I am going to go out on a limb here and say that the court would mandate proper lube and a condom.

Yea, that must be it. I'm a marijuana legalization advocate so my mind must be filled with paranoid thoughts of rape and torture. That's totally my bad.

I'm a legalization advocate as well but I'm not paranoid.

Gotta go with Rider on this one.

Quit watching American History X while stoned.

Yes, rape happens.

No, it is not condoned nor administered as a punishment (by any legal authority) in the USA.

Have you guys ever actually talked to a guy that's served time in prison? Prison rape happens, and its very common. A good percentage of the rapes are performed by guards, and the rest are performed while guards are turning a blind eye. It is in fact condoned by the only people of authority that really matter at that point, those that control the prison population.

It is used as a form of punishment and a deterent.

Rape is control, not punishment. Don't confuse the two.

Yes I have. Quite a few, actually.

Being raped by a prison gang is not quite the same as "the US" using it as a means to punish.

Do you know for a fact that no Saudi prisoner has EVER been subject to rape?

Or both. Either way it doesn't matter, it is used and condoned and even accepted to a point by the general public, right here in the United States. I contend whether you call it control or punishment, it is torture.

Lets focus on our own barbaric practices instead of pointing out those of other nations.

No of course I don't, and it doesn't matter if they do or don't. I'm not worried about what other countries do or don't do as much as I'm concerned with what happens in the U.S.

I say it is the exact same getting raped by a prison gang while the guards and warden turn a blind eye as it would be if the judge ordered you to be raped. The end result is the same.

The U.S. Government, and state Governments that work with privately run prisons for profit, are well aware that prison rape is common and that authority generally turns a blind eye to it while at the same time sentencing more citizens of the U.S. to serve time in said prisons than any other nation, per capita.

Letting it happen is the same as ordering it to happen.
