Observant Muslims and Jews are forbidden to eat pork, and
the prison system has long made accommodations for them by providing
alternatives to pork and halal and kosher foods. Ross declined to say whether
there has been an increase in Muslim or Jewish inmates in recent years and
whether that may have factored into the survey responses.
Most prisons in the world say you're lucky to be eating. Period! Don't want to eat, then that's on you. There are no "religious exemptions". Try a Mexican prison, if you don't like it in the US. The US is famous for its mollycoddling of prisoners. Were so rich, even our dregs of society get preferential treatment.
Way I figure it, you eat what's there, or starve. Prison is not for the picky. But, this interpretation of what constitutes "cruel and unusual" has gotten out of hand. K don't see a Muslim having to eat pork as such. Live on Jello and canned corn , then.
Apparently no one going on and on about budget has actually read the article....where they mention that the cost of pork has gone up, thus this saves money.
And no its not about the islamization of America. What nonsense.

just like oil, the price of pork goes up and down. I do not see the feds stop using oil anytime soon.
beef, and corn also goes up and down too, corn is worth more than pork is with all the alchohol plants in use, I do not see the feds getting rid of corn.

Seriously? You have no sense of humor.
People who have no regard for the laws of our society can also disregard the laws of their culture. If you want to be free, don't go to jail. Jail is the opposite of free. BTW, I am Jewish.
