1. This is too long. You don't need to write a senior thesis. You have a tendency to be repetitive. There are intelligent people following you. Intelligent people do a lot of reading. Their time is also valuable.

Stay professional; use "jailing" or "incarcerating." Don't let your own frustration bleed through in your writing.

humans are, after all.... animals. Most are good..some earn the cage.
