A Brooklyn College Grad Experiences the Constitution in a Cage

For the past year, a 28-year-old Muslim American student, Sayed Fahad Hashmi—the first person extradited to the United States from Britain to face charges of terrorism—has been held at the Manhattan Correctional Center under conditions of confinement that are the very definition of the Eighth Amendment's prohibition of "cruel and unusual punishment."

Webmaster's Commentary: 

The way the Constitution and Bill of Rights have been eviscerated under this administration's watch (and extreme encouragement of these kinds of activities), if you think what has happened to Sayed Hashmi can't happen to American citizens, I would encourage you to think again.
