In islamic countries with sharia law, nobody steals, since you risk loosing a hand. Not that I recommend that approach, but I'd be careful with such statements.

- dagw 12y agoIn islamic countries with sharia law, nobody steals, since you risk loosing a hand Really? Do you have any evidence to back up that claim?
- MrBuddyCasino 12y agoI know people that grew up there. I believe them. Thats all I can say.
- dagw 12y agoIf you can manage to prove that statement you'll basically have proven the P=NP of criminology
- MrBuddyCasino 12y agoGuess you're right - I shouldn't have posted this on HN.
- celticninja 12y agoSounds like bullshit. If that was the case they would not be whipping, beheading, stoning, maiming and executing people in these countries. (spoiler:they are doing all of these things). It's like saying because of the death penalty there are no murders in states that enforce the death penalty. When in actual fact it looks like it poses no deterrent at all.
- CalRobert 12y agoThat seems unlikely given that ISIS has apparently been stealing the homes and possessions of the Yazidi.
