It also includes men who are not physically or mentally capable of carrying out the assigned task. This is true for law enforcement (e.g. prison guards), combat forces, etc.<br /><br />It is simply amazing how easily meaningful debates and conversations are derailed through introduction of emotional appeals, irrelevant exceptions, or counterfactuals. There is a propensity for some people to deny the terms and circumstances of our common reality.<br /><br />Well, I understand why they do it; but, exploiting differentials and gradients to advance political, economic, and social standing, is not only selfish, it is actually counterproductive, certainly for the general Welfare, and ultimately for individual welfare. In the worst cases, it serves to denigrate individual dignity and devalue human life.n.nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04252447117532342957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-57501451899019265512013-04-29T07:44:58.518-07:002013-04-29T07:44:58.518-07:00I think Stu has fantasies of hot lady prison guard...I think Stu has fantasies of hot lady prison guards.

The word misogynist has lost any real meaning just as the "race" card no longer buys the acquisition of greater standing with almost anyone with active brain cells. The use of such terms is how most of us know we have won the debate.<br />It is laughable and childish to see it used especially in this case. When subjects and issues are off limits just because one does not like where it might lead is not our problem. It is the problem of those who cannot use their intellect to rebut. The ability to discuss any issue, no matter how contentious, is the mark of a free society. All ideas are subjected to the "marketplace" of ideas where they can be challenged. Otherwise we are ruled by those who would control us.<br />Given anon's analysis one would be correct in assuming that these commenters have "father" issues with just a bit of misandry involved. Aren't making assumptions about other people fun?<br />As n.n makes clear a prison guard has to have the ability to project authority to those who are under their control. If they cannot do that then they are not suitable for the job just as a woman who cannot meet the physical requirements for advanced combat positions should not be placed in those positions fro political expediency. A group is only as strong as its weakest link.<br />Questioning the advisability of putting women in positions where they lack the physical wherewithal to handle very smart criminals who know how to use people to their advantage is a question that needs to be dealt with in an intelligent manner.<br />To our radical feminist master: How about a demonstration of your mastery of intelligent discourse!Dennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14962996070458991675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-89561232880281041282013-04-29T04:04:34.014-07:002013-04-29T04:04:34.014-07:00But, why can't they change the rule?But, why can't they change the rule?Stuart Schneidermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12784043736879991769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-26608291341202214612013-04-29T04:01:16.509-07:002013-04-29T04:01:16.509-07:00Students who want to work as prison guards in the ...Students who want to work as prison guards in the federal prison system usually require a bachelor's degree, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04261032072030658084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-73205481685914647542013-04-28T15:38:36.793-07:002013-04-28T15:38:36.793-07:00"Wow!

Anon, ..."Wow! What a misogynistic post!"<br /><br />Anon, Welcome to Stuart's world. <br /><br />I think it's pretty obvious Stu has some sort of mother complex fueling his hatred of women--especially women in positions of authority, like prison guards and CEOs. He can't stand it. It doesn't take a Freudian to see the obvious: the prototype for all "high-powered" women in positions of power is, of course, good ol mom.<br /> <br />Poor Stuie was probably dominated by an overbearing martinet of a mother and he just can't get over it. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-24881249032213682442013-04-28T10:13:02.470-07:002013-04-28T10:13:02.470-07:00Anonymous:

In a prison, the likelihood is that most inmates will not respect authority unless it is imposed. If the guard can be intimidated, or is derelict in their duty, then the guard has no practical authority.<br /><br />This is the same problem which exists with the current gun control discussion. They are proposing proscriptive measures which do not address the situation they claimed gave impetus to their actions. They ignore that criminals, by definition, are not constrained by laws. They are only constrained by risk and opportunities cost. The actions of criminals who are willing to murder (e.g. Newtown's Lanza) or rape another person, are particularly liberal and progressive until they are forcefully constrained.n.nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04252447117532342957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-59426431080203005142013-04-28T09:39:05.802-07:002013-04-28T09:39:05.802-07:00And Anon accuses Stuart of being misogynistic!
