Just one? You could get all of his gear but an acoustic guitar with that commodity. Humble bastard.

Egyptian court sentences four year old to life imprisonment for murder

Apparently he was one year old at the time of the offences.

And no right to appeal. Absolute insanity.

I don't think that's any more absurd than America incarcerating millions (millions??? I don't really know) for marijuana.

Goofle 02-21-2016 09:01 PM

It's definitely a lot more absurd.

Frownland 02-21-2016 09:09 PM

Yep.

Not to mention increasingly infrequent in the US as more and more states legalize.

In Islamic countries, sure

OccultHawk 02-21-2016 09:39 PM

In both cases human life is being wasted and people are being punished for no valid reason. In both cases, they're just going by the book and following the law.

I don't think being an adult and knowing about a law makes being punished for doing something good (distributing marijuana) less absurd.
