wooow....i know dating is forbidden, but thats just fu*ked up

[Nagishkaw 510]

Totally.

[S and S 12]

Its totally cultural and has nothing to do with Islam. All the religions in the middle east have been known to conduct honor killings. I could go on and on about that subject for hours. It makes me so mad.

Where the hell is the mother of this poor child. This is how I deal with a problem like this.

Honey I am home, and have I got a big surprise for you

Justice here could, quite possibly, end up much like "an eye for an eye." The State of Texas executes really bad people.

I am still thinking about you leaving all those serial killer books around the house when you were pissed off at your ex...... ( from the pic with the butcher knife)

yep, never murder in Texas, they have the death penalty and THEY USE IT, he will be hanging with some of America's best psychos

well at least he wont get away with it here like he would if he were overseas.

That's illegal in Jordan, and they've got a death penalty there. Depends on where you pulled the stunt.

But again, total BS. Seriously, if "dating" is an issue, watch your kids better & teach them that you don't like it.

Shouldn't go blowing your lid like that. Even a "by-the-book-medieval-punishment" for that is just a whoopin'.

Heh, reminds me of what I did when I was younger... it was more or less out of curiosity & the sheer fun factor involved with ... uh, stuff ...

but I tell you if I did that today - I'd have been expelled from school.

Society's getting so up-tight....

That is right my sister, always leave good reading material available in all places, especially the bathroom, always look for books and magazines that show graphic pictures, I think it leaves a nice image.

Yeah, but it still happens in Jordan and people still only get a slap on the wrist for it-- a few years in prison. When was the last time someone was actually executed for honor killing in Jordan?

ETA-- and they aren't even published in newspapers like Alrai, you only see them in the Jordan Times or something that is more for foreigners.

Didn't y'all see that episode of Law & Order (*ripped from the headlines*)??? I can't remember if it was SVU or CI, but yeah, it happens. It is just soooo not right.

i know someone from a small village in jordan who got killed by her father and brother, and she was actually married...problem was she married in secrecy...she had a tummy ache one nihgt, brother took her to the hospital and the doc told the brother, congrats your gonna be a daddy, he hung his head in shame...took her home, and put a bullet in her head....i dont know what ended up happening to him, but your right julianna, a few years in prison is about all that happens most of the time...
