You should elaborate on why you believe these are comparable.
For example, consider a male convict who desires to be incarcerated in the female prison estate. Is it really civil rights discrimination to deny him this? If so, how?
Most importantly, what about the civil rights of the female prisoners he would be incarcerated with, if this were permitted?
- bokoharambe 2y agoAmerican prisons violate any notion of humaneness and rights from the outset. The abject subjects who are condemned to dwell in them cannot be used to illustrate anything about civil rights, other than the fact that the state regularly uses its sovereign power to violate them. If I was under constant threat of rape or murder, I would do anything to get to a situation that I thought might be less dangerous.
- zippipi 2y agoAre you aware of why prisons are, or were up until recently in some states, segregated by sex - why we have separate female and male prisons?
