And, of course, since you transgressed "god's law," you have sacrificed your right to any mercy or grace or respect? Is that the pulpit from which you sound forth your judgment? If personnel of the jail tried to press their way into his head with greeting cards and such slipped under the cell door, they did violate rights, rights which the State cannot impede without just cause (security of staff, other inmates, the institution), whether those rights were sufficiently trampled on to justify a lawsuit, I don't know.

Yes since we have sinned all of us have no right to any form of mercy or grace from God. God, however, because of his love for us and because of Jesus's death on the cross and ressurection, God gives us his grace and mercy.
i do agree that they should not have been slipping things under his door but i agree with Jshort5 that since he has committed a crime he does forfeit some of his rights.
