Oh. Never mind. We do that, too.

Congratulations - Iran's legal system is now as bad as America's!

I dunno, Kaney - you seem obsessed with linking your every post to dicks and asses. It certainly seems to point to you as being a bit obsessed. As for the pedophilia, you yourself admitted to it and said you were proud of it; do you not remember that?

Magon, I've thought this myself. I hear lethal injection is still pretty painful. Electrocution and firing squad have mostly been phased out, though Utah still offers the firing squad because of a Mormon religious belief about blood needing to be spilled for sins that none of them will quite admit to. Hangings still happen, though with less legitimacy.

This kind of gets into a whole question of the prison system and incarceration versus prevention and rehabilitation for me, so I'll stop there.

GOP Congressional Candidate Friends With "Execution By Stoning" Advocate

Running for a seat in Oregon's 4th District, Congressional candidate Art Robinson has proposed dumping crude oil waste and radioactive waste at sea, and he advocates that children read a racist 19th Century novel (which Robinson prints and sells.)
Then there's the "Biblical stoning" issue...

Arthur Robinson has lots of ties to the Christian Reconstructionist movement, including being friends with leading Christian Reconstructionist theologian Gary North, who has described execution-by-stoning as a "community project," (rocks are cheap, plentiful, and convenient, North argues.) Art Robinson's Christian homeschooling curriculum even features a 51-minute interview with Christian Reconstructionism's intellectual founder, R. J. Rushdoony. So what is Christian Reconstructionism ? Let's start here:

As Walter Olson began his sardonic "Invitation To A Stoning", published in the November 1998 issue of Reason Magazine,

For connoisseurs of surrealism on the American right, it's hard to beat an exchange that appeared about a decade ago in the Heritage Foundation magazine Policy Review. It started when two associates of the Rev. Jerry Falwell wrote an article which criticized Christian Reconstructionism, the influential movement led by theologian Rousas John (R.J.) Rushdoony, for advocating positions that even they as committed fundamentalists found "scary." Among Reconstructionism's highlights, the article cited support for laws "mandating the death penalty for homosexuals and drunkards." The Rev. Rushdoony fired off a letter to the editor complaining that the article had got his followers' views all wrong: They didn't intend to put drunkards to death.
Christian Reconstructionism has come a long way since then.

Gary North is a leading Christian Reconstructionist. As leading authority on Christian Reconstructionism Frederick Clarkson, describes in a Public Eye article titled, Christian Reconstructionism - Theocratic Dominionism Gains Influence,
Epitomizing the Reconstructionist idea of Biblical "warfare" is the centrality of capital punishment under Biblical Law. Doctrinal leaders (notably Rushdoony, North, and Bahnsen) call for the death penalty for a wide range of crimes in addition to such contemporary capital crimes as rape, kidnapping, and murder. Death is also the punishment for apostasy (abandonment of the faith), heresy, blasphemy, witchcraft, astrology, adultery, "sodomy or homosexuality," incest, striking a parent, incorrigible juvenile delinquency, and, in the case of women, "unchastity before marriage."
According to Gary North, women who have abortions should be publicly executed, "along with those who advised them to abort their children."

Art Robinson in 1986 co-authored with Dr. Gary North a book on how to survive nuclear war titled, Fighting Chance: Ten Feet To Survival. The book advocated bringing back the so-called "Duck and Cover" civil defense approach promoted by the US government civil defense film "Duck and Cover" shown in US schools to schoolchildren in the 1950's and 1960's.

As "Invitation To A Stoning" described North's view on, well, stoning,

Reconstructionists provide the most enthusiastic constituency for stoning since the Taliban seized Kabul. "Why stoning?" asks North. "There are many reasons. First, the implements of execution are available to everyone at virtually no cost." Thrift and ubiquity aside, "executions are community projects--not with spectators who watch a professional executioner do `his' duty, but rather with actual participants." You might even say that like square dances or quilting bees, they represent the kind of hands-on neighborliness so often missed in this impersonal era. "That modern Christians never consider the possibility of the reintroduction of stoning for capital crimes," North continues, "indicates how thoroughly humanistic concepts of punishment have influenced the thinking of Christians." And he may be right about that last point, you know.
Gary North is a former Congressional staffer for Texas Congressman Ron Paul (who has endorsed Art Robinson's congressional campaign.) In a November 23, 2002 post at the web site LouRockwell.com, North described how Robinson had purchased an industrial printing press to print hard cover copies of the G. A. Henty boys' novel series:

My friend Art Robinson, a scientist and the publisher of the Access to Energy newsletter, recently bought a used $3 million printing press and support equipment for about three cents on the dollar at an auction. The owner had gone out of business. There were few bidders for that press in a recession year. Robinson uses it to publish a series of over a hundred boys' novels, based on world history, written in the 19th century by G. A. Henty. Robinson had assembled a large mailing list of potential customers who had already bought all of Henty's books on Robinson's Henty CD-ROM for $99 - a terrific deal.

Per the linked video of stoning in Iran, I watched, up to a point.

The video was shot in 1994.

The accused was wrapped in a white sheet,covering his entire body, placed in a pre dug hole, which was then filled in w/ dirt, roughly to the man's waist.

That was about all I needed to watch.

It was noted in the video that there's a proper size for stones to be thrown.

Pebbles are too small, and rocks which may result in death in the 1st or 2nd throw are too big.

Apparently it doesn't matter if you're Randy Johnson or Nolan Ryan, as long as the size of the rock you through is " just right" .

Any doubt that this is a culture stuck in the medieval period of human history, and that the idea of these folks having a nuclear weapon is a really BAD one, just isn't thinking straight.

Riiiiiii-iiiight. The PROPER way to kill them is to strap them to a board and slowly drown them! That's SO much more humane...

I oppose the death penalty, because I have squishy, delicate sensibilities. Its barbaric. But perhaps we can admit different degrees of barbarism, and not trip over ourselves in the rush to turn Iran's brutal Bronze Age practices into a window on our own failings. I don't need a poor Iranian woman to be stoned to put the US in perspective.

We've never sentenced anyone to death by the methods you claim, yet you draw a direct comparison between stoning and water boarding ?

I'll take how we performed the water boarding, every day, & you take the stoning.

Oh but I think you can. You can say that 'we put our citizens to death in a slightly less barbaric fashion' but you can't really, morally get outraged about a system that supports murdering its citizens when you do that as well.

You are correct. It is the media, not the govt.

As for the conspiracy, the MSM elite have more agenda monkeys than the Govt., so that could still be.

As for Iran providing the material, yes and no. Possibly someone arranged for this to point out the barbary, if only because there is a judge involved. Even in a remote region it seems unlikely.

Still and all, I'd say that someone is fishing for a cause for war.
