UK Justice Minister Proposes to Release 50% of Women Criminals "because they do not belong in prison"

If they are going to release women with no history of violence will they do it for men also? In the US there is the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, Equal Protection Under the Law which would prevent such an arbitrary decision.

What the hell is this guy smoking?

He added that it was his belief that women tend to leave behind family responsibilities, unlike men

Yeah, men don't have family responsibilities. They all just pick up and shove off at their earliest convenience, am I right?

"Women are a special case for very good, evidenced reasons. Firstly, many more women who go to prison have themselves been victims. They've often been abused or in violent partnerships,"

Being a victim absolves you of wrongdoing in the eyes of the law? As long as I was abused by my last partner, I can get away with stealing a car? Sweeeeet.

Simon Hughes doesn't need to hold public office in any civilized nation. What a joke.

Pure bigotry: Men commit crimes because they are evil and should be punished; but women commit crimes because they are victims and should be helped
