Inmates have filed six lawsuits over the Sheriff's Christmas music policy in the last two years. The grievances range from "cruel and unusual punishment" claims to "forcing inmates to participate in religious celebrations." To date, four of the six suits have been dismissed and the Sheriff expects that the remaining two will be dismissed.
Now too much Christmas music will drive anyone crazy, no doubt. But I have a better idea. Why not turn off all the music, the cable tv access and leave them only with books. I know, I know... where is my "Christmas Spirit"? Bah humbug. It doesn't matter what time of the year it is. - wrong is wrong. If you are in prision and the taxpayer is paying your way, be quiet and be glad you are not in prison in Russia.
