Justice

I was honestly shocked , though I'm not entirely sure why, when I heard the news. 200 lashes for adultery! Never mind that the 19 year old girl was gang raped by 7 men. All that mattered to Saudi justice was that she had the ordasity to be out in public without a male relative. Never mind that this is the 21st century, not biblical times. We have come so far yet women are still nothing more then possessions to so many. When will people simply be people, not a sex or a race?
