Very Serious

I've just seen the most horrific thing and I am just now able to see through the tears to pass this along to you now.  If you have access to Netflix, I suggest that everyone watch "The Stoning of Soraya M."  I've spent the last hour literally bawling over this movie. 

Let me begin by saying that I, from the age of two until I was fourteen, suffered molestation, rape and beatings, but now, I feel so petty that I bewailed my childhood when much more unspeakable crimes are being committed in places like Iran.

Hit the jump...

Sharia Controlled Zones In UK. WTF?!?

Islamic extremists in the UK are implementing, what they call, sharia controlled zones.  I first heard about it from Pat Condell (a video response from Pat is below); now, these radicals have held a press conference to outline what they plan to do, which is force their beliefs upon those who live within these zones, even if you are not a follower of Islam.  In one instance, they claimed that if they saw a person drinking a beer, they would make that person throw the beer down and "take" them to an Islamic center to be educated about the error of their ways.

Prohibited under sharia, if they get their way:
Porn - That's right boys and girls; no more bedroom fun for us!
Gambling - Weekend trips to the casino, or poker nights, go right out the window.  Not cool!
Booze - Um, NO!!!!!!!!!!!  That's medicine, don't you know.
Makeup - Oh, the horror! 
Exposed flesh - That's right! No more shorts, tank tops and peeks of cleavage.  It'll be burkas all the way.
Promiscuity - Yes, I'm married and monogamous, so I don't have to worry about this one, but if I were single, I absolutely reserve the right to enjoy any man, or woman, that I wanted (and who wanted me back), when I wanted.

Yep, no dressing up, fixing our hair, putting on makeup, or a slinky dress; no more going out for a nice evening of gambling, drinking and picking up some stranger at the bar so we can take them up to our room to watch a little porn.  Who the heck do these men think they are?
