I hope our society finally is getting serious about this problem. It sickens me how often prison rape is looked on as an acceptable form of punishment or a joke.

In my facility if a prisoner wants a condom we give it to him. No questions asked, after all they have a "Right to Privacy".(Can you believe it!)

Stupid liberals and their stupid policies.

I am not defending prison rape. Rape is wrong. If I were the warden, I would take it seriously, and seek to prevent it. However, as a member of society who is not a prison warden, I am not interested in hearing the complaints of people who wouldn't be in the situation to begin with, had they not chosen to break the law. I manage to stay out of prison. It's easy. You obey the law. There is nothing hard about that.

Speeding is not an offense that puts you in prison. Possessing or selling drugs is such an offense. You're comparing apples to asteroids.
