your just stupid. are you telling me just because somone came over to england they should expect to be given somthing they cant eat and that they have to eat it? :rolleyes:

Am I correct in assuming you're "one of them"?

try and avoid the evil sterrotype on that one shall we


Its stupid that they are saying they'll do it, if you don't want it don't eat it!

Its probebly come about because of the hours upon hours of boredom they face and anger for not being free... they cook up a ham plan

Then they shouldn't eat it and go hungry. Beggars can't be choosers.

[Minstrels]

If the prisoners were made to eatt and there was no other option but to go hungry then they should be allowed to sue however if there was a second choice the prisoners should not be allowed to sue, simple.

Well I doubt you'd be saying that if a vegetarian getting served the same sandwich?...

Anyway no one were forcing the cell inmates to eat the sandwich , if they didn't want to starve the prisoners could of used their brains and taken out the ham and just ate the bread instead of eating the meat.

I am a vegetarian. Besides, if they're oh so devoutly following their religion then why are they in jail in the first place?

Prisoners shouldn't have rights, one you commit a crime your rights should cease to exist. This is political correctness gone mad - again.

The point of inprisoning criminals is to shut them away from society, considering the reason they're in there is because they're a threat to society. It's not justice if they have their human rights removed from them.
I don't think it's right that these inmates were subject to something like this which is against their beliefs, but it says they were only offered it... it's not like they were forced to eat it--I hope they lose.

Prisons have to have food which vegetarians can eat, as far as I am aware anyway.

So you're saying they should lose the right to follow thier religion strictly as they have been taught throughout life?
No matter what the circumstances, anyone should be able to choose what they believe in, and be able to question any possible attempts to prevent them from doing so.

No one should be able to tell others what they can/can't believe in. That's fascism.

What I find more worrying is

More than 200 Muslim inmates at the jail
