[American Quilter]

The successful efforts of Muslim extremists to recruit convicts has been well documented for some time. Prisoners, the majority of whom are poorly educated, not too bright, and already reaping the results of believing the world owes them a living, are easy targets for the recruiters, who encourage them to think they're victims and deserve to be able to strike back at the society that put them behind bars.

I think our government, as a simple matter of self-preservation, should stop pretending that conversion to Islam in the jails can be a good thing. Muslim prisoners should be housed separately and not allowed any contact with non-Muslims. Muslim recruiters should not be allowed in the non-Muslim jail population. Conversion to Islam in prison doesn't reform prisoners--it further alienates them from society.

Agreed. And I agree with your suggestions - I think Muslims should be isolated from the other prisoners, because they only infect them with their ugly form of racism, religious hatred and violence.
