Feds want to make prison more family-friendly ...but only for female prisoners.

Sue. We have a constitution that guarantees equal protection under the law. A while back I remember there was a program in California designed to allow prisoners to serve their sentences in the community rather than prisons, but the application was restricted to women only. A judge ruled it unconstitutional on the grounds that the right to freedom is the most fundamental of all rights and cannot be applied in a discriminatory way.

I'm not saying making prisons more family friendly is a bad thing. I'm saying a male inmate should sue to get those rights as well.

You really have to read between the lines to see it's only a female-only initiative.
