New Zealand MP supports stoning of gays...

Wel, at least he spoke his mind.
A Muslim lawmaker in Prime Minister Helen Clark's government has said he condones the stoning executions of homosexuals and adulterers as prescribed by strict Islamic law.

Lawmaker Ashraf Choudhary was asked on a TV3 current affairs program Monday night whether he thought the Quran was wrong to recommend such punishments.

"No, no. Certainly what the Quran says is correct," Choudhary said. The Pakistani-born New Zealand citizen then added: "In those societies, not here in New Zealand."
Choudhary actually supported a civil union bill for gays in NZ.
