Topic: Nearly 1,000 Pakistani women ‘killed for honor’ | |
---|---|
excuse me, I Was discussing something I thought was relevant to 'honor' killing under the umbrella of unjustified killing sticking STRICTLY to killings in the name of honor though, I feel killers should have punishments themself and stricter punishment is needed for honor killers to try to deter the potential for others to follow suit,,, Well, that's the problem. There is no punishment for honor killing. |

actually, in some places there are and in others there arent in those places who have punishment, though, the punishment is light The punishment is non-existent or light because it is culturally accepted and expected. Harsher penalties will not help much when the society promotes this. |

Pride and greed are probrably the cause of all "evil" in the world... |

Pride and greed are probrably the cause of all "evil" in the world... I'd have to say that's probably true. |

Harsher penalties will not help much when the society promotes this. harsher penalties would reflect less 'acceptance' or 'expectation' noone can change peoples minds if they are not open to it, we can only deter their behavior |

If these governments actually passed harsher laws AND the local law enforcement investigated and prosecuted the offenders it would help. In some of the areas, the law requires 4 adult male witnesses to testify to the rape in order to convict. You can imagine how frequently that happens. |

I was speaking it is unfair to require four witnesses to a crime before it is prosecuted Oh no, the crime is still prosecuted. It's just that if a woman says she was raped and she doesn't have four male witnesses, then she is admitting to adultery and has to be executed. |

The Qur'an advocates and instructs readers to respect the prior Gospels. So why aren't the Hebrew's rules for rape victims applied? |
