Afghani Sentenced to Death for Downloading Article on Women and Islam
This is really sick. This type of thinking is what one expects from barbaric uncivilized humans. Not in a modern society. It saddens me that this man is on death row. He doesn't deserve to die. There's really no crime here. This man just downloaded an article on the internet. It's not like he murdered someone.

What is even worse is that this is happening in a country that was propped up and is being supported by the United States.

Excellent point, James. It boggles the mind that such things could be going on in this day and age. And these are just the stories that somehow get a bit of attention. It's probably happening all the time!
