That poor girl! First a vile act was done to her by criminals then her own government punishes her as well. That's just unconscionable!

Nodding, this is why the government is best that governs least... And also why church and state should be kept separate...

The extremism is what's wrong with the place...but it's also what's right about it. It's said that if you were walkin their streets and dropped your wallet by accident, nobody would touch it, and you'd find it exactly where ya dropped it, a week or two later, with every dollar and credit card present and accounted for. It's just not worth the hand they'll take. Child molesters are likely executed...I mean, what's not to like about that? So although I see them as backwards and brutal, their way of life does have it's good points.

Al I would love to see the crime rate go down but having hands and feet littering the streets might be messy If one of my girls was gang raped there would be Mandrakes hanging from my tool shed

No one would argue that a low crime rate is a good thing, but how you get there is the question. Torture such as cutting off hands or pulling out fingernails or 200 lashes by anyone, especially the government just ain't cool IMHO...
