Sentenced to death for just over 2kg Cannabis

^India is not a Muslim majority country, nor is it the country which this article is about.

We are. It's called...generalization. OMG!!!!!! We can't pinpoint whose fault it is. We know that India's people have a law and that the vast majority of them allow this law to stay in power. So don't get all pissy just because people have to deal with generalizing and don't have time to write a book on why none of the 1.18 billion people of India helped this man get off via a riot, had the law in the first place, or at least got rid of it by now.

Fail.
 
At least extremist/dictatorial regimes manage to take a stance on an issue.
Capital Punishment shock effect acts as a major deterrent, human nature aside.

meanwhile in a patchwork fractured Federal system one could be let off free in one jurisdiction or charged with various felonies in the next for the same amount. Felonies ruin lives, nevermind strict Federal/Mandatory Min sentences that hand out serious prison time.

whatev. no one on our side wins in this war.
 
This sentence has NOTHING to do with religion. It has nothing to do with religion at all. This is not done out of accordance with sharia law, it is just how things are in South East Asia. There is no mention of religion whatsoever in the article, yet many of the posts in this thread are about it. It seems to me that people have simply seen the names of the people involved, surmised that they are Muslims, and let their prejudices run wild. Which is a pretty ugly thing.
 
I don't hate muslims per say and i certainly don't hate them anymore then christians who believe in all the radical bullshit that goes with their religion as well. Christianity is no better and many people forget that. I hate muslims who practice this sort of shit and actually believe in it. Those are the ones i fucking hate. I dislike all types of religions intensily wheather it's christianity, judasism, buddism, islam, whatever.

I certainly am not anti-arab or anything by any means like i would venture to say more then a few people on BL are. Not that malaysia is a arab country as only a ignorant idiot would think that but some people automatically equate islam with arabs hence the anti-arab fever that seems to be taking place in north america though to be fair it's only a few ignorant twats whipping this shit up.

I do hate islamic facist states like malaysia with a passion though.
 
laws are reflections of religion


religion is where we get our morals mostly

I am not saying this is always how it is, but to say religion does not play a part whatsoever is not a reality

So it is just a coincidence that many other SEA countries, including the Philippines, Laos, Thailand, Singapore and Vietnam, also routinely execute drag traffickers, despite the fact that they are religiously worlds apart from Malaysia and Indonesia? It is clearly a cultural and moral attitude in that part of the world which is quite independent of religion.

At the risk of derailing this thread entirely, mind if I ask you why you've also lumped buddhism in with a bunch of ostensibly "evil" abrahamic religions?
 
Well marijuana has already been confirmed to cause psychosis to those who say marijuana causes no literal harm, but that's besides the point, this is wrong and stupid. The classification of drugs in almost every country makes no sense, there are drugs categorized as Class A that should be categorized as Class D, there is no science to any of this. The policies regarding drugs have all been created out of misinformation and fear.

Actually, it has not been "confirmed to cause psychosis". That's just bollocks. Stop spouting shit you clearly have no idea about. It's people like you which spread this bullcrap. You'd have been one of the ones claiming cannabis killed brain cells after those monkey experiments back in the 70's.

There has been a tenuous link between development of schizophrenia and excessive cannabis consumption. This link is tenuous, because we cannot prove whether it's simply the sort of people with underlying mental conditions are drawn to the appeals of cannabis, or whether there's something deeper going on.

Worst case scenario, cannabis can exacerbate an undetected underlying condition and bring about full schizophrenia earlier than it might otherwise have shown itself.

Best case scenario, cannabis has NO link to schizophrenia at all.

Cannabis is not harmless, no, and the people that are claiming it is are as ignorant as you are. Please don't go repeating that bullshit you hear from the Government though - there is nothing which shows cannabis causes schizophrenia. Nothing.
