Are you comparing the Qatari legal/punitive system against the US system ? If so, you're either being incredibly naive, incredibly stupid, or just trolling. Anyone with half a brain would rather be arrested for a (percieved) crime in the US rather than a country such as Qatar. Read the orginal article carefully and see the kind of limbo that Proctor is in. One could argue that the link you posted is not even on topic.

Bahrain may have similar legal foundations as Qatar, but those are definitely two different countries. Someone standing up on a pedestal should probably know that.
Noted and corrected. Funny I made that mistake since I've lived close by in Dubai for a while and have relatives living and working in both Bahrain and Qatar.
