“A Muslim inmate is suing Somerset County Jail, claiming he’s been discriminated against when employees attempted to offer him Kosher meals in place of Halal.”
But the Qur’an says that “the food of the People of the Book is lawful for you and your food is lawful for them” (5:5), which means that Muslims can eat kosher foods and food prepared by Christians. That makes clear that Sherone Long’s lawsuit is just another exercise in Islamic supremacism, attempting to gain special privileges and accommodation for Muslims, in accord with their privileged status in Islamic law.
Also, imagine if Sherone Long were a Nazi, and that Nazis had food laws. In that case, would Somerset County Jail have any obligation to reinforce his ideology?
“Muslim inmate sues Somerset County Jail alleging religious discrimination,” by Nick Muscavage, Bridgewater Courier News, October 5, 2018 (thanks to Paul):
SOMERVILLE – A Muslim inmate is suing Somerset County Jail, claiming he’s been discriminated against when employees attempted to offer him Kosher meals in place of Halal.
Sherone Long, who filed a federal lawsuit in August, is alleging the jail does not offer adequate Islamic services, despite its handbook stating it does.
According to Long’s statement of facts in the lawsuit’s filing papers, in May 2018 he reached out to Deputy Warden Roger Delin concerning the lack of Islamic services.
Long explained to Delin that he had never been afforded the opportunity to pray with an Imam, as the jail’s handbook states, and he was not given Halal meals.
Delin, Long alleged, tried to organize Ramadan a different way than the Muslim religion instructs. In July, Delin submitted his letter of retirement to Sheriff Frank Provenzano.
The jail staff, according to the lawsuit, insisted that Kosher and Halal are the same.
“In honesty, with my experience in this jail, the administration is biased towards Muslims,” Long wrote. “We can’t get prayer rugs, kufees or oils.”
Long is requesting the court waives his fee of filing his lawsuit.
In 2015 he attempted to file a federal lawsuit with the same allegations, but the lawsuit was dismissed shortly after because he did not pay the proper filing fees.
In 2015 lawsuit, Long alleged that Charles O’Neill, the Somerset County Jail warden, deprived Long of his religious rights over a period of 2 to 3 years by not offering Islamic services at the jail.
According to the lawsuit, O’Neill and the jail “offered Christian services every week at the jail, but maliciously and wantonly refused to do the same for the Islamic faith for inmate Long.”
The lawsuit stated that the jail’s handbook indicated Islamic prayer services are held on Friday in a conference room and Taleem services, or Islamic education services, are held on Tuesdays, “but nothing ever takes place on those days.”…

Bacon for breakfast, ham sandwiches for lunch, a pork chop for dinner. Take it or leave it.
Biggest mistake we made was complying with their stupid dietary demands. Thin end of the wedge.
J D S says
When one is imprisoned, in most cases, that person was found guilty and imprisoned for some crime…when that happens the person should loose all rights except…. the right of sleep, food that does not require special handling, the right to see a lawyer and a mister and not receive unusual unwarranted punishment….Any other rights should be at the discretion of the prison authorities.
Of course today most prisons kowtow to the demands of the imprisoned especially if they are Muslim This needs to be changed and immediately and if one is convicted of taking a life then that one should loose his life.
Frank Anderson says
If someone would send a copy of this article to the attorney representing the warden and jail it would probably be appreciated. It could save the city etc. a lot of expense and time. The jail could then file a Motion to Dismiss for Failure to State a Claim upon Which Relief can be Granted, and a Motion for Sanctions under Rule 11 for filing a groundless suit. Attaching evidence in the form of an affidavit (Declaration under Penalty of Perjury) would cause the motion to dismiss to be treated as a Motion for Summary Judgment, forcing the plaintiff to provide a similar statement under oath which could be impeached (destroyed) by evidence of the meaningless nature of oaths by muslims.
In many cases the lawyers defending groundless claims do not know enough from prior reading and research and must start from scratch. That translates into weeks or months of research and bills.
Please consult a currently licensed attorney practicing in your jurisdiction for any legal advice.

Frank, I believe lawyers have all the tools to defeat Islam using the laws already on the books. They need to gain the will to do so. That is the opinion of British lawyer Gavin Boby who uses the laws and by-laws in Britain to stop mosque construction.
Eventually, there will be so many lawsuits, that Muslims will give up and leave the West or drop out of Islam.
Frank Anderson says
Mortimer, lawsuits are not like votes. ONE good suit is all it takes to make the law for future claims. I hope you notice my comments where I try to show where money and effort might be more efficiently applied. islam has a practically unlimited bankroll. We don’t. The currently licensed and practicing attorneys who can and will handle cases against islam are rare and to be treasured. They should not be expected to work for free. And they certainly should not have to pay the litigation expenses of the cases they handle. Each suit or criminal prosecution is one more step that can establish the Substance of a Criminal Conspiracy over the Form of a fake religion to bring the end of all legal protection. I WELCOME anyone who has a different understanding. I might be able to learn something.
mortimer says
“DARURA” is the Sharia doctrine of “NECESSITY”. Muslims can forego any Islamic ruling when necessary and not sin. Darura is the equivalent of the saying, “NO PROBLEM!”
DARURA applies wherever Sharia Law is NOT the law of the land.
Koran 4:28 “Allah wishes to lighten your burden, for man was created weak.”
If a Muslim is hungry, he may eat pork. If meat is not halal, a Muslim may say a special prayer and it magically becomes halal.
If it is inconvenient to pray, he may defer prayer until another time. If a female Muslim needs to swim modestly in the local pool unwatched by males, then she may do so, if there is no other pool. If a Muslim cab driver does not want a working blind guide dog in his cab because Islam considers dogs filthy and because he will need immediately to clean his cab inside and out, he does not have to cleanse it, if it interferes with earning a living.
When the circumstances are difficult and Sharia law is not in force, a Muslim’s burden is lightened. They are obligated to pray and not handle pork, for instance, but if the circumstances are difficult, then the requirements are lightened. This leads to the concept of darura, necessity.
If it is necessary, what is forbidden is permitted. If a Muslim is hungry and there is no halal (Sharia- compliant) food, then he can eat any food.
If a Muslim is where they cannot pray, then the prayer can be done later.
If Sharia law has not been implemented in a place, then a Muslim may also handle pork, for example, with no consequences.
Darura is the easy way for Muslims to turn ‘HARAM’ *magically* into ‘HALAL’ !!!
Frank Anderson says
Mortimer, are you familiar with Maimonides collection of the 613 Mitzvot (plural of mitzvah, good deeds/commandments in the Torah)? He ranked them about 1,000 years ago and number 1 was that All rules bend as necessary for the preservation of life. That might be an interesting parallel.
mortimer says
Yes, Frank, I will not be the only one to assert that MUCH of Islam is calqued from Judaism and then given an Islamic-Arabic twist. Muslim scholars during the early Middle Ages were learning from their neighbors, but eventually the caliphs realized that Islam has nothing to learn from kafirs and shut down the so-called Golden Age of Islam. They continued burning books, one of the favorite past-times of the caliphs and their jihadi death squads.
Frank Anderson says
Mortimer, my former Rabbi, a dear and treasured friend, because furious when I questioned his blind acceptance of the “religion of peace” lie. I did not attend his retirement event. Enough others in the congregation made clear their dislike of questions, indicating it was time to move on.
mortimer says
Thank you, Frank, for sharing this sad story about naivety and tunnel vision.
For such naïve Jews I recommend the following video:
I was Born to Hate Jews
How do devout Muslims born in the West feel about Jews? How do they feel about Western values in general? Kasim Hafeez, who was raised a devout Muslim in England, explains.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCQEmeGfFmY
Frank Anderson says
Mortimer, I have never lost my love for Judaism and Jews. One of my unnumbered Mothers by Choice, who is no longer living, was Jewish. What I learned in their company will always be treasured and guide me to a better life. I have a very strong reason from my experience to believe that God is with me regardless of any other affiliation. There is room enough in the world for all who wish to live in peace.
Like both my adopted and birth families, they told the truth that I was not welcome. “You shall know the truth’ and the truth shall set you free.” “But first it will make you miserable.” (Thomas Jefferson)
Frank Anderson says
Mortimer, from my experience not only would they never watch, they would get angry for making the suggestion. It is better to stay away from such mindless people who are personally ignoring one of the basic teachings of the their religion, “Ask every question repeatedly; Each answer in this world is still contaminated with some element of error and deception while the truth has nothing to fear.” Why would I want to be part of such a “community”? I wish better for them than they seem to wish for themselves. Thank you for the suggestion.

Whenever I see the zebibah, especially a pronounced one like this one, I know we’re dealing with a real Muzzie loon.

Muslims with a big head=bump like that will probably suffer brain damage from headbanging on the floor.
Moreover, a faithful Muslim who says all his prayers daily would recite a prayer CURSING JEWS AND CHRISTIANS at least seventeen times a day, 119 times a week, and over five thousand times a year, and over 300,000 times in a lifetime. That’s a lot of brainwashing for Muslims to HATE JEWS and CHRISTIANS!
Mike Wilder says
Such a holy and pure man, of course the US should bend over backwards to agree to his every request. But one wonders why such a religious man ended up in prison at all… according to the local newspaper, he “has a long criminal history dating back to 1996, mostly for drug convictions of heroin and cocaine. His most recent conviction was for 3 1/2 years for third-degree possession of heroin”.
A model citizen then. One who shouldn’t be in the country in the first place, but very likely he was born there and is an African-American Muslim convert.
FYI says
An African-American convert.
Let’s hope he doesn’t find out about his “prophet” muhammed as it might cause a serious cognitive breakdown.That must be like someone joining the nazi party…only to discover,on further research,that both sides of his family are..Jewish.
Imagine if you joined a cult and after some reading you discovered something really odd about its founder.
Imagine that every time you praise your prophet{pbuh} you are praising the following:-
muhammed:the owner,buyer and seller of …black people Sahih Muslim 3901
muhammed and his black slaves Sahih Bukhari 7263,Sahih Bukhari 6161.
muhammed the mass-murderer {Abu dawud 4390}
“Ahmad ibn Sahnun’s companian said that whoever says the prophet was black is KILLED.
the prophet was not black”
Ash Shifa
mortimer says
FYI, is correct … “it might cause a serious cognitive breakdown”.
This happens to serious Muslims ALL THE TIME, Mr. FYI.
They call it ‘SALAFI BURNOUT’. This year a Muslim practices EVERY LITTLE DETAIL of Islamic law, then he gets BURNT OUT and his faith collapses, then he gets a kafir girl friend and forgets Islam entirely.
35% of Muslims are non-practicing and I suspect they are dropouts. They pretend to be ‘in it’ for the sake of their families. We must change that.
StellaSaidSo says
You are right, Mortimer, there are many MINO’s who are under increasing pressure from their ‘communities’ to conform to orthodoxy, and we need to support their transition to safe, open apostasy. It is not helpful to characterise all Muslims as jihadists or jihad sympathisers. Some of them are on our side. I have attended several mosque protests alongside secular Muslims who reject sharia just as keenly as we ‘infidels’ do.

Muslims most of the black American inmates in Camden county jail are just that. Scared black skinned criminals they don’t even know that the first slave owner was black. They are so ignorant that they call the white man a cracker.When it originated from being brought here and they were cracked with whips. I suggest while they are serving there time they spend it going to the library and learn these things. First they must learn to read and for all the lazy Nigeria take off the ia from Nigeria and you get the real name for them. That’s right they are ignorant people they are so lazy they get translator to go to library.Back to my point they don’t become Muslim until they are in jail they can’t stand on their own.T hey need help that’s why Muslim when they get out they are just ignorant Nigeria’s.They forget the fake faith and return to what they know crime
infidel says
This animal can K-M-A
Frank Anderson says
infidel, the best way IN MY OPINION, to shut this “gentleman” up and to make a meaningful example from him is to destroy him in court. That will take a little effort and some expense. But once done, it will serve to make future cases less frequent, more likely to lose, and more fun to watch. He is filing these cases for amusement, either on his own, or with a lawyer. In either circumstance, whoever signs the pleadings is bound by the rules, particularly Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11. Filing a groundless claim can be a really discouraging experience in a federal court.
Please consult a currently licensed attorney in your jurisdiction for any legal advice.
Maxwell SJ Fenton says
If only they believed in God and truly prayed they could stop pretending to be religious.
WPM says
If you click on to the Bridgewater Courier News article attachment you will see he also sued the county for the “MS” he claimed he developed in jail before the non-Halal food suit .. The county gave him 12,500 dollars in an out of court statement ,without admitting to any guilt for his development of MS after being sent to there jail and or for not giving him proper treatment . A professional grifter sue for everything ,the county will settle out of court to encourage more garbage lawsuits in the future. I wonder if smashing your head on a concrete jail floor 5 times a day could be the reason he developed his so called “MS”?. The state does not want to bother fighting these cases in many states in libtard lands of New Jersey or New York ,I guess they feel it is cheaper to pay these profession grifters off. By the way my wife is from Somerset county a lot of that county in the last 20 years has started a steep economic decline, in my opinion rewarding professional grifters like this one shows were a lot of good taxpayers money is going towards.
WPM says
I am not a lawyer ,but the paying good money for B.S. lawsuits that the states of New Jersey and New York do in out of court settlements only encouragers more parasitic lawfare behavior in my non-lawyer opinion .When states vote in Libtard government officials that have no back bone to push back on hundreds of out of court statements ,it only encourages more B.S. lawsuits. The bill for out of court settlements against New York City is in the 100,s of millions of dollars ,everything from drunks falling down subway stairs ,to felons upset about their menu choice in prison .
Frank Anderson says
WPM, please know that at least 1 lawyer (retired) pretty well shares your opinion. I think those “liberals” who fall all over themselves to pay out taxpayers’ money have plenty of backbone. They are using them to saddle the taxpayers with more debt and less value from government, just as the previous federal administration which DOUBLED the national debt and ran down the military to levels comparable to pre-WWII. They want to destroy this country using every available tactic and device, including stymying law enforcement and crippling debt. While lawyers are supposed to know a few things that non-lawyers don’t; good sense is probably more in the minds of many more non-lawyers than lawyers.
WPM says
Thank you for your reply, the democratic party in my opinion trying to appease parasitic behavior only encourages more parasitic .Islamic is the greatest parasitic political system every been place on mankind. I wish more lawyers like you could find there way into getting elected to office in this country . After witnessing the MSM and mob rules democratic party character assassination attempt on president Trump pick for the supreme court ,I can see now how powerful the left wing truly is. The Democratic Party have lost their collective minds over out PC each other , they have gone from the working class party to the appeasing parasite party in my opinion. Very willing to hand power , and money to converted felons , grifters , communist, Jihads, just to remain in power for a little while longer, selling their own souls cheap..
Frank Anderson says
WPM, please consider my suggestion to study history, particularly German history between WWI and WWII. You will see the same conflict with the same evil people and plans that are being displayed now. I suggest that you start with what I believe to be the most authoritative book on the subject, Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. The current paperback edition is about a thousand pages. Don’t let that bother you. The section that starts at the end of WWI to Hitler becoming Chancellor on January 30, 1933 is about 200 pages. If you read that I predict you will want to read more. It is just like the chaos that Communists hiding behind other labels are striving to promote today. From there many other books will help you see “There is nothing new under the Sun.” These evil people KNOW exactly what they are doing and why.

“In honesty, with my experience in this jail, the administration is biased towards Muslims,” Long wrote. “We can’t get prayer rugs, kufees or oils.”
——————————————————————————————————–
There you have it in his own words. The Muslims already get preferential treatment.
WPM says
Will he next ask for stones to wipe his ass instead of toilet paper ? I hope next time he bangs his head into the prison floor he give himself a fatal concussion .
Frank Anderson says
Then his estate might be able to sue the jail for not padding the floor.
WPM says
By the big mother of a zebibah on his forehead ,I would say damage is already done to his brain. A few more “pray” sessions is brain will be leaking out of his ears.

Sherone Long should learn about ‘THE WHITE MAN’ Mohammed who owned BLACK SLAVES.
MOHAMMED WAS A WHITE MAN ACCORDING TO MORE THAN 31 HADITHS:
Legs were white: Sahih Bukhari 4:56:767; Sahih Muslim 8:3325
Thighs were white: Sahih Bukhari 1:8:367, See Also Sahih Muslim 19.4437

MOHAMMED the “WHITE MAN” owned BLACK SLAVES:
Sahih Bukhari, Volume 9, Book 91, Number 368:
Narrated ‘Umar:
I came and behold, Allah’s Apostle was staying on a Mashroba (attic room) and a black slave of Allah’s Apostle was at the top if its stairs. I said to him, “(Tell the Prophet) that here is ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab (asking for permission to enter).” Then he admitted me. … (cf. Bukhari 3.648, 6.435, 7.119)
Note: It does not say “the black slave of Muhammad” it says “a black slave” which is an indication there were more than one.
Sahih Bukhari, Volume 8, Book 73, Number 182:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
Allah’s Apostle was on a journey and he had a black slave called Anjasha, and he was driving the camels (very fast, and there were women riding on those camels). Allah’s Apostle said, “Waihaka (May Allah be merciful to you), O Anjasha! Drive slowly (the camels) with the glass vessels (women)!”
In addition to the above listed hadiths there are a considerable number of other black slaves mentioned which were owned by `Aisha or some of the companions of Muhammad.
Finally, Sahih Bukhari, Volume 2, Book 15, Number 103:
Narrated ‘Urwa on the authority of ‘Aisha:
On the days of Mina, (11th, 12th, and 13th of Dhul-Hijjah) Abu Bakr came to her while two young girls were beating the tambourine and the Prophet was lying covered with his clothes. Abu Bakr scolded them and the Prophet uncovered his face and said to Abu Bakr, “Leave them, for these days are the days of ‘Id and the days of Mina.” ‘Aisha further said, “Once the Prophet was screening me and I was watching the display of black slaves in the Mosque and (‘Umar) scolded them. The Prophet said, ‘Leave them. O Bani Arfida! (carry on), you are safe (protected)’.”
Mohammed traded 2 black slaves for 1 white slave …
Sahih Muslim, Book 10, Number 3901:
Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah:
There came a slave and pledged allegiance to Allah’s Apostle (peace_be_upon_him) on migration; he (the Prophet) did not know that he was a slave. Then there came his master and demanded him back, whereupon Allah’s Apostle (peace_be_upon_him) said: Sell him to me. And he bought him for two black slaves, and he did not afterwards take allegiance from anyone until he had asked him whether he was a slave (or a free man).
A BLACK MAN WHO FOLLOWS ISLAM IS IGNORANT ABOUT IT.
Frank Anderson says
Mortimer, did you forget to mention the castration of black slaves by muslims? THAT should get somebody’s attention.
WPM says
Mr Long is just another parasite who grab the brass ring of Islam in one of his jail house stays to convert to Islam .I do not doubt he has done little or no reading on what the Koran, or Hadiths say about blacks in general, Islam suits him, a way to get protection , special rights as one serving time behind bars. He can put in his mind that he is the master over non-believers ,one of the best of people ,ready to take back what he should have by force if he is released back into open society. Islam making regular men more violent, already violent men more dangerous by converted to Islam the “religion of peace” gives them a religious mandate to be violent, anti-social ,rapist , thieves , murders , and terrorist.
Valkyrie Ziege says
; Give them “oils”, and food laced with Seconal. By-the-way, someone should remind these self-important Muhammadans that they’re not first-class passangers in an airliner, or a cruise-ship, and this isn’t “Burger King”, “You can’t have it your way”.
Buzz says
Send him back to some chithole Muslin country.
Frank Anderson says
Buzz, an intended honest question: What can be done to keep him from coming back? Look at the number of illegal aliens who are deported multiple times only to come back and kill people? This monster may have citizenship. That makes deportation even harder. I don’t have any good answer. What do you think?
American says
We need to create a citizenship exchange program whereby Muslims and Democrats can easily emigrate abroad to find their happiness. Partner with so-called “friends” in the Muslim world so the Muslims here can easily leave their U.S. citizenship behind in exchange for a new nation’s citizenship in the Muslim world. The Democrats would have the same option, only to socialist paradises like Venezuela. They fill out a one page form to exchange their citizenship and get a free one way ticket. Bye.
Frank Anderson says
American, a really great idea with one problem. They are here to conquer, enslave and kill us. They don’t want to leave for a place that is already miserable. Islam intends nothing but misery in this life to promote willingness to die to get to the pleasures of the afterlife. So their mission is to make the whole world miserable. Leaving any island of joy and liberty does not fulfill their teaching or intent. They are really dangerous versions of “human” monsters.
Mahendra Singh says
Why most Muslim men are so ugly?
Somebody should invent a machine to make the decision based on looks,
and set a minimum score below which Muslims will not be accepted in Europe
and U.S.
