Stonned to death

I received an email from my teacher.

quote:

Hi Guys,

Someone in class asked me to pass this on to you. Please read
it. It's a World Issue, so I think that it's important to know.
Whether you choose to sign is up to you.

Thanks,

Taylor.

Amina Lawal, a 30 year-old Muslim woman, was sentenced to
stoning to death by a Shari'ah court at Bakori in Katsina State in
northern Nigeria. Amina allegedly confessed to having had a
child while divorced. Pregnancy outside of marriage constitutes
sufficient evidence for a woman to be convicted of adultery
according to the new Shari'ah-based penal code for Muslims,
introduced in Katsina State. She will be stoned to death (may
take more than 4 hours) every signature helps please help!!!

PLEASE GO TO OPRAH.COM AND FIND THE ARTICLE ON
AMINA LAWAL (FIFTH ARTICLE DOWN) AND SIGN THE
PETITION TO SAVE HER AND MANY OTHER WOMEN. EVERY
SIGNATURE COUNTS!!!!

thank you very much!!!

P.S. PLEASE pass this on if you can!!!

well all I can say is.. if you would be willing enough to read more about it and to sign the petition to help out the many women that are sentenced to these kinds of deaths..

Thank you

What exactly is 'stoning to death' ?

Julie... I had read that they've already set this woman free. It caused a huge international commotion and the Nigerian government cancelled this trial.... unless it's another woman, but I don't believe they would try do to the very same thing twice... would they?

Stoned to death means.. that A Woman usually that has committed something wrong against her religion.. EX. have sex with a married man or have a baby before marriage. is sentenced to be buried in the dirt so that her head only sticks out of the ground. People from the tribe/community go to her and stone her till she is dead.. as in they take stones and whip it at her head or throw them.

You get a person, dig a hole, bury the person (except the head) and throw stones at his head (even because there's nowhere else to hit).

i thought they stopped doing this like 300 years ago.

It still IS a nice idea, it was nice of you to do so, because if we'll be more prepared the next time something similar happens

Thats what happens when your are part of a religion, either born into bondage, chosen to be part of it, or have nothing better to do.

I think they used to do that in christianity too.

I think stoning to death should be capital punishment

yes, you are right, the Nigerian government has indeed cancelled the trial and they will never ever convict someone to that sentence again

Bleeding to death would take too long, they don't stop once you have enough cuts to bleed to death. They just keep chucking the rocks until your head resembles mashed potatoes.

That's probably the point... decapitation (much less painful) is prescribed for other crimes, so I suppose the pain is intentional in this one
