Crime & Federalism

Dubai authorities have sentenced a man to four years in prison for having - literally - a grain of marijuana stuck underneath his shoes.  Be careful where you step in Dubai.  (Via.)  I wonder how much prison time a person with gum stuck under his shoe gets.

Yeah, yeah, I know: Islam is really a religion of love.  It just so happens that every country under Islamic rule is a tyranny.  It's only a coincidence that a number of practitioners of Islam have a fancy for blowing up buildings.   

That's an absolute coincidence that has nothing to do with Islam.

I am still waiting for the "loving" Muslims in America (after every terrorist attack, we are told we have hundreds-of-thousands living in America) to denounce sentencing a father of three to prison for having a speck of marijuana stuck to his shoe.

Something tells me I'll be waiting a long time for this outpouring of love.
