Eliminates the criminal quick smart; and 2. Sends a strong signal to other would be criminals. I am of course concerned that they 'have the right man'. Our legal system is way too soft and cares more about the criminal than it does the victim and the victim's family. Sorry to those who disagree but public executions for crimes like this do 2 things.

Since you seem rather incapable of carrying on a civilized discussion given your coarse and inane style of expressing your opinions, for future communication endeavors; it would most likely behoove you to make an attempt to not look like such an uneducated child when you’re trying to express your opinions.

Their views on females are pretty ridiculous, but I find myself agreeing with their Capital Punishment methods" Ridiculous??? no YOU are ridiculous i guess stoning a woman to death at age 13 for being gang raped is just 'ridulous".. no.. not.. it is BARBARIC some jerk says

They took away their victim's human rights when they violated them the way they did, so why should they be allowed to live and maybe get a chance at getting out of a prison and ruining more innocent lives? I agree that some of Saudi Arabia's reasons for execution/mutalation are stupid - but murderers, rapists and the like should be removed from society before they can encourage others to become like them. At least this country's methods seem to discourage the majority of people from committing such horrible crimes that seem to be so popular here in Britain and in America.

If anything, he was let off easy b/c his death was to quick for the crimes he committed against children. They should've crucified him first, left him out in the sun for a few days to let the animals pick at him and then behead him in a public execution versus just killing him first. While it's a rather barbaric form of punishment...I have to imagine that crime would drop dramatically in the US if we had Capital Punishment akin to the Saudi's crucifixion, stoning, amputation and various other forms of physical punishment.

If the guy's guilty of CHILD RAPE, and MURDER, including a boy's father, dispatch him quickly and cheaply. Blade or bullet, so what. Get on with it... society will move on as though he never existed. BTW for you whiners... he doesn't get a pass because he's gay. It's irrelevant. That kind of bs only happens, sadly, in the 'civilized' world. I'm talking about crimes of malice here.

Instant death -- less painful than lethal injection. Less painful that donating blood at the red cross. The issue is -- was the guy guilty of the crime? One guy was found guilty of five child rapes -- including leaving a 3 year old in the desert to die. Here is clue -- you do that, you deserve to be sliced up BEFORE they cut off your head. I In fact, this punishment probably is really a deterent, while sending punks to prison to be in gangs, is not. We have 2 million people in jail - and if there were room enough, we could have 5 million people in jail. Is it working? We keep doubling our prisons. You tell me if its working. The punks are getting more status in jail. The guy with his head cut off isnt getting a lot of status. And young punks aren't trying to be him. What’s so cruel about it?
