Should he have a right to special treatment because he is a muslim?

Should any prisoner recieve special treatment because of their faith/religion?

(spelled separate wrong in poll)

 

[Neil09]

I don't think so, of course the fact that he murdered two people may have a play in my opinion

 

[Baldrik78]

No pork products? So the entire prison system has to go without jello? WTH!

 

[SGT_Kramer]

eyyy I should have looked before I voted.. I'm the only one who voted Yes, he should be allowed to practice his faith. I need to stop hugging people something cuz I guess it's making me soft.

 

[alpinehyperlite]

Just cook it all in one big pot and tell him its whatever he wants to hear.

Pretty sure you give up all of your rights when you walk into the prison wearing an orange jumpsuit. I think he should be served a pulled pork sandwich and a tall glass of Shut The **** Up.

I worked at Angola, and any prisoner needing a special diet for the practice of their religion (within reason) was granted it, muslims were allowed to not have pork and were substituted with beef, catholics were given seafood or fish on fridays during lent, hindus no beef etc etc, this falls under freedom of religion and cruel and unusual punishment protection. Not at all saying I agree with him, personally if you kill people you give up your rights to be treated as a human and therefore screw your diet, they need to execute him and get it over with, after putting some bacon on him after he's strapped down, just to see how that whole "paradise" thing isn't going to happen for him, just my .02

see this is what gets me.. I'm catholic and would want the same right. I'm sure someone Jewish would too.. Not saying it has to be anything any better just within religous standard.

Separate church and state....

 

[Hitman]

Seperate church and state, he eats what he gets

wow...what a preposterous misinterpretation.

wow...what a preposterous misinterpretation.

People think it applies to anything slightly pertaining to the government and religion. I can't remember the lecture I heard the other day about it, but it made me LOL.

I had to eat liver in the Army and I didn't do anything wrong.

 

[angrycookieman]

LOL! I think that says it all!

+1. Can't even begin to say how much I agree with this statement.

ME TOO!!! We're not talking about accommodating visiting dignitaries. There are death-row inmates, right? I'm 100% against coddling any prisoners for any reason. If you're a muslim or a jew, and you'd like to ensure your personal ability to eat a certain way, do not commit a crime!

I mean, he could always convert to Southern Baptist. We subscribe to the bible (which includes the new testament) and eat everything!

you eat what you get, regardless of belief... you do have rights though..cruel punishment and inhumane enviroment are two that i disagree with

for death row inmates? if so, I'd be agreeable on offering them the easy way out as an option to having to tolerate anything they may deem cruel and/or inhumane, and in the same manner as their victims.
