Some people will look for anything in order to start a war. Until our own justice systems are flawless, who are we to tell them how to run theirs?

if a fool were to say: "the sky is blue", should we conclude that the sky is not blue because this man is a fool?
if a murder were to say "killing is wrong"; should his advice be ignored because he is a murderer?
hypocrites can possess correct knowledge, and surely it is wiser to appreciate the knowledge in their words while steadily recognizing the hypocrisy of their actions.
i feel confident in telling the iranian government not to put this girl to death. this has to be a miscarriage of justice. i'd like to hear the reaction in the iranian street. are they happy with this?
i would like to hear the justification to this. assuming this is islamic law, all religion is subject to interpretation, that's why they have the clerics to interpret the law. are the iranian people happy with this interpretation? i'd like to know more.

Are you seriously that fucking stupid to believe that?

In December, the suppression came to
America itself as four Christian men were
charged with three felonies and five misdemeanors
stemming from the
"hate crime" of attempting to
preach at a homosexual street
fair in Philadelphia in October
2004. If convicted, the men
face up to 47 years in prison. A
17-year-old girl is being charged
separately in juvenile court.
You have this bizarre perception of american justice!

You didn't delete your account yet? Anyways, look, I didn't say I agree with what's goin on over there, as a matter of fact I find the decision heinous. I just know people like yourself are gonna use something like this as an example for why we should go invade Iran eventhough it has nothing ot do with that country posing a threat to the US. That way, if things were to go wrong like they did in Iraq, we can claim we were liberating people from injustices like that case. The fact of the matter is, we have no right to tell them how to run their country.
