Prisons in Honduras

Prisons in Honduras house an estimated 12,000 prisoners in Honduras, with a general population of 8 million.[1] There have been a number of massacres, including 69 people killed in a rural prison outside La Ceiba called La Granja (The Farm) in April 2003.[2] On April 26, 2008, 9 people were massacred in a prison located in the center of San Pedro Sula.[3] On May 3, 2008, 18 prisoners were massacred in a prison to the north of Tegucigalpa, the capital city of Honduras.[4] Due to problems with street gangs, prisoners are divided into 3 groups: Maras (active gang members), Pesetas (former gang members) and paisas (those who have never been in a gang before their incarceration).

gollark: <@330678593904443393> That storage only supports reading and toggling it. I would prefer to have, if I were to use it, the ability to write 0/1 specifically.
gollark: For a storage bit I would want "read" (the output), "write" (the input to write to the storage) and "trigger_write" (pulse this input on to write to storage).
gollark: Wait. Are you doing this in survival?
gollark: But you can only do toggle and read.
gollark: So that's some sort of toggle cell?
