It's a sorry excuse for supporting the death penalty.
It isn't an excuse. It is a part of the legal reasoning behind why we have the death penalty. The 'corrective behavior' aspect of US prisons died out decades ago...so basically it is all revenge and retribution now. And repayment too, come to think of it.

Pointing to legal executions as justification for prison rape is the same moral relativism as pointing to U.S. presence in the middle-east as justification for flying planes into the World Trade Center.
I'm just not comfortable resting on that rationality.
