"The law establishes a National Prison Rape Reduction Commission of nine members, three to be appointed by the president and six by congressional leaders. It calls for an annual Department of Justice review of the rate and effects of prison rape."

This is long overdue. I wonder how the feminists will spin this to demean and insult the thousands of male victims who are brutalized in prisons? Heaven forbide that we show the true nature of violence against men in all areas. Someone might have to pass a violence against men act. True, the majority of extreme violence against men is committed by other men, but tell that to the innocent men who are the victims. Somehow being a victim and being male is all the fault of being male in the eyes of the feminist mind.

There's no excuse for violence against men, or the discounting of it by rabid feminists as is so often the case.

We still don't.

"At worst, prison is a place where men and women pay for their crimes by being isolated from the world. "
"The sexual brutalization of inmates exposes men and women to punishment that is not only cruel but that also severely impedes their opportunity to rehabilitate themselves "

Once again, a problem that affects *mostly* men (prison rape) has women thrown into the description to prove to the world that women suffer *just as much* as men do.

Oops. Despite my comment, I still think that the story in the article is a step in the right direction and a good thing.
