Islam Conversion in U.S. Prisons
Wikipedia ^ | December, 2010 | J. Michael Waller

Posted on 11/29/2015 2:16:09 PM PST by Foundahardheadedwoman

In addition to immigration, the state, federal and local prisons of the United States may be a contributor to the growth of Islam in the United States. J. Michael Waller claims that Muslim inmates comprise 17-20% of the prison population in New York, or roughly 350,000 inmates in 2003. He also claims that 80% of the prisoners who "find faith" while in prison convert to Islam.[1] These converted inmates are mostly African American, with a small but growing Hispanic minority.[2] Waller also asserts that many converts are radicalized by outside Islamist groups linked to terrorism, but other experts suggest that when radicalization does occur it has little to no connection with these outside interests.

Simple solution for President Trump: have Bureau of Prisons de-certify every Islamic imam as linked to Hamas, Muslim Brotherhood or Wahabbi extremism. That accounts for 96.5% of Imams worldwide. Then never “get around to” replacing them for the rest of the term(s). Also restrict Muslim groups and assemblies inside prison as “gang activity.” This would reduce conversions in Fed. prisons by at least 80%.

I don’t understand the appeal of Islam. From what I see you have to have the mindset of a robot.

Conversion. Ever wonder why the rabble rousers are usually black that are leading the current college revolts? I don’t.

it’s conversion. I believe I read some time back that the prison chaplain system is run by muzzies.

and now we know why odumbo wants to throw open the prison gates.

That and Prislam converts get halal food, free worship time and the protection of their Muslim “brethren”.

because alot of the people that become muslim need discipline in their lives and that religion provides it. It’s like being part of a gang.

I guess for guys, there’s some advantage. but for women - I can’t understand the draw. Took a comparative elision course in ugh school eons ago. Couldn’t see why any woman would join Islam even back then

Ain’t a religion. It’s a Satanic political ideology, a cult for the perpetually aggrieved that can justify horrific acts in its name.

5 pullers of islammer:
1. revenge
2. spousal abuse
3. child abuse
4. blood
5. brutality

No wonder islammer goes over big in prison. The clientele are all over sacraments like those.

The so called “conversions to Islam are really conversions to “The Nation Of Islam.”

islam is just a gang with a little mysticism thrown in for spice. People who are drawn to it feel more secure being a part of something even though they know they have to subjugate themselves to another’s complete control. It’s not for individualists.

In other words it’s perfect for the rank~n~file melanin-enriched prison set. The fact that they are free to abuse females is simply a bonus to them.

Charles Colson warned about Islam conversions decades ago when he was touring prisons preaching Christianity.

You are dead on and the added benefit for Zero is the increase in all types of crime.
