Steven Hayes, convicted of killing a mother and two daughters, sued the Department of Correction in August, alleging the preparation practices for kosher meals in the kitchen at the state's highest-security prison do not conform to Jewish dietary laws.
Hayes describes himself in the lawsuit as an Orthodox Jew and says he's been requesting a kosher diet since May 2013. He says he has suffered "almost two years of emotional injury from having to choose between following God and starving or choosing sin to survive."

This is just too bad, they ought to be serving the guy a pork chop every day, bacon for breakfast.

Is bread and water Kosher enough?

He should get a kosher rope.

ACLU's gotten kosher/halal meals for prisoners before, dunno why it isn't happening here. As a one-time religious Jew I can tell you that when the life of the Jew is at risk, what would otherwise be sinful can be set aside. So if eating a non-kosher meal keeps you alive, you eat the non-kosher meal. Because you had no alternative, it isn't considered sinful.

That said, I think he has bigger sin-worries outstanding that breaking kosher dietary laws. Not like breaking kosher restrictions is gonna make or break him. He's done already, body just hasn't stopped twitching yet.

Fuck him, just kill him already and get it over with.

If you murder a mother and two daughters, you lose your humanity.

F*** him and whatever that murderer wants.

And shoot the bastard this time instead of mucking around with all this chemical bullshit. I can't think of an injection that kills faster and more humanely than a bullet.

His crime is not relevant. He is being discriminated against. It doesn't matter if he is locked up for overdue library books or capital murder.

His crime is relevant. A piece of shit like that deserves to eat shit. Anything else is more than he should get. When he made the choice to do what he did, he gave up having a say.

 

[Conservative65]

Since May, 2013. Why is that piece of shit still eating and not put out of his misery?

I don't get the whole hubbub about the drugs used to kill.

I have had several surgeries, and the Verset(SP?) they knock you out with is so strong, if the doc beat you to death with a hammer you would never know it.

Just Verset(SP?) them, and slit their throats.

They will never know.

Oh, so it's okay to discriminate against certain prisoners YOU think are worse than others. Get real. No, his crime is not relevant. Discrimination is a crime, and immoral. If you support it, you are no better than he is.

Murdering INNOCENT people is a crime and one for which whatever freedoms you had you lose. He gave up his ability to have a say about anything when he killed those people. Since you think he still has any say, that makes you as bad, if not worse, than him.

So we can discriminate against killers, but not other people right? Or maybe we should just discriminate against Jews.

I don't care why they are in jail. If they chose to do the action that put them there, they give up those freedoms. They aren't owed a damn thing. That you want to throw the Jew card in shows you've lost. You can't defend your position so you revert to such things. How sad.

Discrimination is discrimination. I don't care if you are a Jew or a Rastafarian. Prisoners do in fact have rights. Rastas for example, are exempt from getting their heads shaved on entry, for religious reasons. You might also consider the fact that many people have been wrongfully convicted as well. They did nothing wrong but still landed in prison.

They have a right to be fed. They don't have a right to be fed what they want.

Whether or not someone is wrongly convicted has nothing to do with this discussion. Many of those in prison claim they didn't do what they were convicted of.

It's religious discrimination. It makes no difference what a person did or didnt do. Discrimination is illegal and immoral.

So is murdering innocent people yet you want the person that did it to have more rights than the innocent people he killed. You're as much of a piece of shit as he is.

I though there was a separation between religion and government. Since his claim is because of religion government money can't be spent on it or is this one of the exceptions you hypocrites support?
