I've been repeating myself, nobody listens to reason.... halal, coming to a public school near you soon (and everywhere else). . pointless.

Maybe we should take a cue from Criminal Minds, and let the pork eat the Muslims.

At the end of the day I just don't care. They're in prison I don't care what they eat. You want bacon? Don't go to jail.

Well, since the leftists cheer the president's decision to ban pork products from our prisons, schools will be next. You can bet on that. Obama will use the "It's for the children" excuse, and all the little leftists will bow and say "Amen!".

Thank God a president can only serve eight consecutive years, otherwise we'd never be rid of him.

This ban has NOTHING to do with finances.

PLEASE.

Who is we? I do not love bacon. Never has bacon touched my mouth. It does not smell good. It is against my religion to eat bacon. I am NOT Muslim. I am CHRISTIAN and part of the 5th largest Christian branch in the world. Same faith as Ben Carson who does not eat pork.

Please have a universe of seats. Not everyone eats bacon.

What's even more unbelievable is that meals have to be prisoner-approved.

There are Christians who do not eat pork as well.

There are other groups such as the Hebrew Israelites who do not eat pork.
