I'm curious...because im thinking they'll have a REALLY hard time in jail. Sort of makes me glad that they arent given the death penalty and maybe even avoid them from becoming martyr's and instead enjoying torturous prison life with guido and big gay al as their new butt buddies.
What type of prisons are convicted terrorists put in?

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if they actually had *special* prisons... i.e. better than normal criminals. If someone looks this up, let me know
Hmm perhaps your right...im thinking maybe the fbi or some other government agency might want to keep them well and alive in hopes to maybe pump more information out of them. but im thinking if they are put in normal prisons and basically tortured by other inmates, they might be more willing to talk.

Well, that's what we did in Britain for Irish terrorists.

The SuperMax link was kind of amusing-a 1995 speech by Senator Grams which ends up with a rant denouncing the high security at the US Capitol. Bet he regrets those words today.
BTW, I think there is also a federal prison in Indiana or Iowa that is also super-high security. I remember reading an article about it that said in its most secure area there aren't even mattresses-and the beds are concrete slabs jutting out from the wall. Probably reminds these guys of the home caves in Afganistan.
Unfortunately, I think all these high security prisoners are solitary confiement cases, so no chance of Bubba as a roomie.

I cannot beleive these guys were not sentenced to Death. What kind of message are we sending?? Now we have to pay for their upkeep?

Yeah. I found it this morning in my post wake up stupor. I'm sure there are other links out there describing Super Max in greater detail.

I actually do not believe they will allow convicted terrorists in the general prison population either. Too risky for them.

There is. It's the state penitentiary outside of Terre Haute and that's where McVeigh was for quite some time before his execution. It's not that bad place for the maximum security people. They even built a brand new special prison wing for maximum security people like McVeigh so they wouldn't be bothered by general inmates. My brother was in there doing ceilings in the same block as where McVeigh was. He said it was creepy but extremely quiet with basic accomodations.
It's too good a life for mass murderers, I think, judging from the way McVeigh looked before his execution. I think someone who has committed crimes like this should look like they've aged at least 10-20 years before they go down. But he looked just fine. Didn't even lose weight.

They should be put in a Texas state prison with several roommates that are Large, mentally, ill Sex offenders. In a few weeks, they will go from (.) to (o) 
.
This is much worse then death. I think in Super Max they would be too isolated to be passed around and "enjoyed" by the prison population...

They didn't execute them because they don't want martyrs.
You're probably right on this. But still, these people will be symbols for them. Just like Paul was for the early Christians. The damage is already done. I say, make them at least suffer without killing them.
There was a guy who recently escaped from a prison in Russia. His life was so bad that all he wanted to do was escape to an area and drink himself into a stupor for 5 days before they finally found him. He looked absolutely awful and then they carted him back to his cell. That's the way it should be for these guys.

They were not executed because 3 of the 12 jurors voted not to.
The vote had to be unanimous for execution.
The majority wanted them fried though!
