San Francisco Jail Installs c*ndom Machines In Cells NEWS WHAT ?
Prisoners in the San Francisco County Jail have received some news so good that will have them jumping on top of each other-no pause intended.
According to published reports, officials in the San Francisco County Jail's San Bruno lockup have approved the installation of 16 c*ndom machines.
The jail, which currently houses over 750 inmates, is using the bold move to initiate the system's safe-s*x program.
The latest plug-in for the safe-s*x program, which began in 1989 when health workers began distributing c*ndoms to inmates as part of their counseling before they were released, has it's attention centered around lowering reported AIDS cases centered around unprotected jail house s*x.
"It may be controversial," Sheriff Michael Hennessey told the San Francisco Chronicle, "But I think the larger health education message is important."
Although s*x among inmates technically is illegal, the Sheriff's Department decided to install one machine in each pod that was paid for by a pair of small grants from UCSF and a Southern California nonprofit.
“The s*x already takes place,” Program Director of San Francisco Public Health Department Kate Monico Klein said. “If (providing c*ndoms) saves one or two lives, it's worth it."
So I guess the next step will be to offer up candles to make it romantic?
What's your thoughts, was the decision to install c*ndom machines a good one or does it aid in the potential rapes of men while in jail?

that's good.... I mean... it is what it is.... so they need to be protected.... HIV/AIDS should be a major concern for inmates. I for one am glad that some states are stepping up after all some inmates will be released and back within our population.... So I think it's worth it!!
