Several Florida jails and prisons refuse to evacuate ahead of Hurricane Milton
Despite being in evacuation zones, correctional facilities will keep thousands of residents on site
Several Florida jails and prisons are refusing to evacuate their residents ahead of Hurricane Milton despite being in the evacuation zone of the storm.
Manatee county jail, which has 1,200 incarcerated people and is located on the south-east side of Tampa Bay, in the path of the hurricane that was roaring towards it across the Gulf of Mexico on Wednesday, will not be evacuating, a representative of the jail told Newsweek on Tuesday.
The jail falls within the Zone A evacuation area, the outlet further reported. Those in Zone A could face a storm surge of up to 11ft and are supposed to be evacuated first, according to the Manatee county evacuation guide.
“We do not issue evacuation orders lightly,” said the Manatee county public safety director, Jodie Fiske, Newsweek reported. “Milton is anticipated to cause more storm surge than [Hurricane] Helene. So, if you stayed during Helene and got lucky, I would not press my luck with this particular system.”

In sane countries, prisons are rehabilitative, not punitive.
In other countries, schizophrenia causes positive imagery/voices instead of menacing figures and voices.

Yes, no need to repeat your comment, everyone can see it.
He meant "what do you mean?"
Believe it or not, they're right. But it has nothing to do with how those countries treat their people considering they found that people from India and African countries were the ones who felt that the voices were positive.

In the American south you may be switched to execution by act of oil industry
What do you mean?
The severity of this storm is likely due in part to climate change brought about by the oil industry.
Makes sense. I was wondering if there was another layer I was missing
