THERE ARE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE THIS!!!!!

December 7th 2008 08:16
This was sent to me in an email forward and to be honest I was sickened if this is what it is supposed to be. I feel very guilty because my insane mind actually aksed myself the question "will he ever steal again?". The more I thought about it I came to the conclusion I would consider killing anyone who used this as punishment on any child in front of me.

Be warned: Images may upset you.

MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON US!!!


















No religion can ever justify such hideous crimes. I wanted to know if this was accurate and not some acted shock video and searched the website - www.metacafe.com and this is a site similar to You Tube. I could find no further information.

We call ourselves humans but we are barbarians really. Before any bureaucrats can get their act together, this kid will have lost the use of his arm. International human rights - ah!

Look this one up on snopes.com, he is not being punished. Those are photographs of street-performers doing their "magic act" of a car driving over a boy's arm, and then coming out unscathed. Obviously he is only wincing to make a big show of it to their audience.

Don't believe me - why would his punishers so thoughtfully put some nice soft padding down under his arm to keep it from getting cut up, if the intent is to destroy it?

And the man in the first photograph is speaking into a microphone. Can't you just hear him saying, "And now ladies and gentlemen, the amazing boy with the iron arm..." or something like that?

How the eye can deceive!! Was that supposed to be some kind of joke?

Not on my behalf Janet. I tried finding out if it was a hoax originally before I posted but could not find anything. Half of the email forwards you get in your inbox are total hoaxes. Glad this one was.
Snopes.com seems like a great website for me to check accuracy from now on.

I didn't for one minute think it was you Jason. And yeah, I'm glad too that it wasn't for real. But how could anyone? I'll have to check out Snopes.com myself.

The email sent around with these pics probably originally asked for money for surgery for his arm or something similar and using these images obviously gets a reaction out of people and will drum up sympathy and hence more money.
You are correct in your original statement that we are barbarians at heart and preying on people's sense of justice and goodness is no less evil than the believed act involved.

disgusting 'magic trick'. Imagine how many things could go wrong! the obvious intent is to cause more Islamic hatred. Just what everyone needs. Thanks for bringing to attention.

Thank goodness it's not as first thought. I agree with JCL though - perpetrating hatred through a mindless 'magic trick' is evil intent.

Thanks for bringing the snopes site to our attentiion as well.

Cheers

Ok, it's totally over the limit, as those people were completely insane...!

The punishment is too harsh for a 8-year-old child, isn't it, Jason?

JCL - Could not agree more on both your points. Se stupid idiots out there!

MNG - more thanks to Steen - the website is awesome!

Wilson - read everyone's comments, we found out it was an evil hoax. I was extremely angry when I thought it was real.

Thanks to everyone for commenting and thanks again Steen - the website is GOLD for all the forwards I get!

Anonymous - whatever you are trying to say - good on you but I have no idea what you are saying. Great for the kid getting up and performing tricks but then to send it around the world and promote it as punishment is not on!!

Really Long Link

The preceding images are apparently authentic -- they were published as such in 2005 on the Iranian news Web site Peyke Iran, at any rate -- but the accompanying caption doesn't jibe with the original report and was clearly fabricated after the fact.
According to a Peyke Iran spokesperson who corrected the record last November in a note posted on Little Green Footballs, the young boy whose arm was run over was not being punished for a crime. He was part of a "Maareke giry" or street magic act and allegedly performed the stunt for money (note the gentleman speaking into a microphone in image #1). The seventh and eighth pictures in the series, which appear to show the child shaken but otherwise unharmed after the ordeal, were omitted from the email flier but can still be viewed on Peykeiran.com (where all the images are attributed to photographer Siamak Yari).

So, just to be clear, when they ask ' Is this a religion of peace and love', are they talking about Islam, or capitalism? The boy is being punished for stealing bread.

Wow - you are more stupid than me for posting the original article. Did you not read the comments you goose? Or is this just a way for you to spread whatever crap you are with your links - could not be bothered going to any of them, you see I did that already when I retracted what most thought was the truth and already corrected myself.

NO RELEGION, NO GOD, NO HUMANS WILL DO SUCH PUNISHMENTS TO A CHILD
I am sorry - are you completely naive and stupid - get your shit together you tool!
