“What that father did is closer to Taliban justice than rational parenting”
Hogwash, make a rational argument but comparing this to the taliban is idiotic.
Yes, you have a point. The news about them mutilating little girls is pure b.s.; so I'm an idiot. /s
Rational argument? There are laws. Girls under this age are illegal, and girls over this age legal. The age of consent in Germany is 14, and if I'm reading this right, this girl was 17. Given her age it would have been legal in Texas, and yeah we'd deal harshly in Texas with a father who castrated his legal aged daughter's boyfriend. Protecting children is one thing, but this was a young woman by legal definition, not a child.
