I'm glad someone mentioned this. The tacit acceptance of physical violence in prisons is so widespread in our society.

It's weird because a comment like "these executives deserve to be raped as punishment" would be considered disgusting and unfunny: frankly, you'd probably be made a social pariah for saying something like that. That statement is morally equivalent to the "pounding in the ass prison" statement, which is far more socially acceptable.

I genuinely think it's something that future generations will look back upon in horror.
