It is so, so sad, to read in the newspapers that some countries execute their citizens for taking part in protests against their rulers. How can anyone comprehend that???
A government is supposed to oversee a country and the rulers are supposedly individuals who are themselves just citizens right?
To sentence someone to death and carry out that sentence, is truly incomprehensible!
I just can’t understand it at all!
A fine, some imprisonment (if the protester was caught vandalising or looting etc), but death? Seriously?!!
Out here in the west, we can moan and moan about how bad we believe things are, I think we should be very, very grateful! I cannot imagine the UK or US government sentencing someone to death, for joining an anti-government protest! Thankfully, we haven’t gone down that sort of route yet! It is truly incomprehensible!
