I'm kind of split on this issue. What do you think?

When will these deranged animals get thrown into the dustbins of human history?

Making kids watch beheadings? Are they crazy?!!

The first one I watched shocked me so much, it was hard to sleep at night sometimes. Now imagine what it could do to an 8-year old, besides scarring him/her for life emotionally.

Do they discuss these kinds of topics on the Saudi version of Oprah?

Are you serious? If you have to ask, you need psychological counseling...and you don't deserve to be in any position of responsibility involving children.
Sending up dreadful inquiries like yours really ought to be prohibitted.

Maybe it's better to just have the children stay home and watch their father beat their mother regularly.

This way the boys learn non lethal battering tachniques and girls learn submission. /s/.

After watching Arab TV covering terrorist bombings and promoting jihad, can watching beheadings possibly worsen the mix for these kids?

The religion of peace is overdue for a reformation.

Should Kids Be Allowed To Watch Beheadings?

Only if they are using contraceptives.

What's watching a beheading going to do to a kid who is raised in that perverted culture? Is everything else sane there except this one thing? No and NO. Beating women is ok; cutting off limbs; gang rapes; burning Christians' homes; bestiality. What is a little beheading on top of all the other stuff they are living?

It's too brutally horrible for anyone to see.

EDUCATORS and religious scholars are mostly against letting children watch Shariah court verdicts like beheading, stoning to death, amputation or lashing, a report said Sunday. .

In fn credible.

What do you think?

No split here. As long as any society imposes public execution/amputation/torture upon children, that society will reap the horrific implications thereof. And export the results to America. It should not be very difficult to condemn such behavior. Any human being that finds themselves in a conundrum regarding cultivating barbarism within their own society, or even any other human society; might do well with some moral introspection. IMHO

I watched 2 of them, and still can see it. Later, after the war started, I had my then 12 year old nephew ask me a question about good v. evil. So, I mentioned, without details, that situation. He got really quiet, and thoughtful, then asked, why would they do that?

Such a simple question, and I couldn't answer, 'cept, There is evil in the world, and you must be able to differentiate it from good.

What do you think?

Children should only be allowed to watch the execution of children.

Not that I am in favor of beheadings, and I am as much against muslim culture as anyone, but...

How long ago was it that the last public hanging took place in the US? There was a time when these were done in the town square, for all to watch. Did they check ID to see who was old enough to see the show?

How about the last lynching? Some of these were pretty public affairs, and I don't think they kept kids away.

Just off the top of my head I would guess that there were public lynchings into the 1950s and maybe even later.

My point is that less than 50 years ago the US engaged in much the same behavior.

should kids be allowed to strap bombs around their chests while going to the market?

I've seen lots of violent movies, play violent video games and all of the usual...quite frankly those videos make me want to vomit, I've barely watched nick bergs all the way through the Chechen one I cannot even make it through, its sick. I actually think it would traumatize a young child. After seeing Berg struggle for life, I know Islam is pure evil, and Allah is Lucifer.

Depends on their age. I think at around 16, the beheadings might be allowed with appropriate permission and the right educational context. I don't think we need to show it to five year olds.

Exposing children to violent and gruesome scenes may make them aggressive and effect their personality, he said.



he has that exactly wrong, IMO, plant that image in their minds of what will happen to them if they even think about commiting a crime


we need to go back to public hangings here, show them the real side to crime and punishment

Children under 17 must be accompanied to a beheading by an adult. PG beheadings and stonings are OK for the younger crowd, however. They come without the R-rated language.
