Michelle Malkin has some more info on the murder of the Pakistani teenager Aqsa Parvez, and how some Canadian newspapers are whitewashing the whole case, and how Muslim spokespersons in Canada are too…

An honor killing is usually a private family matter. One family member, usually the father or oldest son, kills the family member who has disgraced or dishonored the family, usually a female who has either had premarital sex or been unfaithful in her marriage. Honor killings take place mostly in third world countries, although in November of 1989, Saint Louis gained National attention in what became one of the most publicized honor killings in the world.

Apparently, the term “Honor killing” is as oxymoronic as “civilized muslim.”

What sort of religion would abide by aberrant, uncivilized, murderous behavior such as this? A “religion of peace?” A “religion of tolerance?”

If Muslims want to be seen as modern, civilized people worthy of living here and elsewhere in western society, they have to act the part. We don’t want their 14th century crap here.

Heck, in Massachusetts, we are finally almost rid of the Puritanical blue laws! We don’t need any of this sharia crap!

I will be happy if the father and mother are prosecuted to the limits of the law and nothing less.

I won’t hold my breath.

Keep in mind what happened to Aqsa is a single instance of a crime. Comapre it like the video that pops up now and again of a stalker abducting a young woman who is later found dead. Aqsa Parvez’s death is NOT a normal “islamic event.” I remember a kid in 1st grade whose Christian mother forced him to kneel in rock salt when he was bad until his knees bled. When he was 12 she beat him so badly he lost hearing in one ear.

I have a few Muslim friends who are by no means whacked out on the fringe like Aqsa’s family obviously is.

Parents are sometimes overprotective, sometimes STUPID, like the woman who created the phony MySpace page that led to the suicide of Megan Meier. But that’s another story…
