Teacher May Face Flogging

[Lillianne Crasse]

Have you guys seen this news report? It's been out for a few days now, but I'm still kinda shocked at it. The British Ambassador is looking into the matter, but the teacher was found guilty and could face flogging, a fine or jail time for her innocent actions.

We found it quite funny at work.

Taking the whippings or spending three months in a sudanese jail.

I know which one I'd go for.

Anyway she's a dumb scouser and should of known better.

The teacher didn't chose the name, the kids did. They are the ones that should be whipped.

I dressed up as Jesus Christ for Halloween. Give me a break people, if we cannot laugh about religion and make jokes, then you're all gay!

 

[Viggy]

It's the most common name in the world... but may Allah or whoever smite all those who use it to name stuffed animals! :rolleyes:

I don't know about you, but given a choice I'd take the whippings. I mean, would anyone actually choose to spend time in a Sudanese prison?

Poor little terrorists. We can't offend them after all, poor things. They might suffer mental breakdown and dwell in eternal agony for the rest of their life while they blow our troops up.

They aren't terrorists, you know, just extremists.

The difference would be...?

Sudan. Prison. DEATH.

Different words, different meanings.

Both of them want to destroy Western civilization and impose Shir'iah (sp?) law. Personally I don't feel like being treated like cattle and walking around in a black sack all my life.

 

[The Balance]

Different words, different meanings.

Most americans would use these words interchangble because on the news it always says something alon the lines of "Muslim extremists killed X number of soldiers today in a road side bombing" or "Terroists killed X number of soldiers toaday in a road side bombing"

 

[Adamis]

The difference would be...?

One man's terrorist is another man's freedon fighter.

You don't have to kill people to be a extremist. To be a terrorist you do.

 

[Ser Yorick]

Just like Jihad really means "holy war"...... and not "striving".

Agreed. Boring, Insolent Bastards, the lot of em.

Please no intolerance in this thread. Admittedly, it seems a bit silly to me too, but we have to be acceptant of different people’s beliefs. Too often have I known good people to let themselves down by forgetting that their way of doing things is not always the right way.

Well, the verdict is in. She was found guilty today and will get 15 days in jail.
