I’m sure they were saying that before she was horrible murdered, because of her being an attractive, curvaceous internet celeb.

You have to love how all of the commenters here talk about “relgion” in general, as if an honor killing would have been carried out by a member of any religion. Almost all of them are done in the name of a specific religion. We better not say what that is though. The same way when a terrorist plows through a crowd of…

Yet feminists refuse to acknowledge the root of these problems.

I’m sure you would apply the same logic to ‘hate crimes’. Why call them hate crimes when it’s just murder, plain and simple. It’s because it’s a specific type of crime committed for specific reasons, and tied to specific cultures and a specific religion.

As always, fundamentalism in any form is a poison. Why bring up the other forms of fundamentalism when this (and the majority or horrible things done in the name of religion) have been tied to one specific type of fundamentalism? Islamic fundamentalism.

I don’t know. As I said, then the issue is that there is the very real possibility that any ground troops would be perceived as an attack by the West on all of Islam, and would just increase extremism. That’s what happened to Al Qaeda after the Gulf War. Maybe there’s nothing that we can do for the ethnic and…

If you think the world has never been worse than it is today, you really should pick up a history book. Horrible stuff happens, but there is a sense of fatalism that is promoted simply because now we hear about EVERY shitty thing that happens across the globe.

Their religion? The belief that they’ll be rewarded in the afterlife for being martyrs? I think that answers that question.

Maybe it’s time we realize that our thoughts and prayers aren’t going to do shit. We’re between a rock and a hard place. Either do next to noting and live with the fact that attacks like this are going to come every month or so, or we take Islamic extremism head on and risk pushing more “moderate” Muslims to…

Maybe because she’s no Eva Mendes.

“Some things I did not do:

The difference is that mugging someone is illegal in itself. Having sex with someone is not (obviously). It becomes illegal through the lack of consent. I don’t agree with this article, but I don’t think anyone can argue that being drunk can make it harder to gauge whether someone is giving consent AND even if they…

Are you saying that all of the women in Cologne who said they were attacked by men of foreign descent were lying? It may be an inconvenient truth for you, but it’s never really been refuted. Pretty flippant response for such a serious crime.

I’m guessing that they had the directors lined up long before they saw the strong positive reaction to his two episodes. You would think they would see how good they were before hand though, and sign him up for season 7 even before they were released. Oh well, hopefully he’s back for the final season.

Well, they did sort of imply the The Mountain was going to repeatedly rape Septa Unella (possibly to death). He’s a character how was known for being a rapist (the Red Viper’s sister), and I don’t necessarily think he has the brain function for torture at this point. It would also add a little extra something to…

This is what mob justice looks like the 21st Century. As a society, are we sure we want to hold people criminally liable for how their words could affect someone? This is a sad story, and there is clearly something wrong with this girl, but finding her criminally liable for another kids choice (and it was his…

“I still, even though I have worked for years in mental health, cannot understand just how cruel children can be to one another”

I’m not sure socially unacceptable should necessarily mean illegal though. That feels like a really slippery slope.

No, they really don’t. As bad as the NRA is they haven’t murdered hundreds of minorities, nor sold women as sex slaves. Flippant comments like this trivialize the horrors of ISIS and what they do.

Is your first reaction in any story to somehow make the US the bad guy? Your comment is asinine.
