The point is the cruelty. Plain evil ghoulish cruelty.

Such a "christian" thing to do.

Cruelty is the point of this measure by the diabolical Trumpf junta. On his very first day of seizing power on 20 Jan 2025, the Dummkopf Trumpf signed executive orders to promote capital punishment and to punish transgender and LGBTQ people. This is sycophantic USAG Pam Bondi executing the latter ukase. By sharp contrast, on Jimmy Carter's first day in the Oval Office on 20 Jan 1977, the kind-hearted POTUS pardoned all draft evaders from the brutal Vietnam War and ordered a full review of all court-martial cases related to servicemembers who were deployed to SE Asia.

Too bad the US Senate didn't listen to the voice of the American people and confirmed these two incompetent lickspittles to high office, so here we are. The scathing report card on D/FBI Kashyap Pramod Vinod Patel will be released later today, as well as the damning DODIG report on Pete Hegseth, the most underqualified individual to ever lead the Department of Defense.

Yet strangely, this policy wasn't posted on social media like USAG Pam Bondi's previous bloodthirsty comments about the death penalty or perpetual solitary confinement for federal inmates commuted from execution by POTUS Joe Biden.

There's lots of men in women prisons.

Wardens, COs, health care workers, janitors. Take your pick. (Of women prisoners you'd like to rape.)

It's fascinating how the lgb community is sucked into the tq neurosis.

Homosexuals have always navigated themselves through prison systems from forever ago...

The problem of rape... via the homosexual "bootybandit" gets his thrills via raping heterosexual men... "turning them out"... degrade them for being chomos, rapists, snitches etc etc etc...

Homosexual flamey types usually hook up for protection and securing an income.

The key feature is that it's a matter of violent homosexuals raping men... primarily straight men.

Now there is this bold subset of kinkies... men who call themselves lesbians ... I dunno because being a hetero sexual transvestite... doesn't have the right sort of perks or something. This especially includes heterosexual men who call themselves lesbian... while insisting everyone recognise them as a woman to avoid being yet another heterosexual man raped in prison. It's adding convoluted silliness to a serious problem.

Trans women are more vulnerable to attack because they engage in risky behaviour more often than women. They do that because they are men... it's what men do...
No one should be raped. But prisoners know a man is a man is a man... no matter how he talks, acts or what he looks like.

"It's fascinating how the lgb community is sucked into the tq neurosis."

Setting aside that transgender is normal human behavior:

Prison sex, it's Punks and Jocks.
It's about rape and power.
The jocks don't identify as gay.
The punks don't identify as gay either.
This is why we have the term MSM.

Men who have sex with men (MSM) are men who engage in sexual activity with other men, regardless of their sexual orientation or sexual identity.[1][2] The term was created by epidemiologists in the 1990s, to better study and communicate the spread of sexually transmitted infections such as HIV/AIDS between all sexually active males, not strictly those identifying as gay, bisexual, pansexual or various other sexualities,[1] but also for example male prostitutes. The term is often used in medical literature and social research to describe such men as a group. It does not describe any specific kind of sexual activity, and which activities are covered by the term depends on context. The alternative term "males who have sex with males" is sometimes considered more accurate in cases where those described may not be legal adults.[2]

"The key feature is that it's a matter of violent homosexuals raping men"

Not at all. Most of those rapists won't identify as homosexual.

The rate of gay and bisexual men in the prison and jail population in the U.S. (5.5% in prison and 3.3% in jail) is close to the national rate (3.6%).

In Goodfellas (1990), mobster Billy Batts tells his buttonman, asssociate, and girlfriend at the Suite Lodge to relax and take it easy when Tommy becomes angry at being insulted and heads towards Billy with malice aforethought. Under his breath, Billy Batts seems to say he's screwed bigger guys than Tommy in prison.

Billy Batts would not identify as homosexual either.

Gawd...
Only because they are more afraid of admitting they want to give it to a guy up the chute... and they need a "manly" excuse... you know... to save face amongst the bros... because ya see... in that circumstance... they're swinging that magic wand to dispense justice... set the world right... show some guy what fer... in a "cruel and unusual" way... right?

PPPFFFTTTT Puhleeze... so a man tells you he is a woman... and you believe him?.. or a man tells he is not homosexual... when he's t-------, bumping and ------- men... and you believe him?.. just because of what he says?
Fer realzies?
heavy sigh
Personally... I think rapists should be "Ken Dolled"... but for various reasons... after eons of males gaslighting... we're still acting like primates in the trees... and making up stories about it making... the dispensing of that kind of justice difficult to enforce... because a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do...

There are no special circumstances or reasons to house males with females for their safety. A male accused or convicted of a crime should be housed with other males... because how they "self-identify" doesn't change nature. I don't want to see a female dropped in with males either... common sense.

Special rendition is also a separate topic...

Prove that.

... and why do tq deserve protections no one else is offered based on their sexual preference?

An autogynophile is a straight man with a kink... nothing more... nothing less... he doesn't deserve a pass based on sexual preferences... and that is one example... I feel the same about furries... fatties...footies and any other self-indulgent kinker.

There are plenty of "gurlymen"... who can turn "butch" inside our like a dirty gym sock...a man is a man is a man

LGBs have been going to prison forever... I knew lots of queens back in the day who did time... rape happened to everyone... prisoners aren't more inclined to rape homosexuals (AIDS) than anyone else. It's about power.

For as long as I can remember... efforts have been made to curtail it... conjugal visits... marriages... classes in anger management... segregating chomos... whatever...

Here we are again... another crisis issue for men...now you want to take those wimps and hide them in women's prisons... among vulnerable women?

It would difficult, no impossible, to propose a legit Pres candidate more evil than a convicted fraud and sexual abuser, a notorious self-serving liar and bigot... and someone who's own DoJ testified that he committed crimes in order to stay in Office.

Not to mention someone who deliberately and needlessly caused the deaths of 600,000 people, 2/3rds of them children, just so he could say he was cutting government spending (to give himself and his billionaire donors a tax cut).

It doesn't get much more evil than that.
