241-260

The men are being kept in a cage and are being held prisoner. One man is challenged in the head and he is saying stuff and the guards are getting mad so they spray him with pepper spray and throw a bucket of water on him. They are being treated badly. Zeitoun is kept in the prison along with other inmates. He cant sleep and if he does its for only a couple hours at a time. He feels bad because he cant be with his family. Who knows how long he is going to be in the prison. Zeitoun is still contained till what I read he lives the life of a criminal. He is given a orange jump suit and is treated like a criminal. He also encounters a stabbing pain and cannot sit in the same position for more than 5 or 10 minutes. He and other inmates tell stories of the storm and how they were caught. One says that he was a firefighter and got caught for stealing.




My personal response to this is that Zeitoun is in prison for no reason. He was helping out the city and he shouldnt be there. To me it is really dumb. He is being treated like that for no reason. He is being treated like a criminal becasue he served his city when it was in need. It makes me mad that he went head over heals for his city and he isnt being re paid good. Also for the fire fighter who got arrested thats dumb. I know he committed a crime but if FEMA isnt helping he has to fend for himself. If stealing is what he has to do then he has to do it. I would steal if I needed supplies or food to live. Its a dog eat dog world. You gotta do what u gotta do.
