[Suggestion] prison rape?
Posted: Sat Jul 23, 2016 8:05 am
i know its a dark and touchy subject (no pun intended). but it happens quite a bit in prison. i think it is a good and realistic thing to add to the game.

Can you prove it happens quite a lot in prison or are you just going by movies and stereotypes?
Also what would that achieve? It's already hard enough to keep the safety need low and the danger level low.

If you want to show that prison rape is such a huge, important problem, you should probably start by showing how it compares to non-prison rape.

Its specific, not "raw" - we aren't quoting a crappy news source, we're quoting the official federal website for these exact numbers.

Tell me, how much do you know?
How familiar are you with the details that are generally reported by many victims of rape during a correctional stay?

You are clearly reaching for anything to fuel your stance against me, so much so that I do not care to reply to a single word of it.
