Tip of the Day: Thieves and Islamic Law

[fishweewee]

I'm all for it.

Under the sharia, repeated theft is punishable by amputation of the right hand, administered under anesthetic...if the thief repents and makes restitution before the case is brought before a judge, the punishment can be reduced; furthermore, the victim can demand recompense rather than punishment or can grant a pardon...Aggravated theft can be punished by cross-amputation of a hand and a foot.

How bout all those 5 cent cans you stole from the homeless last year at the shoreline cleanup, Ben.

We're havin another cleanup in a couple of weeks (Apr 16) if your itching to get out of the house.
