I'm actually kind of surprised that one of the reasons for uniforms in prisons wasn't mentioned, profit. Private prisons and even government holding facilities are responsible for clothing, feeding, and maintaining prisoners for long periods of time. If they allow prisoners to wear their own clothes, laundry expenses go up. If you make all prisoners wear the same clothing, you can buy from the same manufacturer, get bulk deals, and laundry is quick and "efficient" since every piece of clothing is the same. Some companies who own private prisons even have prisoners make prison uniforms and can save money that way. Uniforms, like everything else in the prison system, is a means of cost saving and profit boosting depending on the facility you are at

[@kevray]

Of course it’s always about the money

It’s also to prevent stand over tactics and violence, I’ve heard stories where prison bullies will threaten other inmates for their clothes and shoes, it’s also easier to modify their own outfits to smuggle in drugs and other contraband.

That's similar as to why my country maintains a prison uniform. it prevents people from being targeted based on clothing. Another reason is that textiles used to be a major blue collar employer in my country, Both employers and prison reforms groups lobbied the government to have Prison uniforms produced within the prison system allowing inmates to learn job skills they needed on the outside. So various state governments spent a lot of money installing textile mills in certain prisons.

I know that some are in there for unjust reasons, but for the most part if your in prison, you’re in there for a reason. Idgaf if it humiliates you

[@nobilisvaga5267]

A guy I know made a shock collar type GPS system, similar to the house arrest GPS. If tampered with it ejects the GPS into the leg in such a way that makes it difficult to remove. So that if they escape they will be forced to seek out medical attention all while being tracked down.

At my facility they can purchase 16" personal TV's for their cells, radios, they have tablets now for video calls, Xboxes, a full library, free education, they can buy 100 dollars of commissary a week (which includes things like shredded chicken, bread, candy, pop, bagged sardines, chilli, and numerous other food items), they have a weight pile, plus their is a gymnasium which also has a workout area and full basketball court, a outdoor basketball and hand ball courts, a soft ball field, and other amenities.

Jumper colors are not about humiliation it’s for quick identification for safety and security of the facility and staff. The colors are levels based on a risk assessment in intake. Ours is called classification

2:13 Had the word "Robot" even been coined at that time? It first appeared in a science fiction story which I thought was written much later. What did the prison's governor actually say?

I’m in Illinois. When I was arrested, I was given a plain white tshirt, black and white striped pants, and a black and white striped shirt. When I went to court, I wore a black and white striped jumpsuit and was shackled at the wrists and ankles.

[@julianhernandez9376]

In my opinion, I dont really see anything wrong with the stripe uniform. Everyone has to wear a uniform or follow a certain dress code everyday 🤷🏾‍♂️ I'm mean what can a shirt really do to you other than have "I'm an idiot" written on them

they also wore black and white stripes because the stripes symbolized the horizontal jail bars in comparison to the vertical bars in jail so it gives them a sense that they can't get out

[@JamesChapel-w3p]

6:46 - surely the prisoners should especially be made to wear clothing that makes them stand out when they are being moved outside of the prison.

I personally believe that high risk prisoners such as murders should wear stripes it would be a escape deterrent it would also make it easier to spot a violent prisoner amongst crowds

[@LITTLE1994]

I remember older cartoons such as the original Powerpuff Girls, had prisoners with the stripes. Now, it's nostalgia.

For those who doesn’t exactly know why they are stripes in black and white it’s basically if you wanna have a restart or you want to stay evil.
