The prisoners have microwaves but they are starving??

[Jonty30]

I don’t see the problem. They were killing the rabbits and eating them.

There MUST be a way to put a stop to this.

Take away the rabbits’ conjugal visits privileges.

What the heck is an “open prison” where prisoners have microwaves and get drunk and walk out the front gate??

Shouldn’t murderers be in a more secure facility than that??

or are those reserved for racists and right-wing rabble rousers?

[Kip Russell]

It upsets the prison staff that animals are being killed and eaten? Where do they think meat comes from?

[Hardraade]

How about frying?

[ColdOne]

So it is OK just to kill the rabbits but not eat them. Insanity.

... how the grounds of Ford open prison were being dug up by around 5,000 of the creatures.

A preview of a Night of the Lepus remake?

[Still Thinking]

If it offends you when the inmates eat the rabbits, perhaps it would be better to take steps to see that THERE WEREN’T 5,000 OF THEM ON THE FRIGGING PREMISES!! D’oh! Some people. Oxygen thieves.

Where’s Jimmah?

It’s a lot better to kill them and eat them than to just kill them for the sake of killing them. What is the lesson the prison wants to teach these prisoners, anyway?

I wondered where this was, so I googled “Governor Sharon Jefcut.” Maybe if I waited to read the whole article I’d find my answer. But now I’m not interested, after what I found. Seems Governor Sharon Jefcut eats something furry, and it ain’t bunnies. Ick!

'Lesbian relationship': HMP Ford Governor Sharon Williams (right) is living with prison officer Jackie Jefcut. They are pictured here leaving an inquest in Leicester last August

I guess this was before the "wedding"

Hungry lags were ordered to stop snaring the pests and cooking them in their microwaves - because it upsets the prison's staff... But Governor Sharon Jefcut was hopping mad when she found prisoners were already killing the bunnies as an alternative to canteen fare.

The "journalists" conveniently leave out the fact that Gov Jefcut's lesbian lover/wife is a prison officer. Gee, I wonder who it was that was "offended", and what it was that prompted the firm response from the Governor's office? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I love eating rabbits.

There are 2 types around here; the jackrabbit (which I wouldn't eat on a bet) and the cottontail (excellent!).

Any time you can harvest a cottontail around this place is a good day.

Governor Sharon Jefcut ... wrote: "There have been incidents offenders killing rabbits to consume them. This practice is unacceptable. Pest control systems are the only means that will be utilised."

Why?

Oh, I'm sorry - she doesn't have to explain why. She's the head of a prison, so the why is obvious - because if you don't do as she says, no matter how hypocritical or irrational she is being, she has you stomped.

By her husband the guard, probably, who is actually her wife, but you can't point that out, or that her being lesbian has absolutely anything to do with anything, like, for example, anger management issues or revenge fantasies against men, because if you do... you'll be stomped.

Liberalism is its purest and most direct form - obey, or die.
