Crucifixion Makes a Comeback in Ecuador

Our deevolution continues: stumbled across this incredible photo of an Ecuadoran man being "punished" for theft. From the militaryphotos.net site:

Mario Quishpe shouts as villagers burn his legs after allegedly being caught stealing in Pelileo Grande, Ecuador, some 75 miles south of Quito, Tuesday, Oct. 10, 2006. A parish priest, along with other villagers, managed to extinguish the flames before he was taken by police to the hospital where his burns were treated.

2. You know what would be the best punishment for these sickos?
Police comes up and says, "the man you burned has been completely forgiven for his crimes. He's now a free man, and FAR away from here. Have a nice day."
