Elizabeth Smart Case: Street Preacher Sentenced To Life In Prison For Kidnapping, Rape

One wonders just what sort of life the bastard will have in prison -- and how long that life will last when those old-timers who hate baby-rapers get through with him? XD

Nota bene: You know, when someone fraudulently represents himself to the public as having ( Read more... )

They used to stone false prophets. Sometimes I think we should resume that practice.

Oh, I think his being raped to death after his bunkies decide he's the prison wife will more than cover it.

I think that is much less than ideal. Prison rape is a serious problem and not something that should be joked about or tolerated, not even as a means to a supposedly worthwhile end. If society deems an act worthy of punishment, violators should be punished formally by members of the community, to put them to public shame and to serve as a warning to others. Simply abandoning someone unofficially to be brutalized by other criminals is an admission that we are rendered powerless by our own system. This may happen to be true, but two wrongs don't make a right.

It doesn't much matter. Prisons are bad places, with little control in many of them over prisoner-on-prisoner violence short of murder. Rape as well as consensual sex make the men less violent, something that makes those who run those prisons, and the guards within them, a little safer. So the management tends to look the other way when it comes to such things, especially if those who are raped are themselves pedophiles and/or rapists. If that ever changes radically for the better, it'll be because the number of people in the world suddenly dropped for some reason. As long as prisons are overcrowded, that sort of violence will continue.

Sorry about that -- LiveJournal signed me out again without warning. Anyway, that last comment was from me.

BTW, I have exactly no sympathy for rapists. Among other things, I was raped and molested repeatedly as a small child by my own adoptive parents and their friends. My foster parents, in whose "home" I was put for five years by the State of California, tried to get me to be part of a threesome with them, which is why I ran away from there (I was legally entitled to leave, so that end of it wasn't a problem) -- and then I found out later that they had actually planned to murder me, because they owed me $600 and didn't want to pay it back, and they thought I'd be so overwhelmed with joy at their asking me to have sex with them I'd be easy meat for murder. I was raped in late 1988, here in Seattle, as well, and the counselor that Harborview Hospital sent me to for counseling instead tried to crush my spirit and, I guess, try to make me commit suicide (turned out she was crazy, and they fired her, but that's another story). In every case, I never had any comfort when it would have done any good. Those who cared only cared to let me ( ... )

First of all, let me say that it is certainly not my intention to afflict you with your own bad memories or to belittle your experiences. Nor am I here to judge your standing before God for anything you have or haven't done ( ... )

Sure, prison rape is evil. And it'll go on and on and on until there are no more prisons anywhere where violent men are confined. The thing is, in some cases, though not the majority, not even a large number of cases, getting raped in prison is, purely accidentally, the sort of consequence that those who commit rape of others, especially children, while they were free really deserve. This would be such a case.

Prison rape isn't going to go away any time soon. Acknowledging that it is evil isn't going to eliminate it. So here is one case where, accidentally, somebody will get exactly what he deserves -- and you can bet that other prisoners in whatever facility they put him in will let him know that. Many of the men in hard-time prisons, perhaps most of them, were raped by adults when they were children, and for that reason they hate child-molesters. They've never had any other outlet for that hatred, or remedies for their suffering, than perpetrating violence on others -- they should have had, but they never did. So, for lack ( ... )
