BUDDHIST PRISONER SUES OVER MEAT.  just more proof how screwed up things are.

I caught this short blurb and have the need to share. As always.  Possibly my only post for today.

The European Court of Human Rights has ordered the Polish prison service to pay a Buddhist prisoner $3,500 in compensation for failing to provide him with vegetarian meals.
In its ruling, the Strasbourg based court said that by serving meat with his meals, the prison service had violated the religious freedom of Janusz Jakobski, a convicted rapist.
The prison service says that Jakobski, a convert, had previously claimed to be a devout Roman Catholic who fought to have a cross in his cell.

Does anyone besides my brilliant self get the feeling this guy is playing the system?
I mean, it isn’t out in the open obvious, is it? One would have to be a rocket scientist like me to pick up on that cleverly hidden fact.

Hey, the guy is a rapist. Period. He shouldn’t have any rights whatever. And by the way, there was an article recently, no more then a line or two actually so not even an article, wherein it claimed that in some interviews done with prisoners on the subject of rights, the inmates are laughing themselves silly at what they can get away with and how easy it is to get officialdom to “jump through human rights hoops.”

So lets hear it for the European court and the marvelous systems that dispense hilarity for criminals everywhere, and shed a tear for ‘justice’ which apparently has gotten lost in the shuffle.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
