Global Conglomerate 3M and GPS Shackles

   This horrid GPS Shackle I have locked on my ankle was made by a company called Pro-Tech which has recently been purchased by the global conglomerate 3M which knows a money maker when It sees one. GPS Shackles for everyone! Gee, we sure will be safe then and just think of all the jobs GPS Shackles provide. So what that these barbaric devices do nothing to protect the public. Big deal that hundreds of million of taxpayer dollars are totally wasted on these GPS Balls and Chains every year. Doesn't matter that Law Enforcement time and energy is taken up by tracking GPS Shackles. 3M is racking in hundreds of millions !!! That's all that matters ! You can bet that 3M will be spending millions on lobbyists and propaganda to promote their new "product". An excellent article in Mother Jones Magazine (a magazine I subscribed to in prison) was recently published on how Hi-Tech Company's are making a killing on GPS for sex offenders. Here's a link to It:

   As with alot about The Sex Crime Witch Hunt, It all boils down to money. Follow the money and you'll see why GPS Shackles have become so popular. It needs to be exposed now!!!
