The fact that we americans tolerate both prison rape and jokes and threats about prison rape is one of the signs of how sick we have become as a society.
The prison-industrial complex, and especially the drug war, has corrupted cops, courts, the media, TV and movies, and the american mind.
But using the fact that we are sick enough as a nation to joke about prison rape, as a defense and reason for shaming a girl who was drugged and raped is even sicker.
It's not easy to get the logic behind that kind of thing - but, it's common logic, and there are big sectors of the population that are going to blame the girl and say almost anything to excuse her rapists and the sherrif, the prosecutor, the coaches, and the school for covering it up.
And that also shows how sick modern society has become.
