Will these college football players start wearing orange jumpsuits?

(SEE BOTTOM FOR UPDATE)
Florida Atlantic University is about to let the GEO Group, a notorious private prison company, slap its name on a new football stadium. Don't allow that to happen! This corporation has violated human rights, overseen needless deaths of prisoners, and provided filthy conditions at its facilities. Sign this petition to demand that university president Mary Jane Saunders reverse her decision! http://www.beyondbars.org/stop_geo_st...

This video was done in partnership with the Nation Inside, Cuéntame, and Grassroots Leadership.

UPDATE: Victory! The GEO Group has withdrawn its attempt to name FAU's stadium! Action can work.

Seems about right.

America is already educated... we are educated in the activities of little boo boo and many other entertaining Tv show's ...when you get to live in a wonderful dream world why would you want to wake up?

[Stikibits]

That's pretty fucked up.

When will Americans get educated and start voting based on facts rather than doctrine and dogma?

[slicingwater]

That's sick.

WRONG!! this privatizing and profiteering HAS TO END. WE ARE THE CITIZENS, WE ARE THE BOSSES OF THIS NATION. Let's start acting like it! let's do as Iceland did and put all the crooks where they belong, take over the banks and the government the way they did.

THE MOST DESPICABLE PROFITEERING IN AMERICA--The Private Prison "Industry"--aggressively lobbying for longer sentences, addicted to the "war on drugs" and their dirtiest secret wetdream in these hardening times: DEBTOR'S PRISON. Think about it. You know THEY do. Every politician they buy, means more drool to that end, on their corporate pillow. Far, still--but ever slowly closer. 'If we could start with even a 6-month sentence for 5K debt-'default'--low-security "facilities" by the McThousands!

good idea.

This video is only about 6 hours old and on a channel with only 8 thousand subs. At this rate (300+ views in 6 hours) it could be his most popular video of 541. Still, not enough in my opinion either but it has potential to get a good amount of views.
