Stoned to death
 

Many of you will be aware of the furore in the media about a 43 yr old Iranian woman about to be stoned to death.

I had thought of posting the link but the pictures of past stonings are just too barbaric, and I'll leave that to your individual choice.

Buried up to their chest then stoned. The size of the stones are selected to cause maximum pain without killing too soon.

How can another human being do such a thing? I just can't get my head around the why?

There's sick, and there's SICK.

Yep I totally agree Brian and as a member of Amnesty International it disgusts me that this barbaric act continues. There`s a hell of a lot of public stonings going on around the world that don`t make the press and the majority of these "sentences" are on women.

"If the convicted person manages to free themselves from the hole, the death sentence is commuted."

Isn't Allah the most merciful? Which is why they hang gay men and chop peoples' hands off.

Bunch of savages.
