Honor Killings

The interesting topic of honor killings from East to West.

The article takes a special look at Italy.

I've been hearing honor killings are crimes of passion. Perhaps in some cases, but why does it sound like a cop out to me?

  1. How can a pre-meditated murder be a "crime of passion?"

    Also, you ever notice that small, little forms of governance always support some weird stuff?

  2. Well, it's a position held by some and I'm not buying it. "Honor killings" have been making a comeback here and quite frankly it sickens me when I see a 13 year old girl killed because she listens to "American" music.
