Sorry Johnny, security outranks your right to hang with your terrorist homeboys for prayer sessions and chit-chat.

That’s what I thought too. If you are in prison, you forfeit certain rights. If you are in prison, how do you have the balls to file a lawsuit about practicing your religion? Does the ACLU have too much time on their hands? Have they had enough of suing to tear down crosses from tops of mountains? Now their cause celebre will be standing up for Muslim prisoners rights to pray?

Why not? He has nothing better to do anyway.

Expect him to request a government-paid yearly trip to Mecca any time now. It's also one of his "religious needs."

traitors have rights? i think not. he’s lucky he’s still walking this earth. i believe he can thank God quietly for that — alone.

If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime.
