Court agrees cops can withhold Bible from inmate

A U.S. court has opened the door to restrictions on religious practices that are not considered “mandatory” by the faith. That’s the concern of the Rutherford Institute, which worked with other faith groups to ask the high court to overturn a lower court’s approval of a prison policy that deprived a Christian inmate of a Bible. Conraad Hoever, held in Florida’s Franklin Correctional Institution, was placed in solitary confinement in 2013 for “disrespecting” a prison guard,

Oh but there's no attack on Christians wtf ever gave you that idea. Losers.

So why exactly should prisoners be guaranteed the ability to practice their religions?

Don't give the guards a hard time.

I'm going to make a new religion where having soft beds, three large meals a day, video games, internet, computers, TV, etc are mandatory for all followers of this religion.

I expect it to become HUGE among assholes.

Then why can't you withhold a Koran from a Guantanamo prisoner?

People lose many of their rights when they go to prison. Has nothing to do with Christianity.

Indeed. Then why do Guantanamo prisoners, even the ones in solitary, get Korans? Wanna bet that the Islamic prisoners are not stripped of their religious texts in the same prisons?

They're not supposed to retaliate by violating a prisoner's rights.

 

[NewsVine_Mariyam]

I'm not sure why the title of this article indicates that the "cops" are the ones depriving this inmate of his bible but I found this paragraph to be very apropos

“At a time when America’s prison population is growing, laws criminalizing the most mundane activities are on the rise, states have a financial incentive to keep private prisons at capacity, and the courts are inclined to side with law enforcement in matters of security, we would do well to keep in mind that whatever treatment is meted out to ‘the least of these’ in our society is no different from how the rest of us will eventually be treated. In the government’s eyes, we are all prisoners of the American police state,” Whitehead wrote.​

Commit a crime in Denmark or Sweden your wish is granted .

Heaven forbid a hardened inmate reads the Bible and finds salvation thru Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.

Foreign prisoners outside of the U.S. have no constitutional rights.

I answered the question within the frame of this thread; which is the jurisdiction of U.S. courts’ ruling prisoners in the U.S. can be denied a book of religious scriptures. This ruling has no effect on non-American citizens held in Gitmo.

Wow, they act like the guy having a Bible is the worst thing that a person can be guilty of.

God bless you always!!!

That isn’t what the Supreme Court says about prisoners in US Custody.

It's not a matter of the Bible being the worse thing, it's a matter of it being the thing that is most important to this inmate in order to deprive him of something cherished to him. Think of it as extra judicial punishment and I'm pretty sure is unconstitutional which I'm sure the judge in this ruling is aware - more extra judicial punishment.
