ARGUED MAY 6, 2009

Before EASTERBROOK, Chief Judge, and POSNER and WOOD, Circuit Judges.

Roger Fairley and Richard Gackowski worked as guards at the Cook County Jail in Chicago. After their peers threatened to kill them, they quit and sued the other guards, complaint handlers, the sheriff, and the County. (In saying that death threats were made, and throughout the opinion, we present the evidence in the light most favorable to plaintiffs. Defendants deny many of plaintiffs’ principal contentions.)
