Makes you think...!

In an article in the NYT it quotes:

“Iran’s Islamic penal code, which is a parallel system to its civic code, says murder charges can be dropped if the accused can prove the killing was carried out because the victim was morally corrupt. This is true even if the killer identified the victim mistakenly as corrupt.”

Makes you wonder if the Nu-labour front-bench would be quite so full if we had such a penal-code.
