Ya know....I'm no 'big' PETA fan...but our prisoners do have way too many priveleges. Not too sure I'm against this idea :)

For once I agree with PETA! Let them eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and wash it down with a nice cold cup of water.

* reduce recidivism by providing a deterrent to convicts who are so addicted to meat, theyll go straight just to avoid having to eat healthy "jailhouse" food I believe we have an amendment that covers "cruel and unusual punishment." This policy would never withstand a court challange.

PS, while not an Onion article, nevertheless, it is in the same vein.

Look, I despise PETA. I think they are an insidious bunch of terorists plotting to drive the human race into extinction and they should be treated the same as Al-Qaeda is now. So I am very suspicious of PETA since they are nothing but anti-human communists and deserve nothing in my book.
Thank you.

I am writing on behalf of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) more than 750,000 members ?
That's 50 homo-sap-iens plus 749,950 assorted 'Rats.
On Friday a inmate from Pelican State prison was having a hearing in Crescent City Ca on why he shouldn't be allowed to mix with the other inmates. As he was being led into the court room he slipped his irons and stabbed his defense attorney in the chest with a icepick. Something metal in the lawyers pocket deflected the weapon. STRIKE THREE...

Can you say "Mother of all Prison Riots"?

Vegetarian food may discourage some hopelessly meat-addicted convicts from reoffending. Admittedly, there are probably some inmates who will miss eating flesh, maybe because they see it as "comfort food" or maybe because theyre addicted to the fat or the various chemical, hormone, pesticide, and antibiotic residues in meat. However, as you know, its prison and not Club Med. If inmates dislike going without meat strongly enough, a program like this could further decrease recidivism.THIS IS GREAT STUFF! Feed convicts Tofu. That alone would keep me out of prison...

Doug Anglen, the director of food service of Victor Valley, has observed, "There is a noticeable difference in the personalities of the vegetarian inmates. They smile more, are fully racially integrated, attend religious classes and anger management classes eagerly. Within 10 days, the vegan inmates express improvement in how they feel."Prisoners who go along with the program just happen to be better behaved. What a shock </sarcasm>
Whether or not they eat meat has nothing to do with it.

For once they actually make a decent point .... of course they need to pass out vitamins to prevent their bones from becoming brittle resulting from a vegan diet.

"I have to wonder why meat, which is taken as a sign of wealth and which encourages the diseases of opulence, hmmmmmmmmm... those third world, developing country diseases are what,
better???????Beans, rice, lentils, pasta, nuts, fruit, potatoes, and other vegetables...
Potential here to give a new meaning to "gas chamber."
*NOTE: This guy is addressing this to the New York State Department of Correctional Services... *gulp*. Hasn't he heard of the Attica Prison Riots??????????

The idea has merit. Put meat, dairy products, eggs, sugar, coffee, desserts, tobacco, and anything else the inmates like, on the list of priviledges earned by good behavior.

Lock those PETA nitwits in with the general population so THEY can inform the inmates THEY are going to take away the "MEAT PRIVILEGES" FOR INMATES....I'll bet you'd see some PETA eat some peta, if you know what I mean.
To: mhking
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. I am sure many will dismiss the letter because it's PETA (including me!). However, he is essentially right. What sux is that I know the writer could care less about inmates. They cover up their obsession with animals, by faking concern for humans.

The reason they are taking this initiative is due to the fact they understand it won't be long until they become inmates!
