"Honor Killing"
I admit it. I watch little to no TV. Between my job and the kids, I have precious little free time, therefore, I have absolutely no idea whats going on in the world most of the time. But sometimes, after the kids go to bed at night, if I'm not slipping into unconciousness from sheer exhaustion, I like to catch up via websites. A few days ago a story caught my eye about a Muslim in Canada that had killed his first wife and daughters (from a second wife) b/c they had become "too westernized" and were threatening the good family name with their "westernized" actions. Apparently, there was some uproar about how this is associated with the Muslim religion and that this is something that is openly practiced among the Muslim community - even encouraged, and people were saying that prosecuting him for murder was discrimination of religion. How come no one told this guy that he could move his whole family to Canada from 30 miles east of nowehere and practice any religion he wanted, but he had to abide by Canada's rules? I'm un-familiar with Canada's laws, but I'm pretty sure they don't allow you to kill your family members b/c they've become "too westernized", religion, family honor, or not. And WTF did he think was gonna happen anyway? I'd like to know when we are going to start handing out sheets of paper to immigrants that say "WELCOME TO THE UNITED STATES (or Canada, or wherever)". FOLLOW OUR RULES AND LEARN OUR LANGUAGE OR GO HOME." He was convicted of murder, but I don't know his sentence. But here's the question: If you say to someone "You may practice any religion you choose, but you must follow our rules" discrimination of religion?

A defense attorney is obligated to come up with any defense imaginable, no matter how ridiculous. If it wasn't this, he'd have said his client suffered bipolar disorder from Twinkie consumption.
There's no way this asshole didn't know that murder was against Canadian law. It's against the law in most countries in the world.

Just sayin'.
Yeah, because her one bad choice takes away all personal choices that might be valid in your eyes.
Man, you are really a piece of shit, aren't you?

IDK. I didn't read it. Don't really care.
I thought it was funny how you were going on about abiding the laws but you can't keep people out of jail at your own house.
Irony is amusing to Cracker.

I enjoy irony as well. And I'm comfortable saying that in first person, ya fucking weirdo.

Yes, I live alone in a messy apartment, posting pics of my sagging white boobs that I try to hold up (even creepier, I took them myself), trying to be amusing on the Internet.
WAIT! That's you!
Oh, ow. How terribly cutting.
Shall I post another photo of my boobs? I don't need much encouragement.
