. Truly changed men that that where in the mix at one time. And with that said And I repeat I hope ad pray he gets a date.
