I got my heart check during chow on my second day. Someone cut me in line and then when I confronted him, he asked what I was going to do about it. So I'll tell you what I did about it.

OP i have a question. do you think that in your situation the "heart check" was when he jumped you in line or when he asked what you would do about it. for instance, had you not even acknowledged that he jumped you would you have been considered a bitch? i think i would assume he was just hungry.

i ask this cause tho i have issues with violence, i dont go around looking for fights; im the dude that doesnt rage out when he gets cut off in traffic. so far it has worked out for me, but im wondering if maybe i should switch up my mentality for when i go to prison.

Prison is my retirement plan too... roof over my head, free meals, and free healthcare. Except for the constant buttraping (there's young inmates for them to pursue... I imagine they leave old retired dudes alone), seems like a pretty good deal.

When in a "captivity" type of environment, you are constantly being judged by your peers. Had he not acted the way he did, it would make everyone who saw the incident think he's weak, and can be taken advantage of. They live by their own laws of the jungle, and common sense and logic have no place in their world, only certain factors apply.

Truth is, whether people realize it or not - they are constantly being judged by others, and in a place you cannot leave like a prison or the military, you cannot afford to let people think you can't stand up for yourself.
