re: #343 Rustler

Can we leave him on the floor for 10 weeks without assistance? Oh wait Freedom from cruel and unusual punishment is only to protect the guilty not the victims well damn can’t we just go back to an eye for an eye.

I’m trying to think of where I saw it, but some girl in Iran was blinded after her stalker threw acid in her face and then turned himself in to the police. Instead of settling for ‘blood money’ and jail time, the girl requested that he be blinded by acid in his eyes as well. Surprisngly the court upheld her decision.

/guess even a shar’ia court can be right every now and then
