Britain's Pagan Prisoners Must Be Allowed Magic Wands
Posted by Dave Blount at May 13, 2008 9:01 AM
It isn't just Muslims who qualify as special in British prisons. Pagan inmates must be allowed to keep twigs in their cells to use as magic wands:
Officers have been told to allow prisoners to collect and decorate the twigs which they need for their rituals.
No one seems to have thought of the havoc that will ensue if the pagans wave their magic wands and make all the doors come unlocked — or the more likely scenario of a magic wand ending up in a guard's eye.
