California Law

[Occhidiangela]

Cuz... We think cell MATE is a good idea? Why not have new inmate mixers, date nights, and romantic getaways for two to solitary? It seems just a bit unfair to the straight guys. Maybe we could just separate the HIV infected ones to a different cell block, and quarantine the new inmates until their blood tests came back?

Wonderful, a request to officially condone anal rape in American Prisons. Somehow, it does not surprise me that California, the land of "not quite right" is once again forging ahead, where no one with common sense has ever gone before.

How's this for an idea: anyone committing assault on another person in prison -- sexual assault and battery is a serious offense, as is rape -- gets put in solitary for a year. Please note that everytime someone rapes a woman or man out in the regular world, and is caught at it, the sentences are pretty severe. How about we apply that same standard to inmates?

I really have to ask why continuing to break the law with crimes against persons has become acceptable behavior for inmates.

Three strikes and you are dead would be my next recommendation.

Here is the progression.

Jake holds up a bank.

Jake some months later participates in anal rape of another inmate. DNA/forensic evidence from victim not all that hard to match. Where's he gonna go? Jake did it.
Jake does a year in solitary starting the next morning.
Jake does it again.
Jake does another year in solitary.
Jake does it again
Jake gets a gun put to his head, trigger is pulled, and he is dead.

That's justice.
