After 15 years in solitary, convicted terrorist pleads for contact with others
Ramzi Yousef, convicted in the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, asks a judge to move him into a more open prison environment. Some agree his treatment is unconstitutional.
All those things we are told happen to people in supermax apparently do. And Mr. Yousef, nephew of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, doesn't like it.

#5 Add some pigs to his cell. I'm sure they'll get along great. And if you toss in some monkeys, all his relatives will be there.

#6 Some agree his treatment is unconstitutional.

In the Venn Diagram of political thought, those same people articulate that the Constitution is something made up by a bunch of old/dead white men, several of whom owned slaves, and is inappropriate as a basis to rule for government. So what.

#7 "Yes, I am a terrorist, and proud of it," Yousef told Duffy at his January 1998 sentencing. "You are butchers, liars and hypocrites."

Why would even think such pigs and monkeys would listen to you? Go back and read your crayon.

Maybe he should get some conjugal visits from other prisoners. That qualifies as contact, doesn't it? Voluntary or otherwise, contact is contact.
