Lashing

A school girl somewhere in Saudi Arabia assaulted a teacher and was sentenced to 90 lashes plus two months in jail for her crime. Lots of people are coming to her defense. People from Amnesty International and other mealy-mouthed, wet-behind-the-ears groups are also clamoring for leniency. What do they want? In China, this girl would have probably been executed. This topless woman too.
