79. "Honor" killings of your own child for the "shameful" act of not being able to prevent some
nut case from raping her is barbarism. Please stop trying to rationalize it.

Where were all these safety nets in the Western world in the 1700's? Were Westerners killing their children for being raped because they had no one to turn to in time of need other than families and friends? And, hello, this is 2008. How about spending the last couple of centuries figuring out some safety nets instead of continuing to murder your 16 year old daughters for not being strong enough to fight off a rapist?

These rationalization attempts are unreal.
