  • V-sauce FTW :D

  • ouch

  • Speaking of prisoners nice shirt

  • only came here cause that guy looked like Soul Khan

  • cos america never gave up on slavery thay just changed the terms on the contract

  • although i agree with some comments that say America locks up people for stupid crimes. drug possession isn't one of those crimes.

    idk how each state handles criminals but i do know that in CA you only get 3 chances before a life sentence. so #1 could be when you are young and stupid but over 18. #2 could be serious. and you might get your life on track but since you now have 2 strikes if you get into any trouble you get life.

    which is seriously messed up.

  • why do the staff in l.d.p abraxas south mountain shave the kids bald

  • The staff in jail power trip

  • Get A Haircut Ya Hippie Lol

  • soul khans dad?

  • Thank you for the video.

  • cause they' cool like that

  • Fluffymole0913 I live in the UK and i dont really see that :/ if someone's annoying you , 1st talk they continue squash them like the bugs they are , no need for gangs and shit x)

  • Wheeezzyyy

    

  • Because The US is retarded and they lock up people for Non-violent charges, such as possession of marijuana

  • The American 'justice' system is set up against minorities and anyone without money. The harsh punishments for minor drug offenses (I'm mostly talking about marijuana) are unnecessary. While jails are called 'correctional facilities' but there is no rehabilitation. Think about it, if you're poor and need a roof over your head, three meals a day and all the man ass you can handle I can see why so many brothers become institutionalized.

  • the guy with the hat and white shirt is cute<3

  • At times America is loud and brutal. Two looove...Peace!!!

  • Wheezywaiterrrrrrrrrrrrr

  • Because the US is the most free country in the world, and allow others to make stupid choices. Like rape, robbery, sell drugs to kids, drink and drive. The US also sends people to prison instead of cutting off their hands and feet, or canning them.

  • @DrMMHMD You are right, but why at the end did you start talking to me directly as if I am American when I clearly said that I live in London?

  • Because, Some People are Stupid....

    Oh, you thought it was that simple it is... And so is the definition of ""institution""

  • Because they're trying to clean this world from mistakes.

  • There are 2.5 million prisoners sitting in prisons in america because their legs are tired

  • 2.5 million parenting fails

  • there are 2.5 prisoners in america cause shit happens

  • cause theirs no uncle phile judge

  • Because You Touch Yourself At Night

  • There are 2.5 million prisoners because they don't have anyone who almost loves them.

  • There are 2.5 million prisoners in America because we aren't so "free" here. And probably because pot isn't legal.

    There would be more people in prison if people like O.J. Simpson and Casey Anthony weren't allowed to walk. We also have A LOT of idiot thieves. Enforcing the death penalty much sooner would help too. And of course some states don't have the death penalty. Precisely why Charles Manson has been rotting in jail for over 30 years now.

  • Wen you are to free

  • barely political ftw, gz

  • great video my friend!  - Fuzzy Soul Tiger

  • Cause they has been naughty kittehs

  • because they didnt subscribe to duke powell. :D

  • Comment removed

  • All americans are jerks. Myself included.

  • Because they like to be online predators and look at everyone that comments on the DukePowell show then keeps them captivated, then rapes them :O

  • one hundred and forty-ninth!!!!!!:DDDDDDD

  • Crimes… those that don't regret making in the future= answer

  • Because they committed a crime.

  • because those 2.5 million are smart, prisons give you food, and a place to stay for FREE ..why wouldnt you wanna end up there ?

  • Hey Duke how come you didn't came to that big Youtube thing in Tokyo?

  • Here in Texas we jail anybody the bible tells us to. I mean what? 2.5m? You crazy.

  • All I know is there would be less people in prison if they made weed legal.

  • We dont rehabilitate, we incarcerate....plus it keeps the unemployment numbers down

  • Because they don't have enough prisons left for the other bad ass americans!

  • lol:-)

  • Cuz we have a greedy government....

  • You mad bro?

  • Because most prisons are privately owned and the more people you have in them the more profit you make. A fine example of corporate take over of human rights.

  • peanut, pickle and jam sandwich

  • Probably as many or more in "assisted living." Much the same, except you pay them for the privilege.

  • Because the other 3 million were smart enough to not get caught

  • is that how many black people are in the states besides obama?

  • It would be more, but the courts let women get away with rape, murder, assault, etc.

  • 3 hots and a cot? :D

  • because they didnt have duke powell. or something. sycophant.

  • Nice video Duke!!! AND BEST QUOTE OF THE DAY!!!

  • "Now your just wasting my time , dislike" But Duke Powell told us to like. He should go to jail and make the pop. 2,500,001

  • Because we're thirsty for those things liek sex weed and stuff.

    Or cus some people are too ignorant. Either works. :3

  • That was an awesome intro.

    QOTD: Because humans make the best pets.

  • because theyre angry that duke powell is in canada

  • Cause they dun goof'd

  • I just watched a weezywaiter video...

  • maybe because they´re criminals?

  • QOTD: they didnt get to watch enough Duke Powell whilst growing up.

  • maybe its because they are criminals 

  • Because people can't afford to live outside of prison.

  • George Bush.

  • Because they touched themselves at night

  • Because the US has a horrible social divide between the types of people we always see on TV living the amazing American Life that everyone seems to want and the types of people who live in shitholes where a lot of them have turned to drug trade, theft and gangs for money. That is how the US has one of the worst crime rates on the planet but also manages to be rich. The same kinda goes for the UK and France.

    It's the reason why if I was ever to leave London I'd go to Canada or Australia.

  • @fluffymole0913 same... and yes what you say is true about france, there is more gangs that they make us believe...

  • @picorettte Have you seen the film District 13? It's all in French but It's a very good action film set in a shut off, poverty and crime struck district of Paris. It's a bit of an exaggeration but it really does display what France is like. Most big cities have a total divide between the areas tourists flock to every year and a jungle of concrete where violence occurs frequently. France is very socially divided.

  • @fluffymole0913 i know im french, thats why i ws saying "us" xD i havent seen that though might give it a try. But tbh i dont like Paris even though i live in it because the ambiance in the streets is just... sick. You feel bad if you walk on your own without friend to talk to, the city seems rly wild and full of hate :s but thats just a feeling not EVERYBODY is dangerous xD but yeah its not what it used to be :( and im not being racist but this is partially due to immigration, it created groups

  • @picorettte Oh when you said that I thought you meant that France were telling other countries they have less of a gag problem than they really do. I think the way you described it is almost exactly how it is in some areas of London and Birmingham. I saw a documentary where a man called Donal McIntyre goes to some of the worlds most dangerous places and with one episode he went to Paris. Am I right in saying that there is a lot of tension between North Africans and Blacks there?

  • @fluffymole0913 yes there is unfortunatly :s

  • @fluffymole0913 Australia's to expensive to live in now, trust me I live there/

  • Black people.

    NO I'M ACTUALLY JOKING I'M NOT RACIST. I'M BLACK MYSELF.

    hehehe

  • Because They Do Baddy Things, >;O

  • Drugs and alcohol

  • because they like toss salad

  • you met fluffee AND Micheal?

  • Foreclosed homes..

  • nice quote

  • The War on [insert political cause here] is why the prisons are so full.

  • 6 trolls saw this video and didnt like it

  • drugs is the problem

  • nice intro bro

    

  • And lots of those people are black ,poverty is the answer ,young people are forced to grow cold or sell drugs ,the prison,s in the US are owned by corporations and demand G money, its better in Canada where the worst are put away but the rest are helped to see a better way .

  • their in jail because of the free rent and free food.

  • Fuck rwj; i have this guy!

  • they mistake prison for a World of Warcraft club

  • after that Casey Anthony verdict I don't know how anybody is in Jail in the US

  • @thecultchie marijuana possesion 

  • Duke are you in the Oakwood Apartments on W Huron St

  • Because Chuck Norris needed somewhere to put all the bad guys he Captured one afternoon

  • becouse im watching ur show

  • Dunno but there should be 2.5million and 1 but somehow Casey Anthony was found innocent -.-

  • idk...but don't it seems easier to just let them keep what ever they stole to get in there in the first place xD

  • Of Duke Powell?

  • Because America is the home of the trolls......

  • damn, i love your shirt and haircut, duke.

  • My son wanted to know why the US spends more on prisoners then students. He said some principal in the US tried to have his school redefined in his state as a prison so that the school could get more funding.

  • 5 people hated the first 10 seconds that much.

  • promised not to leave hateful comments ...

  • Why the f*ck not?

  • Duke, I've been here since you only had 1000 subscribers. you've come a long way. keep up the awesome. ;)

  • Fuck yer, thanks for the shout out duke!!!

  • 8,334/1,000,000 americans are in prison, thats 0.83%, and thats because people of the ghetto need a living becuase the american bitch ass goverment wont fix their shit :D

  • because "aint nothing to it, gangsta rap made me do it" doesn't work anymore :\

  • Hey why didn't you let me know to join in the video? D:

  • Duke deserves more views!!

  • So many people are incarcerated because, just like anything else in America, there is a profit to be made.

  • NEW INTRO <3

  • Fucked up laws, fucked up cops, fucked up courts and fucked up people

  • because the system is for the most part flawed ...broken , biased and slow to adapt to an everchanging society.

  • 2.5 Mil people in jail cause... I don't even know.. It's not like I'm making the video.

  • 2.5 Million people are in jail because there aren't enough beds for homeless people on the sidewalks...

  • omg my favorite, duke powell and wheezy waiter!

  • 2.5 million are in jail because they didn't hit the like button on your video...or rub your head >.>

    I WANNA RUB YOUR HEAD DUKE!

  • you deserve it,wheezy waiter for the win

  • Obama

  • the great thing about trolls in reality is that you can beat thier ass and no one will snitch on you. You see, trolls have evolved, before they were those smug introverts that stick out as the shy, quiet, awkward person. they type that is voted most likely to shoot up your school. After social networks and video based sites came around, it gave them the freedom to spread their troll wings. they are the Keyboard Klansmen and Keyboard Warriors we know and face from time to time!

  • This video was too short >.<

  • Why you ask? Its a business, the more prisoners in, the more they make. The report was that U.S spent 30 Billion dollars annually on prisons. I'd say why not just ship all these assholes to another country. I wouldn't cost as much as keeping them here. And I also read somewhere they are building a new Max Prison that will cost a few 100 million dollars.

  • omg ur in chicago??? im going there tomorow to visit my family ^-^......highways or w/e out ur window!! pretty colors...jk.....oooo blue!!.......

  • hey duke powell, long time no type just here, keeping up with your views

    You know you want to join, don't even try lying to us. Facebook is dead now.

  • OMG wheezywaiter and duke powell! AWESOME

  • 1st!

  • I'd subscribe you Duke Powell if I could do it more than once

  • Because the justice sysem, the government, the economy, and sometimes schools are corrupted.

  • IM A CRACK WHORE AT HOOKER HOTLINE

    

  • Cause, Who would say no to free rent, food, bed, a room?

  • Because they keep innocents in prisons !

  • Because marijuana is illegal.

  • Comment removed

  • Because we don't have a recourse based economy and prisons trade stocks based upon how many inmates they have :(

  • Because 2.5m people never heard of you so thats a crime on its own so they are in jail.

  • Remember me?

  • our legal system is a little backwards we (and i shouldn't say we coz i wouldn't do that... maybe) would arrest anyone for anything. a good number of inmates yea are cold blooded criminals the rest are there to reach quota. "a demon spends more time demonizing the innocent to glorify themselves" but that just my opinion.

  • 2.5 mill in prison because prisons are an industry here and also the gov doesn't seem to like people who use certain vegetation.

  • i missed your black ass!

  • @TheDrOctupus hahaha

  • 2.5 million people just wanted free housing.

  • There are 2.5 million prisoners in US because it is more humane to feed criminals and let tax payers starve.
