The problem with punishments such as this is the fact that if someone is wrongly convicted you have no way back and for this reason im not certain how I feel about it..

I think im all for this kind of punishment but only for repeat offenders.. for example if someone is a serial car thief, give them a few times to learn and then if they do not... off with the hands.
I was going to say the same until I actually read the article, maybe you should try that.

A little barbaric though, blinding by acid, you do need to draw a line between "us and them" and in this case, it's verging on the the law and the accused being as bad as each other.
