Transwomen Being Mistreated In Prisons Isn't Cool, It's Cruel

One thing that pissed me off in the wake of the post I wrote concerning Jovanie Saldana's situation was Mariel Cobb going on an insensitive and bigoted right wing rant mere seconds after I posted the story to my Facebook page. This was the money quote in that thread:
Mariel Cobb i dont care waht ahppens to felons
And I wonder if Mariel Cobb's attitude would change if she was in Jovanie's pumps and it was her human rights being violated?

If one is non-op or pre-op, then perhaps the best solution is don't commit the effing crime that results in arrest and subsequent incarceration...it really is NOT that hard to stay out of jail.

She never said it was 'cool' so that's just a huge lie to try to lure readers into consuming her poorly written tripe. What the person said was "I don't care what happens to felons." OK, I'll give it a try.
Nope.
No.
Nah, my give-a-damn is busted on that issue too.

But Ann...you wouldn't be in business if it was that easy for some to stay out of jail. ;D

There is always work for lawyers as long as there are two of them.
