      Oh you guys are the bomb! I've totally changed my mind about this thread...this is one of the all time greats! The levels of absurdity are....sublime.
      You do realize that those were digs at Cali's ideas about morally uplifting those "degenerates" through teh Jesus, right?

        Oh all the recent junk yeah yeah, sure sure.

        I was more referring to how deep and serious you proponents of this "idea" got.....

        ....while talking about the directional facing of.....

        ......a toilet.

        How you type that stuff with a straight face is beyond me, but please...MORE!

          It's not about the direction of a toilet, it's about Cali's blatant racism and hatred of muslims.

            Yeah, that's what it's about for you....I'm focusing on the dire seriousness of toilet set directional facings tho.

            You guys carry on tho....I'm reading around it to get to the IMPORTANT stuff.

              What I find amusing is that some people have such a vociferous objection to making prisons slightly more accomadating to prisonners' religious beliefs when it doesn't cost any money.

              Well, as long as said religion isn't Christianity, in which case extra money needs to allocated to morally uplift the "degenerates."

                I agree it wasn't worth a thread to discuss. Cali is hilarious like that.

                    I find it equally amusing that it's even being DISCUSSED.

                    a) I highly doubt that toilet seat facing is pivotal to their faith

                    b) I highly doubt they ever gave it much consideration outside "the big house"

                    c) There are other solutions at hand besides modifying the existing building plans (which carries associated costs, btw...but those costs aren't mentioned)

                    d) If these people will (or run the risk of) getting violent over such trivialities, then clearly, they're in the right place, and they need to remain there....for a really long time.

                    I could go on, but why? I'll just read the latest round of nonsense instead!

                      I can't wait til he clarifies that White Christians don't commit crimes.

                        No one said that they're getting violent, or that the toilet is pivotal to their fate. These are, again, strawmen. What happened is that the prisonners' representatives made certain suggestions to the warden to make the prison more accomodating to the prisonners' beliefs. This was one of them. And it made a trivial difference in the cost of the refurbishment.

                        I find it amazing that anyone could possibly have an objection to this. This is totally trivial. And it's not worth discussion.

                        I'm just here to laugh at Cali.

                        (which carries associated costs, btw...but those costs aren't mentioned)
                        That there is an assumption that you couldn't possibly have gotten from the BBC article.
