An Iranian woman, mother of two, is to be stoned to death. For adultery. For loving someone other than her husband.
She was flogged publicly in front of her children, and now she's to be murdered slowly in front of them.

I hope it does. It should. Because if it does, then it means that you'll take action.
Read Jessica Gottlieb's post that outlines how you can contact your local government officials, and gives a better overview of the situation, including links to CNN, as well as an interview done with her son.
