Closing prisons due to low demand

Bad guys needed: Netherlands closes prisons for lack of business

One interesting excerpt: "One idea is that deciminalizing drugs leads to less violent crimes, and that a passive approach works best."

Who'd a thunk it?

That's one way to handle the drug problem. Nice side effect.

Yeah, but it would be bad for business... You know, the detention industry type of business.

I think Saudi's ideas are far better a deterrent

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia — Saudi authorities beheaded and crucified a man convicted of brutally slaying an 11-year-old boy and his father, the Interior Ministry announced.

According to the statement issued by the ministry Friday, shop owner Ahmed al-Anzi molested the boy and then strangled him with a length of rope. He then stabbed the boy's father to death when the man came looking for his son.

He hid both the bodies in his shop, the statement said, adding that al-Anzi threatened police with a knife when they came to arrest him.

Al-Anzi had previously been convicted of sodomy and owning pornographic films, a crime in conservative Saudi Arabia.

Crucifying the headless body in a public place is a way to set an example, according to the kingdom's strict interpretation of Islam. Normally those convicted of rape, murder and drug trafficking in Saudi Arabia are just beheaded.

London-based rights group Amnesty International criticized al-Anzi's execution and crucifixion.

"It is horrific that beheading and crucifixions still happen," said Hassiba Hadj Sahraoui of Amnesty International in a statement Friday.

That's a fantastic method...

Amnesty International can go fly a fruity kite, humans are getting far too mushy, softheaded, and useless. It will lead to more and more chaos unless we as a people harden up a bit...

I'm wit'ya on that... Seems to me that the punishment fits the crime and serves as a heck of a deterrent.

I don't blame them for criticizing what they have done.

GOOD ****ING JOB!!!

Great for prevention an best of all no repeat offenders. I can only imagine how many kids this punishment could have saved here in the US We have so many pedophiles here we can't even incarcerate them all. Only bad thing over there I think if he had done it to a girl it would not have even been a crime .. not sure.

rape is grounds for the beheading, regardless of the gender of the victim

 

[pbghost]

According to an Associated Press count, Friday's execution brought the number to 35 beheading this year in the kingdom. In 2008, 102 people were beheaded.

instead of raising taxes to generate revenue, make it ppv...3 birds with one stone... less p.o.s. on the streets, pretty good deterrent if nothing more, and money maker from the ppv part. a chunk of the proceeds could go to the victims families.
