Public hangings in Iran

Public hanging is barbaric, inhuman en medieval. Iran is a country full with contrasts. On one hand you have a great portion of progressive thinking people, on the other hand you have barbaric zealots who still think they live in medieval times.
 
There is no compulsion for children to go along to watch public execution but adults must watch.. Its an Islamic procedure actually and it is done so that the punishment serves as a lesson for others and people might fear the crime itself...

True..if they really want to hang them in public, do it in a closed area where the children can be prevented from viewing the execution.

Even then the hangings in Iran are still barbaric. They don't let the prisonors fall, but they make it so long as possible. Here (warning: graphic):

Do you think this is civilization? We are no better than Arabs or Africans. Iran is a backward country.
 
I totally disagree with children being able to watch people being killed, why don't they provide rotten tomatoes for the crowd to throw while their at it?
I also disagree with public execution and even execution full stop but that's another matter.
@ Surenas that video is sick! Is that definitely in Iran? Is that the public taking action into their own hands?

What if I were to say it's too disgusting even for most adults? If i was there i might puke everywhere
ofcouse, you're kind i'd even kill by my own hand taliban
 
Yes, it's definitely in Iran. No, it's a prisoner who's hanged by government people.

In India hangings are rare and even then extreme care and precautions are taken so as to make the death as swift as possible. Its never rushed as seen in Iran in the video. Also the prisoner has to be mentally and physically fit.

Well, then India is more civilized than Iran.
