    Apparently it's getting harder to find psychopaths with swords. So the Saudis are considering firing squads for their executions.

    I actually checked to make sure I wasn't being had by The Onion. It's an Egyptian website.

    The second graph is particularly good stuff. They inadvertently got a "head" pun in there.

    They're spending too much time hanging around singing bushes.

    Based on Islamic Law the firing squad would have to stand in a 270 degree crescent around the condemed

    I saw something where they were at least planning to execute the leader of a gang of armed robbers by crucifying him.

    He and the other six have reportedly been shot, instead.
