"I don't know Richard Reid, but I'll tell you one thing. You put a dog in a cage and keep poking it with a big stick, don't expect it to stay nice."I'm not going to spend much time concerned with Richard Reid's comfort.

This guy should have been executed years ago. There should be an international "prime directive". All terrorists are summarily executed within two weeks of trial, no exceptions.

At six feet four inches tall, Richard Reid makes a forbidding figure
Just a big dumb animal to me.

The guy who exposed everyone's stinky feet to the traveling world should rot in hell for eternity.

"For the other inmates, it's a case of undressing for a visual body-cavity search, but the Muslims have a religious issue that we need to respect," a prison source explained. "Need to respect".
WHY?
Hey, Guards.
Fill the CO2 extinguishers with propane in case the POS's light their bedding on fire.

The point of this story appears to be that incarceration of any kind is cruel and counterproductive.

Can you just see him at the final accounting in the sky being told to go around again. What a tool.

Wow, I'm all broken up over this.
I'm broken up over the fact we are spending a boat load of money keeping this walking piece of excrement alive every day.
The best message we can send is take a video tape of his execution and send it to Al Jazerra to broadcast it all over the ME

Appropriate.

"The color scheme within the ADX is "pretty raw, pale army green, cement gray, off-white," said Gary Kalitolites, 44, a prison guard who quit the job last year.
"It's a very negative atmosphere. They can't see grass or trees, they will never feel the touch of a loved one, they will never see bright colors, they're deprived of the sensory stimulation that you and I know.
"Everyone in there is in a dark abyss. The isolation breeds paranoia, it's contagious.
"I don't know Richard Reid, but I'll tell you one thing. You put a dog in a cage and keep poking it with a big stick, don't expect it to stay nice."
This tells me either the whole line is crap by the liberal journalist or the guy didn't work there long. I'm sure he would love to give Reid a hug and a coke and tell him it is all our fault-NOT.

It's a very negative atmosphere. They can't see grass or trees, they will never feel the touch of a loved one, they will never see bright colours, they're deprived of the sensory stimulation that you and I know. Excuuuuuse me! But isn't this the guy who was quite willing to take away any sensory stimulation EVER from a planeload of innocent people.
What, a few years in a max prison and every thing is fine and dandy, he was just having a bad day, we should feel sorry for him? Geesh, what is with journalists? This guy is a terrorist who was trying to blow up a passenger plane in order to commit mass murder for Allah. He can stay in that cell til he rots and it wouldn't bother me a bit.

ARTICLE SNIPPET:
""Other than maybe some incidental whining, he's a fairly compliant inmate and I never had problems with him, which is good because he's a big man. But remember that Richard Reid was in prison in England even before he became the Shoe Bomber. He's a convict through and through, and that makes him an extra special danger. He understands the system and how to manipulate it if he wants to." His docile demeanour as inmate number 24079-038 is a far cry from the behaviour that landed him here at the US Penitentiary Administrative Maximum Facility also known as ADX, Super Max, Bombers' Row, and the Alcatraz of the Rockies just outside the town of Florence, Colorado. Five years ago, on December 22, 2001, Reid, of Bromley, Kent, boarded American Airlines flight 63 from Paris to Miami, intending to blow it up by detonating plastic explosives hidden in one of his shoes. As he tried to light the fuse he was spotted by a flight attendant and, following a violent struggle, was overpowered. Just over a year later the young fanatic who had attended Finsbury Park mosque in London where Abu Hamza preached was sentenced to life in prison."

I remember reading a story about prisoners from the Baader-Meinhof gang that were incarcerated in Germany. They were treated like this, only worse-- if I recall right, no reading material, no exercise, no showers, no windows, just four concrete walls and a cot 24/7 for the rest of their lives. But they did have belts and shoelaces and what not, so they managed to solve the problem in a way that allowed all the Germans to go on congratulating themselves for their principled opposition to the death penalty.
