Remember, people there have values, unlike you:

JACKSON, Miss. -- The state reached a settlement with federal officials over allegations of abuse at two juvenile facilities, where inmates were sometimes hogtied or forced to eat their own vomit, authorities said Wednesday.

Under the agreement, Mississippi must improve its special education, mental health, medical and suicide prevention programs at Oakley Training School and Columbia Training School, state Attorney General Jim Hood said.

A paramilitary program at the training schools will continue, but students with mental health or physical problems will be excluded from it....
