I alert whenever I see a post joking about or encouraging prison rape. I'd guess the hide rate is less than 20 percent. Prison rape is a human rights issue, plain and simple. For the life of me I don't understand how people could strongly condemn the rape of women in the free world then turn around and encourage it in prisons. It makes no sense to me.

While I greatly prefer the jury system to the DU2 moderating system, this is one area where the current system is inferior. The mods took a zero-tolerance approach to this issue.
