Australian Judge Finds Muslim “Cultural Differences” Valid Excuse for Rape

In the rapist’s defense, his lawyer argued that he wasn’t at all clear about this whole “Women are human beings” thing.

Mr Regan said Esmatullah Sharifi was uneducated, illiterate, inexperienced in forming relationships with women, and was confused about the nature of consent. He is in Australia on a permanent protected visa.

The judge didn’t buy it then, but the usual lefty approach is to just keep appealing until you find a bleeding heart judge who accepts the horrible notion being put forward. And that didn’t take very long.

In a sane society, he would be seen as a danger to the public and restrained until he was no longer a danger.

Put him and the judge in jail for life. Perhaps they can help each other grow.

It’s not “rape” of the rapist is Muslim.

It is “loving sex between consensual parties.”

Keep sitting on your hands about all this.

There is no point in discussing stories like this. Decent people know that this rapist is an evil predator, and liberals are incapable of understanding facts.

Was it rape-rape? Or was it the OK kind of rape?

Christian woman are regularly raped in Muslim countries. It happens all the time. Muslims believe they are entitled to harm Christians whenever they choose.

Muslims believe they are entitled to harm women whenever they choose. And children.

Where are the Australian feminists on this one? Probably ignoring it while focusing on insignificant perceived slights to their gender, like in this country.

If he was white, male, Christian.... in a Koran-spewing, crotch-hair Islamo-Fascist country, they would torture if you look for more than one second at a veiled woman

There is no cultural exception for rape. This judge needs to be jailed for being White Guilt Liberal

Illiterate and didn’t know the law, but knows how to buy a car and how to get a driver’s license....that makes sense.

The British were great respecters of tradition...

"Be it so. This burning of widows is your custom; prepare the funeral pile. But my nation has also a custom. When men burn women alive we hang them, and confiscate all their property. My carpenters shall therefore erect gibbets on which to hang all concerned when the widow is consumed. Let us all act according to national customs." ~ Charles James Napier

A well placed .45 slug right between the eyes by the victim when the rape was taking place would have solved this dilemna.

Oh this is Australia. People are not allowed to protect themselves.

Well then, possibly a loud whistle would have solved this?

Funny I worked on a case way back where a Muslim father was excused from sodomizing his own son on the same grounds. Complete and utter BS. This sets a bad precedent. Pretty soon all pedopjiles will be converting to Islam so they can rape their children “legally”. I bet the Muslim defense attorney winked at the judge afterwards and told him the check is in the mail.

I guess in some places ignorance of the law and ignorance in general ARE AN EXCUSE! I was always taught that ignorance of the law is not an excuse.

Silly me.

Australia has many square miles of uninhabited desert. I suggest they take a page from Texas and follow the three S’s when this individual is released from police custody.

Equipment to take along on this kind of party includes a large knife, a hacksaw and a shovel. Photos to be delivered to the local mosque are optional.

Where are the feminists ?! Rape is justified if a Muslim doesn’t understand Western norms?

In order to prevent future misunderstandings, I suggest that the rapist and judge are hanged and that their preserved corpses are carted all over the country to teach people what happens to rapists and rapist enablers. And then send the corpse of the Afghan refugee to Afghanistan in a pig leather. The outrage that will cause in Afghanistan and the OIC will ensure that no one ever thinks that rape is culturally acceptable.
