Sounds like a seriously authoritarian world you want to live in. I hope you don't think of yourself as a "small government conservative", because you're clearly not.

The solution is what's happening... The sob is being tried for murder.

You are the one who wants to make this into something it's not....

If poor you is scared about going to sleep at night because someone has a gun it's time you moved to a different country.

Glad you believe in the rule of law.

I never said that. I said I was more concerned about being shot by a non-Muslim gun owner than I am about Muslim "honor killings" affecting me, which is a perfectly legitimate and rational point of view.

We see where sharia law takes us.... back to the stone age.

In America we live under American law, anyone who wants to live by any other law(s) they should be asked to leave and if they refuse they get deported to the desert of their choice.....

Would you be referring to this poster specifically?

I'm glad that Fox News is keeping this story going with current updates, whereas CNN seems to have forgotten all about it since an initial and pathetically lame "story" was published in November.

Expect to see more "honor killings" by our friends at the religion of peace. What if it's your son or daughter who happens to be walking or visiting with a female Muslim friend when her father decides to restore the family honor by rubbing her out, injuring or killing whoever happens to be with her? Don't think this won't affect the rest of us; it will.
Funny, do you note how many christers kill their spouses for whatever reason? Since most US citizens are self-proclaimed christers and most crimes are committed by christers, why aren't these crimes given more air time?

Domestic Violence Facts
Domestic violence during the last 20 years has been acknowledged as being a rapidly growing health concern in America's communities, and as a result, communities around the country are working to develop strategies to stop the violence and provide more protective mechanisms for women and children who are battered (Hart, 1995).

Statistics on Domestic Violence in the United States - SoundVision.com
updated for 2009
Homicide and injury
-According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, on average, more than three women and one man are murdered by their intimate partners in this country every day.
-Of all the murders of females in 2002, family members were responsible for 43%.
-Eight in ten murderers who killed a family member were male. Males were 83% of spouse murderers.
-Almost one-third of female homicide victims that are reported in police records are killed by an intimate partner.
-In 70-80% of intimate partner homicides, no matter which partner was killed, the man physically abused the woman before the murder.

That is not quite true. The man who killed his two daughters in TX for wearing horror of horror blue jeans and dating boys fled the country.

No, she has a good point. If chattypatty is going to castigate all Muslims based on the actions of a few, then it's logical to do the same wih Christians, isn't it?
