Saudi man gets 10 years, 2,000 lashes over atheist tweets

Richard Dawkins and AronRa would not do well in SA.

So what, every time an atheist here posts something anti-religious, he gets a serious tongue lashing.

I don't understand how anyone can side with the Saudis at his point.
I actually think that the King of Saudi Arabia should be put to death. He is pure scum.

Usually only the "fundie" atheists who are just as fucked up as any religious fundie.

Lashes for everyone.

FFS 10,000 lashes is gonna kill the guy no matter how they spread it out so where's the logic in their idiotic sentences? I mean if you want to kill someone why even bother with the public spectacle, unless of course you're population is into that type of thing or the Clerics need it for sexual release and want to ensure that nobody else disrespects their 12 century cult.

Either way they're nothing more than a fucking bunch of troglodytes who should be given a taste of their own medicine.

It's primarily a warning to the people. Also, if you're brought up in a brutal society like that, it's entertainment. And quite frankly if we showed this is the west there'd be lots of people who would watch. Just read what some our our troglodytes post here when they are outraged by some crime somebody has committed.

The logic is they want to keep tight control over their Wasabi-ism both from the moderate side and the extremer side that wants a Saudi caliphate. They've got a tiger by the tail they've been priming with raw meat and now they can't let go. And we helped them all along as long as they keep shipping the crack.
