#1 Stopped eating back on Feb 5... Why not backdate it even further to make your appeal seem more timely. I stopped eating back in 2008. They should give this guy some rope, some country western or blues albums, a tv showing the faces of those he killed and a lot of burbon and let him solve the problem himself.

#2 Faster please. If he offered to be a blood donor, he might move the process along more quickly and actually do something good before he heads for his ultimate reward.

#3 Somebody make sure to sneak him bags of those olestra-laced potato chips. I saw they're still selling them in grocery stores last weekend, seems like the perfect snack for a food-paranoid hunger-striking asshole.

#5 Meh. If you were really serious about toxins, Terry, you'd stop drinking the water. I heard it's fluoridated....

#6 Beyond a certain point, he may have a point. It's a little known prison trick to provide disliked inmates with a diet of nothing but junk food. Fat, sugar and starch, with lots of soda to drink. Little or no exercise, and keep them indoors under fluorescent lights.

In just a few months of that, their health will be shot. They'll gain lots of weight, lose muscle tone and endurance, have a weakened immune system and be prone to infections, have severe constipation, and start to develop lots of other health conditions.

Then you start playing with the thermostat at night, alternating too warm and too cool. With any luck, they'll be dead before the year's out.

#7 ...sounds like it's driving him towards insanity. I got no problem with that.

. . . towards . . .?

Tu3031 - he's long since passed that.

#8 Anyone care to guess the response of the prison officials if this was a muzzie complaining about not Halal enough?

#9 So expect the ACLU or some other worhtless organization to step in and demand he be fed, force fed if needed. and the prison should comply; with 3 inch galvanized pipe as the feeding tube, hydraulically inserted. (choice of insertion point optional)

#10 Comments better than the story. The 54-year-old claims the refined foods he's been forced to eat at the lockup violate his religious beliefs by harming his body... Who would have known he had religious beliefs. He should claim to be a mooselimb. He will get whatever he asks for. What a little pussy. Should have thought about your special dietary needs before you got yourself into supermax. Hey, they call it prison.

#11 "violate his religious beliefs by harming his body"

Remember what you did to get into Supermax, loser?

Guess your "religious beliefs" don't prevent you harming someone else's body....

General Jack D. Ripper: Mandrake, do you realize that in addition to fluoridating water, why, there are studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk... ice cream. Ice cream, Mandrake, children's ice cream.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Lord, Jack.
General Jack D. Ripper: You know when fluoridation first began?
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: I... no, no. I don't, Jack.
General Jack D. Ripper: Nineteen hundred and forty-six. Nineteen forty-six, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Uh, Jack, Jack, listen, tell me, tell me, Jack. When did you first... become... well, develop this theory?
General Jack D. Ripper: Well, I, uh... I... I... first became aware of it, Mandrake, during the physical act of love.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Hmm.
General Jack D. Ripper: Yes, a uh, a profound sense of fatigue... a feeling of emptiness followed. Luckily I... I was able to interpret these feelings correctly. Loss of essence.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Hmm.
General Jack D. Ripper: I can assure you it has not recurred, Mandrake. Women uh... women sense my power and they seek the life essence. I, uh... I do not avoid women, Mandrake.
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: No.
General Jack D. Ripper: But I... I do deny them my essence.

#14 After all that, it would be greatly ironical if it turned out to be really true that there were bad consequences to fluoridation.

#18 He's lucky he's still alive. He should have been given the needle like his partner in crime McVeigh.
