Where the hell is Kevin Bacon when you need him???

Four women and two men have been sentenced to death in northern Pakistan for singing and dancing at a wedding, police say.
Clerics issued a decree after a mobile phone video emerged of the six enjoying themselves in a remote village in the mountainous district of Kohistan, 176km north of the capital Islamabad.
Pakistani authorities in the area said local clerics had ordered the punishment over allegations that the men and women danced and sang together in Gada village, in defiance of strict tribal customs that separate men and women at weddings.

Islam is a flawed cult. This is another example.

yet more ethnocentric nonsense and hating on people of color from the far right. Who are we to judge about another culture? I'm sure they have a reasonable justification for their decision. We know one thing about these Pakistanis: at least they are smart enough that they never would have elected a George W Bush!!

So was Iraq. Germany and Japan were our enemies at one time so were the brits. Allies and enemies do not remain static. Maybe you should hit yourself on the head a few times and wake up to reality.
