Is 'Eye for an eye' acceptable law and how do you think the international community should respond to those that impose it?

Asked by RareDenver (13173points) December 22nd, 2009

A Pakistani court has ordered that two men have their ears and noses cut off, as punishment for doing the same to a woman who refused to marry one of them.

What these men did was disgusting but do you think the state should be imposing ’Eye for an eye’ style justice? What do you think the international communities response should be?
