Fucking Barbarians

*sigh*

you know what sticks in my craw
I can accept, even if I find it disgusting
the theorhetical notion that some ignant fucking peasant
will do some stupid brutal shit like that

but this, makes me wanna just nuke the fucking country

Jordanian MPs have opposed stricter penalties for "honour killings."

Under existing laws, people found guilty of murdering female relatives
on the alleged grounds of guarding familial honour
can be released from jail after only six months.

In September last year, Jordanian lawmakers rejected plans to make the punishments more severe.

Yeah. Ditto.

I really do dislike my bigotry though.. it extends to further 'tame' aspects of the culture too.

Oh.. And Jordan is the (? on of the?) most PROGRESSIVE or the Arab nations for gender equality.

maybe honor killings are the 'third rail' of jordanian politics

Aww, isn't that cute. Just like the honor raping I posted about a week or so ago.
Honour is love.

Honour killings. Now that has to be the epitome of oxymorons.

seems like a reasonable response to me... Fucking bitches did get us thrown out of the garden of eden.

It's all about their nang and namoos. Never mind the rights violated in the name of honor or their god, fools who don't understand what they preach.

On separate note, the lack of double standard, the unilateral/unisex stance really gets to me. Burqa - guilty. Stick on some balls - lets turn a blind eye.
