Since Iran is under no obligation to make any trial public, why are we harping on the superficial appearance of this particular case?
No. I just said we don't know, and this is why. I don't care about the appearance of the case. I still think execution is always wrong though.

I never said the case was fake. I said, we don't know if she's guilty or not because they just found her guilty without allowing her to have proper defense. Take a fucking chill pill.
Holy fucking crap. You are stuck in the moment just like white bigots and even whites who are not bigots who cannot understand the outrage over Micheal Brown.
CONDITIONS AND CLIMATE are a problem there and there is no way under those conditions in that climate to claim she got a fair trial.
The law is on the books that the state can execute you for your own rape. That is not a neutral law, that is a sexist law based on the Koran. As such there is no way one can see the state or the court as objective or fair to women. Anymore than white Christians under segregation could be viewed as fair when those laws existed.
I don't see where the outrage is coming from. All I have said is that we don't know the details of the case because it appears that she hasn't been given a fair trial. I am almost agreeing with you with less irrational anger towards people who are just discussing. Like I said, take a fucking chill pill.
