In Pakistan -- you know, our ally in the War on Terror -- a Christian minister was attacked and set on fire for distributing Christian pamphlets ... to Christians.

Mo can't stand competition.
Back to the woman in Sudan. We hear the phrase "rule of thumb." It comes from the ancient practice restricting the diameter of a switch or stick to the thickness of a man's thumb when you beat your donkey, your wife or your (other) slaves. Otherwise, maiming occurs, reducing the punished's value to the collective.
The whip in the video seems to be in compliance, and the punishment was all government-legal.
If the woman had tried to flee, or a friend or relative tried to intervene, anyone sheltering her would have gotten even WORSE punishment. A snitch culture.
Hey, weren't we just talking about...?
