#1 I would personally rather shoot all you misogynistic retards that think killing, maiming and mutilating you mother, sisters and daughters is some kind of God given right. I think your lack of honor and manhood is the problem. You are the persons who need to be offed. You are the problem. Your total lack of manhood is what is dishonorable. I am just hoping we can kill more of you before you breed and pass this evil on to another generation.

#2 SPD:
An emotional response is rarely the best,

generally speaking, attacking a culture's practitioners for it's practices just creates a "us vs them" situation.. which of course increases the importance of their culture and re-affirms it's existence, reversing your intended effect

of course the run and gun method CAN work, but you have to kill damn near everybody before they get the hint, most westner cultures don't have will to do that sort of thing these days

but, even assuming the shoot'em method was used and it worked. What have you done? You've effected a hostile change in culture, which has it's own interesting side effects. But regardless, the effect is a change in culture.

This of course indicates that a change in culture is the true goal, it's hard to effectively argue that using threats of lethal force is most effective long term choice for changing their culture.

What needs to be done is improve freedom, create systems of equal rights, reduce corruption, and limit the ability of the present culture to spread.. more or less what is already being done now...

#3 SPoD, I think you dishonor the man.

I do not agree with what he did. But it seems that his motivations were in line with what his upbringing taught him.

It does seem that he knows what he did was wrong and he is willing to face up to it, although he did not have the strength to change his internal motivations. That he knew it was wrong and he stayed to meet the police is a hopeful sign that those within such a culture have the realization tha this is wrong, even though they have not come up with the strength to change.

#5 Remember how the British handled the 'widow burning' situation in Bombay. Seems like we need another, more current, example.

#6 agreed SW and SPOD - shoot him in the streets and leave his body for the birds.

BTW - that gauge is uh...IMHO... reminiscent of something
