I may need to convert to Islam.
But didn't WE previously protect OUR daughters, as well?
My cousin had to go to extremes with his kid sister’s boyfriend when she was younger:
“If you ever go near my sister again, your last moments will be spent in excruciating pain, wondering if you will die from blood loss or suffocation from the dirt of your own shallow grave.”
I think it was usually shotgun weddings in the old days, not shotgun killings.
A shotgun wedding is a family matter, or at least it used to be. But contrary to Mohammed’s properly subdued wife, killing the boyfriend is not just a family matter in this country, the way it is in Pakistan, for instance. Our police and courts and even our TV reporters take a different view, lady.
We did, but we didn't kill the suitor - we insisted that he make an honest arrangement of it.
Nowadays, when your daughter decides to shack up with some punk, you're supposed to give them a housewarming gift.
