No more bacon for convicts

I agree with Duane David, let's get rid of bacon in Canadian prisons...
A Muslim inmate has won $2,000 and a partial human rights victory over a Correctional Service of Canada policy not to replace bacon with a halal diet for Islam-worshipping cons.

Duane David, who is serving time in Kingston's Joyceville Institution for an unknown crime, had complained to the Canadian Human Rights Commission that his rights were being violated as the prison failed to offer a halal replacement for bacon served to inmates with breakfast every Wednesday.
I'm sure all his health-conscious buddies out at the weight-pile will be anxious to support Duane in his crusade... ah... campaign here.

And bacon's just a start... let's ban televisions and computers in prison as well.

We just want these poor boys to be comfortable.
