Buried up to her shoulders in the dirt of the village, cobblestones thrown at her head until she died. There's something inherently wrong with people who do these things and the reasons they do them.

@1:24 I'm confused why you are attacking 1:13 (no, I'm not 1:13). He/she is simply saying there is something wrong with a culture that would do that... and I agree.

Just the term "Honor Killing" is disturbing. What kind of sick degenerate medieval knuckle dragger would torture their own family members over nothing. I wish we could relocate all the liberals in this country to Iraq and Afghanistan.

Oh. I see, 1:24. There IS a HUGE difference in a society that doesn't stone you, but beats a woman (but she was a TOUGH woman) to death IN FRONT OF THE COURTHOUSE, with bricks. I got it now. Thanks.
I don't know what to say about the setting on fire of women who go outside without permission, but I'm positive you have a good spin on that.
Maybe you can tell us all how the great "Religion of Peace" gets away with hanging people (a court ordered hanging, by the way) who are doing nothing wrong (other than being Christian)?
Even Satan has defenders. You admire him, too?
Remember, this isn't individual vigilantes. Its the culture. The society. The government. And we are supposed to "understand" that and "accept" them?
This is the part where you get to say "its just a FEW muslims".
Its also the part where I fall on the floor, laughing. Please don't set me on fire or sentence me to prison for being "happy". Or KILL me for having a Bible in my possession.
