Acid in the face

It looks like two people had acid thrown in there face. What do you do to a person that would do that. Public hanging should be brought back. IMO. Not just that crime others as well. It may be time for a concealed gun permit.

I guess slow death on a pole ala Vlad the Impaler would be fitting. Actually, we could probably take a lot of notes from ol' Vlad.

According to Wikipedia...
Quote:
The atrocities committed by Vlad in the German stories include impaling, torturing, burning, skinning, roasting, and boiling people, feeding people the flesh of their friends or relatives, cutting off limbs, and drowning.... Other methods of punishment included skinning the feet of thieves, then putting salt on them and letting goats lick off the salt. This was a way that Vlad kept his people in order and taught them that stealing would not be tolerated in his lands. No exceptions were made: he punished anyone who broke his laws, whether men or women, no matter the age, religion or social class.

His method of torture was a horse attached to each of the victim's legs as a sharpened stake was gradually forced into the body. Death by impalement was slow and agonizing. Victims sometimes endured for hours or even days.
I suspect Vlad's methods were quite the demotivator as far as crime went.

This is typical of some of the punishments in India or Pakistan. Walking around there its not unusual to see women scarred from the acid walking around.

Absolutely horrendous I would think and only punishment for someone who does that would fit for me is tying them down naked and covered with honey on a fire ant mound. Come back in a few days and see whats left.

Absolutely agree.
No punisment would be too severe for the people responsible for this.

I read of a punishment in a novel a long time ago...

Amputate left leg above knee. Treat the wound. When healed,

Amputate right leg above knee. Treat the wound. When healed,

Amputate left arm above elbow. Treat the wound. When healed,

Amputate right arm above elbow. Treat the wound.

Brutal, but seems fitting.

Great. Instead of being on the look-out for strangers approaching with knives, guns, striking weapons, now I have to be prepared to shoot anyone walking toward me with a cup of liquid.

Its done in moslem countries, usually to end a marriage that is not working out, or to a daughter who is not doing what the Father or family wants her to do. This has been done for years now, just not brought out in the public often.

A lot of "Moslems" in your neighborhood? The latest attack occured in Mesa. The cops don't think this one was random, though. They believe it may be retaliatory.

So what this thread is saying, without actually saying it at all, is that some muslims who see women and less than full human beings are throwing acid in their faces and disfiguring them as punishment for showing their face in public or some other horrendously flagrant violation of sharia law. Right?

Sorry, I'm not much of a CS PC type.

None in my area but then I do not live in Mesa. Mesa has been for years a "Mormon community" and always will be. That said, people of various backgrounds are moving in everywhere.

Remember that the young girl killed in an "honor killing" was run over by her Father in Peoria, a suburb of Phoenix. This as well is a typical moslem action.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

The update doesn't say anything about this wacko being Muslim, either.

I suppose the impalement can start now. She can do it to herself - being the self-reliant sort and all.

This young woman has some very serious issues that require a professional's care and treatment. Very sad for all involved...

Unbelievable. Clearly the funds gathered for her will be returned to those who donated but a new fund to help her get the proper medication and help for the mental scarring that will be present until the day she is alive should be setup.
