NYTimes.com: Women In Prison

Matt writes "Just look at

this!

"Poor Dearism" run amok. Still, they did make some points that they would not have made 20 years ago re the fact that women are committing more crimes than before because of the opportunities to do so. Somehow though, I imagine observers will find ways to make men the fall guys.

But I have to say that this one quote:



"'When you arrest a woman, you are also disrupting the lives of her children,' said Ann Jacobs, executive director of the Women's Prison Association, a New York organization that helps female inmates and their families"



realllly makes me see RED!!! I mean, when you arrest a man, same thing happens, yes?? What a load of &()*^%^*( !!!"



Perhaps this calls for a few letters to the editor at letters@nytimes.com? See this page for a guide to writing them.
