Saudi Arabia sentences maid to death by stoning for adultery - but the man she slept...
Daily Mail ^ | 11/28/15 | Sophie Jane Evans

A married woman has been sentenced to death by stoning in Saudi Arabia after admitting to adultery - while the man she had sex with has escaped with a punishment of 100 lashes.

The 45-year-old Sri Lankan woman who had worked as a maid in Riyadh since 2013, and her partner, also a migrant from the island nation, were both convicted of adultery in August.

However, their sentences were very different. 

While the woman was told by a Sharia court she would be pelted with stones until she died for cheating on her husband, her lover was handed only lashes - because he was single at the time.

Technically, she’s guilty of adultery, he’s guilty of fornication....

She was married and he was not. According to the article that was the distinction, more than their sexes, that determined the severity of their sentences. I am no fan of the Islam, but the distinction is just. I personally believe his crime was equal to hers for he took from her husband what was his alone, she violated the trust of her husband and cuckolded him; any children that she bore would be suspect. Islam is known for its brutality, but even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every now and then.

America would be a better place if we protected marriage and criminalized adultery. I am not opposed to stoning Bill Clinton and having Monica Lewinski face the lash. Democrats have the sheeple convinced adultery "is just sex", but really it is about protecting the family which is the foundation of society. Adultery (the sex act outside of marriage with at least one party married)is not a private matter between two adults, it is a criminal matter between two families. If its about equality then stone Monica too.

There is no personal responsibility in Islam. Everything is someone else's fault.

Which makes it PERFECT for the official religion of the 'RAT Party.

I am not opposed to stoning Bill Clinton

Far too light a sentence...

Make him have to have sex with Hillary everyday...

All kidding aside, he should be in prison for his sex island pedophilia with young girls...

What does her husband say?

Was he the accuser?

Will her be present as his wife's sentence is carried out?

Will he participate?

The sentence of adultry is also used when the woman is single and the man married. The man’s sentence usually doesn’t change.

Wahhabi Islam - the cheerleader for Sharia, radical imams and mosques and everything that is wrong with Islam.

I know. Liberalism is just filled with hypocrisy. It’s just mind boggling.

I think the hard left, being America haters, probably believe in the proverb: “My enemies enemy is my friend”. Muzzies hate America, they hate America, it gives them a common bond.

Liberalism, the ideology of self destruction.

Obviously the woman got the s----y end of the stick here but 100 lashes ain't no walk in the park either.

These stupid libs keep trying to import these cavemen into the "world" and they are going to wind up being the first casualties if they ever get their way.

“There is no personal responsibility in Islam. Everything is someone else’s fault. “

That statement sums up islam perfectly. It would make a great line for bumper stickers.

The Saudi’s are the beginning of a lot of this moslem garbage. We need to put the “royal” family in the dirt.

All Islam is antithetical to western civilization.
Islam demands its adherents to see that Islam reigns supreme.
Everyone must submit, convert or die.
It’s in their book.
Mad Mo made it so.
