Stoned in America

Stoned

Good Lord:

Authorities in Delaware County say a 70-year-old man was stoned to death with a rock stuffed in a sock by a younger friend who alleged the victim made unwanted sexual advances.

According to the criminal complaint, 28-year-old John Thomas of Lansdowne has told police he killed 70-year-old Murray Seidman because the Old Testament refers to stoning homosexuals.


This is still a crime in America, although with all the Christian Reconstructionists in congress these days, that might not last forever.
