Life can be so unfair~ ( Archived) (72)

Muslim inmates at a prison in Great Britain were offended when shown a menu of the food they would receive during the holiest month of Ramadan. They were shocked to see that the "halal" menu included ham sandwiches. Some Muslims are threatening civil action claiming that they were victims of racial harassment and mistreatment. They claim that this was clear evidence to "underlying insensitivity" of the Prison Service.

The mayor of the town has issued an apology. The Justice Secretary has ordered that prison bosses be more diligent in catering to Muslim's needs. He also promised that the prison staff would be re-trained on prisoners' cultural and religious needs. Even more absurd, additional local management checks and staff training will be introduced to the prison before Ramadan begins.

The Prison Service already offers 11 different religious and cultural diets to meet prisoner demands. National Muslim leaders and organizations such as the Halal Food Authority are already consulted when putting together menus. Imams are also invited to make sure that food preparation and storage facilities comply with Islamic religious code.

Sometimes life isn't fair

I think I'll keep my thoughts to myself.

Or they could just let the whole lot of them out so they can dine and wine in taste

We do things differently over here...you Americans just don't understand.

hahah

haha thats right.. we let our prisoners have a GREAT time.. all mod cons.. all tastes catered for.

I love this girl.

Educate 'em - yup, I'm all for that. But make the swines work for every privilege they get...without letting them forget they're being punished for anti-social behaviour!

Of course we understand, hence we had a revolution in the 1700's.
