Every day someone is raped in a U.S. prison system.

Prison rape is illegal and the perpetrators are prosecuted.

I don't know anybody who thinks it's ok. Probably some sick and twisted individuals do think it's part of the risk of imprisonment, but that's not official US policy.

I doubt very much that leaving prisoners lying shackled in their own urine and feces for a day is official US policy either. I would appreciate it if a US government spokesman made that clear.

They made it clear about the Koran flushing eventually, although they took their sweet time about it.

Every day the worshipers of the serial sadistic rapist and his mrs. enabler ignore the evil acts of the past, accept the hollow denials and scream about the Ten Commandments being too visible somewhere.

"And how on earth can reasonable thinking people be outraged over the treatment of a book, and be silent for years over the routine rape of human beings in the U.S. prison system?"

But consider even in fruit and nut land, 12 regular citizens looked at all the facts and concluded one cannot convict even a strange person of crime when his accusers are a grifter mother and son who have been caught in past lie after lie.

But it is likely half those voted for lying kerry. What a great world it would be if people took a little more time to find the truth.

Loved the article on the EU.
