American Sharia Law?

June 18, 2011

Fom CSI episode “No More Bets”, about a murdered casino cheat:

Warrick: They used to tell me back in the days, the first time you got caught cheating, they’d give you a couple whacks on the hand with a ball peen hammer.

Robbins: Ow.

Warrick: The second time, you’d lose a limb.

Robbins: Third time?

Warrick: A long walk in the desert with a shovel.

This gangster justice sounds a lot like some versions of Sharia….

Games as communities

In connection with my course in Social Software and Web 2.0, I am following the online games Star Wars Galaxies and Star Wars the Old Republic as examples of social networks. Follow my SWG/SWTOR blog here.
