Stone me!

Sudan has erupted into mobs baying for the blood of schoolteacher Gillian Gibbons, for allowing her class of primary school children to name the class teddy Muhammad, demanding she be stoned, lashed, beheaded. A columnist in the Observer newspaper got it right today, when he reminded us that just recently Saudi courts dealt with a rape case by condemning the victim to 90 lashes. When she complained they increased the sentence to 200 lashes. So the solution is simple. Lash the teddy.
