Original Note:
This post is misleading. Sharia law, including stoning, is illegal in all Western countries, which operate under secular legal systems. Laws like the European Convention on Human Rights (Article 3) and the U.S. Constitution (8th Amendment) prohibit such punishments. https://www.equalityhumanrights.com/human-rights/human-rights-act/article-3-freedom-torture-and-inhuman-or-degrading-treatment en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eighth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution
