Is rape common down there?

Are beatings between inmates common?

TheCHive did a thread on this subject a few days ago comparing real prison experiences to TV dramatizations.  

Things that former inmates mentioned:
Total boredom
County Jail is safer, but more boring that Prison.  Local corruption (Sheriff pocketing money, while not providing essentials like TP) matters more than at the state prison level. 
Safety - If you're not a big mouth, not a member of a gang and treat others with respect, you are perfectly state safe in prison.
Shower Safety - dropping the soap issues is a fallacy
Prison Rape - a fallacy, and went on to mention that there are enough homosexuals in prison that those with the urge can find a willing friend
Child Abusers and Rapists - You're going to die - someone's going to eventually get you
Total Boredom
