This story touched me, made be feel a lil sad inside.

A 16 year old girl in Pakistan got an annulment from her arranged marraige (means got the marraige removed, like a divorce) which she had been in since she was 9 (her husband was 45 at the time) was surrounded by men outside the courthouse just after the unnulment was granted, then shot to death.

This was a direct order from her parents.. What a world we live in..

This just made me feel.. I dont know.. Like I want to nuke some of these countrys off the earth and make the world a better place..

Heres the only news article I could find on it, http://www.allheadlinenews.com/articles/7012198957. You can go on to read what happend a few weeks ago aswell.

Someone is quoted saying something like "traditions are traditions, and only those breaking sacred laws should be fearful", and thats a fair statment, but there has to be a certain limit when it just becomes human cruelty.

That's ridiculous. They let their customs get in the way of their own family. I find it sick that a divorce would cause a young girl to get killed by the orders of her OWN family.

We get those a lot in Sweden. But yeah, it's sick behavior and should be a lot easier to stop by maybe giving all those teens in arranged marriages some protection.

why would we should be fearful if we disobey traditions..... we must change it if its holding our neck so tight and erasing our own happiness..... traditions are made by humans.... we are humans....so we can do anything about it.

i prefer my happiness and my whole family's happiness than following cruel traditions but if the effect of those traditions in my life are really good and not causing me troubles, then i'll follow. it's not because the elders said it but its because i want to obey.....

family should come first before those tradition thingies
and to kill your OWN child just because of that reason... dont you think its to cruel and unfair for her? she's just a kid.... 16 year old for god sake!!! not even half of people life spans.... there should be more wonderful things that can happen to her, if she didnt die young

what a cruel family..... not even thinking bout their daughter's happiness.... and to make an arranged marrage for her with a 45 year old man!!! not even near from her age......

i feel sorry for the poor girl

The article link does not work. I am not familiar with Pakistani custom so I cannot really pass judgment other than saying I think they went a bit too far. Exiling her from the family or something I could see, given that traditional mindset, but not killing her.

I think that it is horrible how her own parents had her killed. How could her parent expect her to be married to a 52 year old man at age 16, because that man was old enough to be her father!

That is so sad. Her parents must be REALLY into their beliefs to kill their own daughter because of what she wanted to do. BigBob, I would personally join you to nuke these countries, that's how angry I am now (even though this is an old thread)

I feel we all have to subscribe to the Star Trek method of thinking where you can't judge foreign affairs as these things are in a different country, however family killing family really don't make sense from an evolutionary standpoint. It's kind of hard to keep your family line going when your murdering your offspring due to divorcing from an arranged marriage.

Nuking the countries is kind of extreme. I mean saying we should nuke the countries is as radical as the parents that wanted their daughter to be murdered. Fire doesnt put out fire, and not all people in that country act like that.

This story is very sad, although somehow I have a feeling this is more the law of islam than some simple individual nations uninfluenced law.

Sad and all but since this happened 2 years ago I think it's about time to put this topic to rest if no one else is going to contribute more in depth discussion then this.
