Inmates really do run the asylum.

I suppose this is in response to the high pregnancy rate at the men’s prison?

“allow the state to distribute condoms to prison inmates”
Among the other things taxpayers are being forced to pay for.
Are taxpayers required to buy them lube too?

All the problems in the state, and this is what they focus on.
Come to think of it, I'm surprised they had time what with all those nasty guns out there, and new "senseable" gun laws needing to be enacted. /s

So long as prison authorities can’t protect every inmate from forcible rape, then providing condoms is reasonable.
To: USFRIENDINVICTORIA
Rapists are going to follow the ‘rule’ ?
Isn’t that how they got to prison in the 1st place?

Because they are so good at obeying rules.
To: USFRIENDINVICTORIA
Who says prison authorities have the obligation to protect every inmate?
And if you think a rapist is going to take the time to use a condom, then....

Yes, I’d venture that few prison rapists will use the condoms. I am saying that, if all the stories are to be believed, prison authorities have failed miserably in carrying out their duty to prevent prison rapes. The least (and I do mean the least) they can do is attempt to protect the rape victims from being infected with deadly diseases. This isn’t about condoning the actions of the rapists, it’s about protecting their victims. Issuing condoms is a start, albeit probably largely a symbolic start. If you were to suggest dickerectomies for prison rapists, I wouldn’t be likely to object.
