One thing is for sure, if they don't like it, they can always rid themselves from the world. Less work for the guards, and one less terrorist to worry about.
Okay, so I sound cruel and morbid. But hey, I couldn't resist saying it before either First of Two or Omega took that line.

These days people say if a prisoner doesn't have cable tv and airconditioned cells it's cruel and unusual punishment.
If the terrorists took American soldiers prisoner do you really think they'd care about their comfort? The only reason they would even keep them alive would be for hostages.

Yes. We are treating them a hell of a lot better than they'd treat us if they had the chance.

He's got the right not to go hungry... the meal is his property, and he's got the right to that, too.

I suppose that depends on what you believe the true root cause of the theft of the burger to be.
If it's hunger, real hunger (and for this the thief would have to be unarmed, cause he could pawn the gun for a better price,) then no, absolutely not, ever.
But you'll find that 99 times out of 100, that's NOT the real reason for the theft. That guy didn't need your value meal to survive, or to feed his starving children. He simply WANTED it. Thefts almost NEVER occur out of real need. They occur because the thief is greedy, lazy, mean, and/or rude. I don't have any compassion for that. If we lived in a just universe, those attributes would be deselected by nature. Since nature isn't up to the job, it falls to us.

Yes, because spending the night (or a year, whatever) in jail isn't punishment enough for stealing a meal.
Let it be known: Rob will kill you for $5 worth of food. The man needs to examine himself if he is really prepared to put himself through the agony of taking a life for such a measley sum.
