Iranian Sentenced to 4 Months in Jail and 30 Lashes for Walking Dog


In yet another example that the Muslim world wishes to squeeze all the happiness out of the lives of its citizens, an Iranian Man has been punished as the title suggests for walking his dog, because "Islam considers dogs to be impure." Jailing and beating dog owners, on the other hand, is a fine example of purity.
