    AroundTheWorld really needs to have his thread starting privileges taken away...He's basically admitted to being a troll.

    I haven't been on these boards for very long but certainly long enough to see the large volume of threads by AroundTheWorld sharing stories and examples of Islamic extremism. Granted, I don't really read though them, as I am not interested in the promotion of such stories by someone who clearly is possessed by a tunnelvision-like interest of this disgusting subculture--an admiration almost it seems.

    Again, I don't really read the threads, but I believe it's a logical conclusion to say that AroundTheWorld must be a extremist/militant Muslim, correct??

    1) ATW posts obvious troll topic.
    2) Someone innocently will mention that the above act is not supported by Islam.
    3) ATW incoherently asks questions to answers he will ignore unless they fit to continue his bigoted agenda.
    4) Anti-ATW crew takes the bait and comes in to take jabs at ATW in guise of defending Islam.
    5) Thread goes 20+ pages of poo flinging.


    Ladies and gentlemen, here have exhibit #1 which displays the characteristics of step #2 in the lifecycle of an ATW thread.

    And above, we are just getting into step #3.

    You forgot to mention that step 4 came before steps 2 and 3 already.

    You forgot the 6th and most important step

    Thread finally dies down, wait about a week or two,
    repeat step 1 to 5

    and the cycle continues.

    Like it or not, I do not think this is trolling. It's boring and unproductive, but it's not trolling.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caning

    The frequency and severity of canings in educational settings have varied greatly, often being determined by the written rules or unwritten traditions of the school. The western educational use of the cane dates principally to the late nineteenth century, gradually replacing birching—effective only if applied to the bare bottom—with a form of punishment more suited to contemporary sensibilities, once it had been discovered that a flexible rattan cane can provide the offender with a substantial degree of pain even when delivered through a layer of clothing.

    Caning as a school punishment is strongly associated in the English-speaking world with England, but in fact it was also used in other European countries in earlier times, notably Scandinavia, Germany and the countries of the former Austrian empire.

    In some schools corporal punishment was administered solely by the headmaster, while in others the task was delegated to other teachers. In many English and Commonwealth private schools, authority to punish was also traditionally given to certain senior students (often called prefects). By the late 20th century, however, it was extremely rare in the UK for any student to be given the authority to administer corporal punishment.

    In many secondary schools in England and Wales it was in use, mostly for boys, until 1987, while elsewhere other implements prevailed, such as the Scottish tawse. In this setting the cane was generally administered in a formal ceremony to the seat of the trousers, typically with the student bending over a desk or chair. Usually there was a maximum of six strokes (known as "six of the best"). Such a caning would typically leave the offender with uncomfortable weals and bruises lasting for several weeks after the immediate intense pain had worn off.

    Schoolgirls were caned much more rarely than boys, and if the punishment was given by a male teacher, nearly always on the palm of the hand. Rarely, girls were caned on the clothed bottom, in which case the punishment would probably be applied by a female teacher.

    Caning as a school punishment for boys is still routine in a number of formerly British territories including Singapore,[1] Malaysia and Zimbabwe. See Caning in Singapore#School caning. Until recently it had also been common in Australia (now banned in public schools; not entirely abolished in all private schools),[2] New Zealand (banned from 1990)[3] and South Africa (banned in public and private schools alike from 1996).[4]

    Judicial caning, administered with a long, heavy rattan and generally much more severe than the canings given in schools, was/is a feature of some British colonial judicial systems, though the cane was never used judicially in Britain itself (the specified implements there, until abolition in 1948, being the birch and the cat-o'-nine-tails).

    please tell me you're not trying to justify the caning vl?

    The woman (and her partner apparently) were dragged by a mob, and publicly beaten before being taken to the hospital for treatment. A wee bit different then English public schools.

    I disagree with ATW on the root cause.

    But Sharia Law is bad.
    Mob rule is bad.
    This beating was bad.

    No?

    I am not sure we disagree - I never explicitly said the root cause is bad, but I asked the question if the root cause plays a role - that was already too much for many.
