VICTORVILLE, Calif. (AP) -- John Walker Lindh, who is serving a 20-year sentence for helping the Taliban, may have been attacked by one or more white supremacists at a federal prison in this desert community northeast of Los Angeles, it was reported Thursday.

What a sad commentary that a jackass traitor can't serve his time in peace.

Maybe that's how he got roughed up. Someone was getting their 'piece'.

Am I sorry for John Walker Lindh? No.
Do I think he got a stiff enough scentence? No. In fact the only scentence that would be appropriate would be to leave him in the Afghan prison where he was found so the Northern Alliance could execute him like the dog he is.

However our courts have spoken, and they have scentenced this man to 20 years in an American prison.

Case closed.

To discuss rape, and congratulate inmates for partaking in a violent assault is wrong, and it is that simple. When we begin discussing things like this we lower our self to the same level as the anti-American crowd. It is devisive, and unnecessary.

I said maybe that's how he got roughed up, and I didn't congratulate anyone. Perhaps you need to take a reading course. My posts were mild to many, yet you single mine out. WHY??????

Get over yourself . You will see many wonderful things .

Lindh attorneys requested for him to be put in the general prison population!

What maroons..

I agree. I figured he would be in PC his whole term. He still might.

[Mark17]

Semd this POS to Pelican Bay Prison for the rest of his life.

Pelican bay=State prison. Victorville=Federal prison.

I hope they give the rotten SOB a shiv in the back. I won't cry him a river when it happens. ;-)

I'm sure that for the right amount money an arrangement could be worked out.

By the way, I know so little about this...what does "medium security" prison mean?

It means that the inmates, through a classification process, are deemed to be less dangerous than others, so they have less restrictions. Really dangerous ones are placed in higher security joints, and all that means, is that there are far more controls and restrictions put on them. Some are even locked up virtually 24/7.

Report: Lindh attacked by jail inmates.

Group of White Supremacists, driving SUV's, smoking cigarettes, carrying handguns, eating meat, and wishing they were loggers.
(can't the news ever get it right?)

Maybe it isn't very nice to wish someone raped or murdered, but consider this Lindh thing as what goes around comes around. I have known my fair share of people that have done time, and there are things that convicts will not tolerate. You can have a guy doing life for murder that thinks a guy like Lindh is the biggest scumbag in the world. Inmates are not going to put up with any of those guys sharing their space. I think Lindh will eventually be killed if he isn't moved, as would any Taliban supporter. Just like Dahmer. Inmates also target child molesters. To them, that is the worst crime of all, no matter what they themselves have done. They call molesters "skinners" in jail, and they will be roughed up or killed just like Lindh and his ilk. I daresay Lindh and others absolutely deserve that and more.

"At the request of his attorneys, Walker Lindh was placed in the general population in February and was working as an orderly cleaning indoors where guards could keep him under close scrutiny for his safety"

---

He was the one who asked to be placed in the general population. Sounds like the popped his cherry! He might need to be placed back in isolation "for his safety".

LOL, you bad! you bad!

(can't the news ever get it right?)

Not in my lifetime, I am sure.

I can live with that. It's Hillary's("The Bride of Satan")fault!
