Absolutely disgusting and sadly not uncommon. Pri ck should be hung from his balls till he starves to death, in the honor of Muhammad.

Who are we to judge these people? Imposing our morals on them shows typical American arrogance. We have only been around for 300 years or so and we judge these ancient people whose customs are thousands of years old? Perhaps your anti-muslim discrimination and racism kicking in again?

Your right! How silly, immature and racist of me. Cultural Moral Relativism

After all I suppose the only differences between abortion and honor killing are years and family relationship.

So, are you justifying the murder of a young mother for giving birth to a second baby girl because this could have been common practice thousands of years ago?

I thought he was imitating Riot. And a very good job at doing it I might add.

That's right - those "Muslims" are all alike. Just like Christians.

Conservatives Big on Fear, Brain Study Finds

Published on April 19, 2011 by Nigel Barber, Ph.D.

Peering inside the brain with MRI scans, researchers at University College London found that self-described conservative students had a larger amygdala than liberals. The amygdala is an almond-shaped structure deep in the brain that is active during states of fear and anxiety. Liberals had more gray matter at least in the anterior cingulate cortex, a region of the brain that helps people cope with complexity.

Conservatives tended to have a larger right amygdala – a region involved in detecting threats and responding to fearful stimuli. People with this brain structure are likely more sensitive to disgust and threatening facial expressions and tend to “respond to threatening situations with more aggression,” the study says.

Just to be clear, I fully support woman's rights, and am appalled and angered by people who kill any child due to sex, be it in Afghanistan, China, Darfur or the United States. Cannon and Dell are trying to imply I would think otherwise. Sad they are like that, and would lie and say such a thing.

A. This doesnt deal with killing children.
B. You need to brush up on the definition of a lie
C. You need to get a grip
D. I didn't imply YOU said anything. You assumed that I did which really says all you need to know.

I was quoting Dell. And you are still implying that lie, above, that I would somehow justify killing children. How pathetic and lying of you. There is no body on this board that would ever, every justify killing children. How very sad of you and Dell, that you two immediately and sarcastically turn the subject of killing children into attacks on other posters' views. Disgusting.

Are you drinking? Who said anything about killing children? How pathetic to accuse us of saying something that we clearly did not say OR imply. You are usually intolerable, now you are simply delusional.

Why don't you and Dell just apologize to the board, for interjecting your sarcastic and pathetically non-funny comments on other posters into a thread about the horrific killing of a child by it's family?

Or maybe you can try and explain away, by calling other posters names, why you even thought it appropriate, in a thread about killing children, to make your initial sarcastic, nasty post?

Pathetic. You and Dell should be ashamed. What a gigantic fail on your parts.

Not in a world where some men like Dell and Cannon think it's a subject to use for joking.

Let alone as even the article says, "Boy babies are traditionally prized much more highly than girls in Afghanistan, where a son means a breadwinner and a daughter is seen as a drain on the family until she is married off. Even so, a murder over the gender of a baby would be rare and shocking if proved true."

Rare and shocking occurrence in Afghanistan. How about that?
