We are not talking Saudi Arabia. We are talking Iran.

But there is something I need to mention about Saudi Arabia and executing gay men. I did look at a list of executions for the charge of sodomy (which is what it is referred to as. Simply identifying as a gay man doesn't appear to be an offense. They need to catch two men in the act for it to happen) is when those executions happen it was never just for sodomy, it was usually compounded by another (universally serious) offense such as rape of a child and/or murder.

So the gay men being executed weren't just accused of fucking another man, but also of killing another person (quite possibly the same guy) or of raping a child.

Now am I missing some cases? Maybe. I dont spend that much time looking at Saudi Arabia's prolific executions (they execute more people per capita than any other country), but most people executed in Saudi Arabia aren't gays, they are drug smugglers.

I do not agree with the death penalty at all. So even executing drug smugglers is off-limits to me. Drugs should be legalized (or at least decriminalized) and strictly regulated, but no prison time for them, and certainly not an execution.
