Death for robbery,and they still do it? That tells me that you can make all the laws you want , penilties as harsh as you want,and ban guns. It dose'nt matter .People are still going to do these things and hide their guns.Then what happens? Some mothafuckers with guns kick in your front door kill one of family members (usually dad)beats the shit out of everybody,rape the females, and steal all your shit!

i suppose i should have looked through the files on my computer first before asking. here is the incident, the video and info that i have on the similar incident. and yes, what i am posting is a repost, not to be confused with deadmaus's post which is an entirely different and new post/incident.

Public hanging rescue turns to carnage in southern Iran

A scuffle that broke out during the attempted public hanging of two robbers in southwest Iran led to two being shot dead, dozens injured, and the escape, albeit short-lived, of the convicts. Please be aware that there are graphic images included in this post.

One of our Observers in Iran, Omid Habibinia, passed this story on to us.

When the Sirjan town authorities tried to hang two men convicted of robbery on the morning of Dec. 22, protestors threw stones at the police and members of the court carrying out the execution. According to the semi-official Fars news agency, the protestors also shot at officers with handguns.

Amidst the chaos, the protestors managed to cut down the convicts, who were still alive a minute after the attempted hanging (seen at 00'30 - 00'50 in the following video).

The police responded by opening fire on the protestors (seen after 01'05). Two of the convicts' family members were killed in the fray with over 20 people also reportedly injured.

The convicts were soon tracked down by the police after fleeing Sirjan by car with the help of family members. They were then brought back to the execution platform and a second hanging began in the afternoon.

This time however, the protestors set the platform alight, once again preventing the execution of the convicts.

The men did not manage to escape a second time however, and were detained by police until the next morning, when they were hanged behind closed doors

its 3am and my laptop hates me. i have no idea why my video won't play. here it says it is a flv but i convert my videos to wmv which is what the one i tried to post is suppose to be. anyway, my video is old so no big deal. and my apologies adike, i was thinking the post was started by deadmaus.

i give credit to those in both hanging situations that tried to save the people from being hung. right or wrong, they had a lot of guts. they are risking the chance of finding themselves on the wrong end of a noose doing that. especially when the hangings are done in public as a means to keep people under control by fear and it backfires. i wish the best of luck to those arrested for trying to save the men because they are certainly going to need it.

Two similar occurrences..wow
