Well not shot to where it would be fatal.

...or should he be raped?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

...an even better solution. But sadly I can't say that I am surprised. I have heard of so many screwed up laws being made in middle eastern countries.

What I just said had absolutely NOTHING to do with the fact that I thought legalizing rape was something to be supported. I think the opposite. Don't put words in my mouth. My reasoning for calling that comment racist is because I'm from the middle east. Don't say that middle eastern countries are coming up with screwed up laws solely based on the fact that few of them are. Have you heard of Lebanon coming up with screwed up laws? No. How about Jordan? No. So just because Afghanistan and some other middle eastern countries have decided to go nuts with their laws doesn't give you a right to say the ENTIRE middle east is ''coming up with screwed up laws''. There's also no need for profanity.

"Don't say that middle eastern countries are coming up with screwed up laws solely based on the fact that few of them are. " But that is true. Afghanistan IS a middle eastern country. >You said "just because Afghanistan and some other middle eastern countries have decided to go nuts with their laws doesn't give you a right to say the ENTIRE middle east is ''coming up with screwed up laws''." Which is funny, because she NEVER said so. >What she said was entirely true :"I have heard of so many screwed up laws being made in middle eastern countries." Because guess what? Afghanistan is in the middle east. Never did she say " See, this is what all them countries in the middle east are like", like you claim she is saying. Seems like YOU'RE the one putting words in her mouth.

her comment wasn't rasist! She's talking about the area, not everyone there... Some places in the middle east have strange laws that most people don't find reasonable, she never said anything bad about all the countries and people

heh it's no problem :) I was just sayin'.

Even if I HAD said "all middle eastern countries are.." That would just be generalising, it wouldn't be racism. Calling someone racist is a serious accusation and unless someone actually mentions race you shouldn't make assumptions. I've seen and heard real racists and they are truely despicable people, so bare with me if I use profanity when someone tries to put me in the same group as people like that.

Technically the law says married Shia women can't refuse sex when their husbands want it. It's still very wrong though.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

That's sort of rape. If she doesn't want it/is forced to, it's rape.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

why would someone be perverted enough to make that a law, that's like, personal matters.

Damn. If this ever happened to the US, I'd never go outside. Seriously. 0_o

If rape was legalized in the United States...oh lord chaos beyond anything imaginable..

What a douche! Poor Arab women

This is legalising rape in marriage. A horrid practice sure, but it's still illegal to just go out and rape someone you meet.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

That's horrible. I have an immense fear of rape. I would never leave the hou- oh yeah, Arab women can't by law either. D: He's a bastard.

He needs to be assasinated. Rape is...the worst thing..ever.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I did that thing where you read two sentences and they kind of merge together so I read this as "He needs to be asshatinated."

by Anonymous 13 years ago

maybe he needs to be raped.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I was just reading that a man can rape a woman in Afghanastan but as long as he pays "blood money" (money to cover her medical bills) he's free of prosecution!! >:(

I don't think I want to visit there. It's like combining rape and prostitution.

wow for real? thats scary as hell bye bye tourists

He didn't legalize it! It's been legal for year's and he did nothing about it. Like everything else with politics there's specific things in place for it to be legal. If she's alone after dark, if she accepts a ride from a guy she doesn't know. If she puts herself in harms way then it's basically legal. Not that I'm still okay with that. But if this WAS just legalized you'd be hearing it all over the news, and even all over this site. Not just from this one guy who likes to make shit up to be agreed with!

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/afghanistan/5080797/Hamid-Karzai-signs-law-legalising-rape-in-marriage.html It was legalized just over a year ago (March 2009) but as to why it's not all over this site or the news I don't know.

It just shows how ignorant you are that you can't spell Afghanistan. You have no place to comment on how wrong others are when you clearly know nothing about the world.
