UK nantional faceing death penalty in the UAE

[Lucy Chambers]

All actions have consequences. Maybe they measured the risk of getting caught a little differently to someone with another opinion of the facts. The arrogance of 'I wont get caught' often skews rational thinking.

Anyway I wouldn't agree with someone being sentenced to any kind of death for something like this though (although rape/murder are different imo)

Nor me. If someone messes up with drugs they should be punished and rehabilitated. Where humanly possible.

To err is human, to forgive divine no?

i know ur all thinking they where selling it

but 20g well on hoildays between too ya personal use

its not that much like, even the garda let u off with that as longs as its in one bag and u have no signs of dealing
if u admit to having it they often can just fine u,

and its cheaper in higher weights,


now there retards lookin for it in those country esp of randomers, but its extermely harsh esp when its like entrapment they call u out on the streets, south east asia its brutel for it,
when i there they would only sell u oz's for fuck all and u just gotta walk on by,

tough love, Stephanie.
i would be concerned at the disparity between here and there,
perhaps UAE need to think about it?

They are a sovereign nation, and they get to set their own laws. As a visitor to their country, we need to respect their laws.

That is not to say that I'd agree with their laws, but.

For comparison : Person comes to Ireland and lets say immolates his wife for adultery. That is an accepted custom in his own country.

Do you think he should deserve leniency because in his own country he would not be prosecuted (or even persecuted !!),

or do you think the Law of the Land (Ireland) should apply and he should be up for murder ??

well i have to say, compared to those stupid parts of the world,
Ireland is becoming enlightened on the illicit drug issue.

just last week, two men who were caught with 50 million of heroin
got 8 yrs each (minimum tariff was 10yrs). the judge exclaimed 'they
were trying to save their bacon' (from a business loss previously).
