I dont know how anyone of you feel, but I feel anyone no matter what their religon is should be able to pray in their own ways. i had no idea that they were in our prison here in Terre Haute. I hope that no one gets mad at me or upset because i feel they should pray in their own ways.

No one should get mad at you or upset with you for thinking that people following a tradition of faith should be allowed, within reason, to pray in their own traditional ways. Unless we're suddenly going to cut sunday service for Christians, too. Either people have the same rights or they have the same lack of rights.

Whats next,should we build them a mosque and install special pluming fixtures so they can wash their feet,this is bs why are we providing special services to criminals anyway,these radicals will look to exploit every possible way to conduct recruitment in their quest to keep up the fight,and the aclu has become the new prostitute on the block selling their services not for law or principle but money !

And chances are if they're falling more deeply into their faith as a result of being in prison there's probably some actual rehabilitation going on which is supposed to be (but often isn't) the point of 'jail.' Be thankful they're falling into religious worship, prayer and community instead of engaging in gang-building, murder, dealing, et cetera.
