Eh, maybe. He's being treated as a hero, by his peers at least. I can't imagine he'll be mistreated too badly inside.

They really threw the book at him, eh?

In cases like this it really sucks that you have to uphold the law. I'd hate to have to take a walk in their shoes.
I'm sure many local Muslims will be praying for his sole.
Maybe the time in prison with allow the man to polish his public behavior until he becomes a shining member of society.
I tried.

This might be just the message he needs to pull himself up by his bootstraps.

Given the amount of foreign influence in the government, I'm sure the Iraqi court felt shoehorned.
It's not all bad. I heard that the prison cafeteria serves hushpuppies.

Samira's right, I doubt they'll leave wounds that won't heel.
I think the social structure in prison will give him the support he needs.

He's too straight-laced to appreciate it, though.

With enough public support, this case'll be given the boot.
How the hell do you people do this? It's like every single time there is an awkward news story out come the puns. I can't even think of a single one with planning, much less off of the cuff.

Makes you feel like a real heel, eh?

To be a real Asylum poster, you have to walk the walk.
Anyway, I'm not sure prison is that great for him. Personally, I would've sent him to Boot camp.

This guy's a shoe-in for "Political Dissident of the Year."
Just as Planned.

No, he got 3 years because he didn't pull the pin first.
