We're taking bets that getting stoned for sex isn't what you think it is...

In an Islamic Nigerian court this week two women were sentenced to death by stoning for having sex out of wedlock. The two men whom the women had sex with were acquitted for lack of evidence. Now first of all, let me say that I do not condone sex before marriage. It happens and has pretty much become part of the norm in the United States. I understand with Islamic law things are a lot different than here and each country has its own beliefs. All this said don't you see something wrong here.

The lack of evidence thing against the men is ridiculous. Both women got pregnant by the men they slept with. What more evidence do they need? How about a R. Kelly type video? Wait that didn't work against him. How about a higher quality video like Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee's? The discrepancies on how we treat women in the rest of the world blows me away. These guys are getting off with out any consequences. LITERALLY!!! (see my joke there?)

Despite all the problems that they rest of the world has with the US I think that we do a much better job of treating women. We are not perfect by any means, but we are at least striving to be better. Hopefully that day will come where men will be stoned just like the women.

PS. P McT I do think that we should stone Yankee fans for spouting off at the mouth when they really have nothing good to say. :) (See a comment two posts down)
