Mogadishu ;A man convicted of murder,was sentenced to be executed himself,by his victems 16yo son,the sentence was carried out in a public square when the 16yo repeatly stabbed the sentenced in the head and throat,this ruling was declared under Sharia Law.

How unfortunate. I wonder what the guy did.

Wow I cant imagine watching that. I wouldnt know what to do but look away..

These people are nothing but animals. The "sub-human" - who think they have a monopoly on rightousness.

Googs,the guy killed the 16year olds father,oddly enough,during a heated dispute over the 16year olds education..

I saw the pictures... disgusting!

Sharia (Islamic Law) appears to be a barbaric practice.

The punishment of whoever intentionally takes the life of a person is to have his own life taken when not forgiven by the closest relatives of the person he killed. And in this case, the sixteen year old did not forgive his father's killer. If killing him was the only way he was able to achieve that, then he had to do what he had to do.

In the Quran, It says: {…..But if the killer is forgiven by the brother (or the relatives, etc.) of the killed against blood money, then adhering to it with fairness and payment of the blood money, to the heir should be made in fairness. This is an alleviation and a mercy from your Lord. …….} [2:178]

Really, it depends on the family of the victim. If they want the murderer dead, then the execution would be carried out. Regarding the public view, according to Shariah, the execution does not have to be in the publics view.

Well I dont think theres any place in the Western World for that sort of practice,obviously their judicial system dosnt even come close to anything in N.America or Europe...

Capital punishment is common in all sorts of countries. The way they commit it maybe different.

Whatever it is, he won't do it again.

Yeah I mean its so much more civilized here where a complete stranger murders the convicted in cold-blood with a needle or poison gas...

"As of 2006, Idaho and Oklahoma are the only states in which execution by firing squad is still legally available (as back up methods only; both states use lethal injection as their primary methods of execution)"

"At present, only Washington and New Hampshire still retain hanging as an option"

I never asked anyone to be nice to me. Yeah, Captain Obvious is another hat I wear sometimes. :thumbs:

Interesting,when was the last civilian executed by firing squad,antbody know...

John Albert Taylor, on January 26, 1996, in Draper, Utah. He ordered pizzas "with everything," for his last meal. His crime was the rape and strangulation of an 11 year old girl.

In the U.S, the last execution done by firing squad was in 1996 on John Albert Taylor.

Guess I was a little slow.

IM opposed to capital punishment,as I believe its more punishment to spend the rest of your life in jail.with no privledges,like that al Quida guy the other day...
