Prisoners' reactions just like anyone else's...
"One of the more surreal war stories I've heard so far comes from my brother, who works as a prosecutor in Galveston. He says that, rushing from point A to point B yesterday, he cut through a minimum-security wing of the jail. All the prisoners were gathered around the televisions in their orange jumpsuits, closely following the story of the terrorist attack, just like the jailers & with pretty much the same reactions. They say this sort of thing brings Americans together, and they're righter than they realize." (Virginia Postrel)
