CA considers condoms in prisons to cut STD rate

[green73]

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) -- California prisoners have unprotected sexual contact, forced or consensual, even if both are illegal, and this reality often leads to the spread of HIV and other diseases in prisons and in communities where felons are paroled.

Setting up a difficult conversation, one state lawmaker says it's time to give inmates a way to practice safe sex behind bars to reduce an infection rate that experts say is much higher than that of the general population.

Rape waits for no condom.

Peckers gonna peck.

It should be telling that you cannot stop sexual acts or drug use in the most controlled environment possible. Somehow, people still think the government can accomplish prevention of both of those things in a supposedly free country.

The R's would suggest stronger power, the L's suggest more spending. No wonder those two parties get along so well.

Non-violent "offenders" who were raped and contracted STD's (or even just raped), should sue the SHIT out of the state.

As should the violent offenders. If you are handcuffed and trip into a cop, that could be classified as violent assault.

I thought he had meant liberals.

That doesn't make a bit of sense but OK. True liberals aren't about more spending for the sake of spending. Though, many Democrats tend to support that. Maybe he meant D?

Yep, all jokes aside. It is very sad that such things happen to people who should not even be in those rape cages to begin with.

R & L = right and left?

[Warrior_of_Freedom]

why don't they give them some lube too, and some warming gel (btw don't want to know how they do it otherwise)

[Keith and stuff]

R & L = right and left?

That is another possibility. Oh well. Maybe I'm slow. I just did understand that post.

[juleswin]

Lol, I say they add in date rape drugs with the condoms. That way the victim is calm during the ordeal and along with STD prevention, it will prevent anal and other bruising.

R & L = right and left?Oops. Sorry if that wasn't clear. Yes, Righties and Lefties.
