Oh come now, you cannot compare the atrocities of Saddam’s prisons with a couple moronic guards.

If you want to do it right you’d better have facts, evidence, and logic.

I can’t wait to go search that Insta-Synchophant James Lileks. He wanted to go to war to save the kiddies too.

What? How hypocritical! There are plenty of children in U. S. prisons. The number of minors in state prisons has more than doubled in the past 12 years, according to a study by the Justice Department February 27, 2000. The main reason there are more juveniles in jail is due to prosecutors and judges having more options to try them as adults.
