The humane thing to do would have been to waterboard her. I guess these Muslims are just too barbaric.

Personally, I think the title of this thread is completely misleading. It implies that she is getting 200 lashes for being a victim. She is not. She is getting some of those lashes for being in the car of an unrelated male. She then compounded these problems by trying to get the media to affect the judicial process.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes. Clearly, bitch had it coming.

[/ QUOTE ]

So it was either

a) Being in the car of an unrelated male.

b) Being in the car of an unrelated male.

[/ QUOTE ]

Hey, I'm agreeing with you. Bitch was asking for it.

Should really stone her to death imo.

So it was either

a) ignorance of the law, which is never an excuse.

b) flouting the law.


[/ QUOTE ]

Um, why is "ignorance of the law" not an excuse? I am a Native American living in some reservation somehwere. The government, appealing to some narrow, prudish interest group bans peyote. This doesn't square with my religion, or even my expectations of proper law. I don't have a valid excuse in protesting when the government comes to deal with me in some form or another?

I actually think it is morally "criminal" for example for our tax code to be so complicated that ordinary filers don't know how NOT to be in violation of those laws. A perfect example of moral ignorance.

I don't understand what appeal Islam has to women. Being born into those customs obviously has an effect, but I don't understand why any woman would ever voluntarily apply such a degrading moral system upon themselves.

Is this an attempt to equivocate US actions of water-boarding with Saudi Actions in the story?
