CHEYENNE -- The Wyoming Department of Corrections says it will allow Muslim inmates at the state penitentiary in Rawlins to time their meals to accommodate their daily prayers.
U.S. District Judge Clarence Brimmer approved an agreement on Wednesday that allows prisoners receiving religious meals to keep their meals in their cells until the next meal is served. It also requires the prison to install a new microwave for inmates that won't be used for pork, which is forbidden to Muslims and members of some other religions.
Stephen Pevar, a lawyer with the ACLU in Connecticut, said Thursday that he credits prison officials for their willingness to make changes to accommodate the inmates.
Congress passed a law in 2000 that was intended to make certain that prisoners could practice their religions in prison unless doing so clearly threatened prison security
America is being overtaken because we didn't guard boarders from foreign religions, as one preacher/prophet said. We are being made into a Muslim State/Country bit by bit, lawsuit by lawsuit...thanks to the ACLU and liberals. Islamic law is coming down the pike, slowly but steadily...as to not alarm anyone. This is so they can accomplish what their ancestors could only dream of...but it's the same dream...an Islamic World.
