Kind of like the kid that got caned in Asia. When in Rome do as the Romans? They make the laws, and learn to live by them, or move. Simple as that.
No wonder everyone wants to move here. Where the criminal has all the rights.

"No wonder everyone wants to move here. Where the criminal has all the rights."
Fortunately down here, criminals generally still get treated like criminals but we now are blessed with an increasingly noisy group of human rights activists led by an eccentric, unsuccessful lawyer (who just got arrested for beating his wife). They make a big fuss and try to launch lawsuits on behalf of the "victims" every time the police shoot, manhandle or injure a perp; even an escaped and armed convicted murderer. People here half-jokingly refer to them as "the criminal rights activists."

Ah sayuh, Ah sayuh, Why is it not blasphemy to name one's self Muhammad??? http://www.bankersonline.com/tools/n...onventions.pdf
But it IS blasphemy to name a stuffed bear Muhammad!!
By the way, my wife used to call "it" Samson... but I just renamed "it" Muhammad. Ya know! If the mountain won't come...
Mike (sorry) NOT!!!!

Is that because 'it' is powerless when shaved?? 
There are benefits and drawbacks to every type of society. In ours, we have a higher rate of crime, but we can name our pets anything we want. They have less freedom as their religion provides a lot of structure, but they also have a less crime.

Maybe the fact they enforce penalties against criminal's has as much to do with their less crime as their religion. They don't reward criminals like we do here.

Ron,
Yep - I wouldn't mind using a couple of elements of Sharia law. If you know you are going to get a hand chopped off for stealing then chances are you would be a lot less inclined to steal.
Although - these days they would then just go on permanent disability and live off of our taxes for the rest of their lives. 
Bloody hell! We just can't win!
Steve

Steve,
For once we are in total agreement. There just seems to be no way to win. Unless we go to Folsom Prison and sue them for locking us in a cell like that guy did.
