Wynn said the prisoners who throw their feces are mentally ill and should get counseling.I agree. They are mentally ill, and should be medicated with copper-jacketed lead, delivered by high-speed intracranial injection.

What they dont tell you,and Im sure Ms. Wynne is aware, is what they did to get into prison in the first place.

"Absolutely. The loaf is using food as punishment," Wynn said. No, Jennifer, punishment would be withholding all food and starving them to death. They could live a long, vicious life on the loaf. It just wouldn't be any fun for them.
"They throw feces. They spit it out of their mouths," said Courtney Bennett, a New York corrections officer.
I would love to see this happen to you, Jennifer. You deserve it.

"When you come across inmates who are living on bread and water in solitary confinement, you know it's terrible," said Wynn.No, you stupid woman. It's the criminals in solitary confinement that are terrible.

Jennifer Wynn is a good example of someone who contributes nothing of value to society. Pure fat in the body politic.
Time to go on a diet.

"Wynn said the prisoners who throw their feces are mentally ill and should get counseling."
me thinks ms. wynn is mentally ill and should get counseling! This whole story makes me ill. they are suing because they are only fed this 'loaf' when they act up? they say it's cruel and unusual punishment?
i think they're lucky to live in America where prisoners get better treatment than homeless people who sometimes don't eat for days, i'd like to shove this 'loaf' down their throats for being so damn arrogant.....arrrg.

...copper-jacketed lead, delivered by high-speed intracranial injection I believe the proper medical term is "ballistic infusion." As in "remote ballistic infusion of copper-jacketed lead."

I feed my dog IAMS. Digests more and poops less. Hopefully these loaves are low-ash. Hey, if they're going to throw poop, make sure they have less to throw.

"The loaf is using food as punishment," Wynn said. Food as punishment? Have the food service company that feeds the college students in my town do the food at that prison, and I'll show you cruel and unusual (and unidentifiable) punishment.

Let Them Eat Cake : Prisoners Have a Beef With the Loaf Probably not the loaf they were worried about when they were sentenced...
To: ZGuy
Millions of people in this world would be very thankful for that loaf. A murderer fighting the guard can't be given a healthy meal because it doesn't taste just the way he would like it? That is cruel and unusual punishment to society.
To: ZGuy
Why not serve all the prisoners bean and rice gruel with carrots, an apple and a cup of milk. One meal, cheap, simple, easy to prepare, and healthier than what 90% of Americans eat.If they misbehave, take away the gruel until they agree to cooperate. If they choose not to eat, that is their right.
To: ZGuy
The way to solve our prison problem is with segregation and taking away weights. Let prisoners get weak and flabby as opposed to ripped.:
Segregate race and age. Segregate by mentality. Segregate by size. Don't put first time offenders with repeat offenders. Put passive prisoners together and aggressive prisoners together. Keep people who made a mistake in life away from the nuts and evil ones.

Stay out of prison, choose your own menu. Simple.
