Hermit - regarding the long list of US resistance against human rights laws, you should see:
http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2002/7/25/8829/40282
"The UN's Economic and Social Council passed yesterday a new, important instrument: the draft Optional Protocol to the UN convention against torture. Voting against it (or actively opposing it) we've got the usual suspects (China, Egypt, Cuba, Saudi Arabia) and, guess what, the US."
On the related issue of prison rape see:
http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2002/7/27/123753/741
"95 percent of people in prison will eventually be released back into society, so if they contract AIDS or other diseases while incarcerated they will be a tremendous burden to society due to healthcare costs and the threat they pose for spreading disease."
