THE WAR ON WOMEN ...in New York:

An elderly Pakistani immigrant beat his wife to death with a stick after the doomed woman made the mistake of cooking him lentils for dinner instead of the hearty meal of goat meat that he craved, according to court papers.

Noor Hussein, 75, was so outraged over the prospect of eating the vegetarian fare that he pummeled his wife, Nazar Hussein, 66, inside their Brooklyn apartment until she was a "bloody mess," prosecutors said in opening statements of his murder trial Wednesday.

Mr Hussein used "a stick that the family had found in the street and used to stir their laundry in a washtub". So, aside from a new wife, the poor guy now has to get a new laundry stick. His attorney says we need to be more culturally sensitive:

"He comes from a culture where he thinks this is appropriate conduct, where he can hit his wife," Clark said in her opening statements at the Brooklyn Supreme Court bench trial. "He culturally believed he had the right to hit his wife and discipline his wife."

“Try finding a NJ bank that doesn’t employ wacky Indian tellers - the kind that asks for your driver’s license when you’re DEPOSITING money.”

That’s tough; our banks (and restaurants and retail stores) got rid of all their American workers and replaced them with younger cheaper bilingual “others”...

My wife is a better shot with her handgun than I am with mine.
Never underestimate the ability of an angry woman to load and kill you with a firearm she has never seen before.

“What do 1000 abused women have in common?
They just don’t f-n listen!”

Years ago someone tried to tell me that little joke, but before they could utter the punchline I said, “Yeah, they don’t have a gun.”

How I wish I was a crazy extremist spouting nonsense.

Good Lord yes! The stuff we thought was looney paranoid delusional rantings 15 years ago is reality today.

Thank you - I’m going to frame that quote from Heinlein.

If she's riding in the car with you, and she's stepping on an imaginary brake while you drive, all bets are OFF.

LOL!! I've started just taking "naps" when I'm in the suicide seat. It's an excuse to keep my eyes closed. At least I'll be relaxed when the crash comes.

Not guilty by reason of religion / culture?

I can't wait to see some of that Old Testament justice meted out, using this same defense.

ISLAMABAD: Amid criticism from various quarters, including some of its own members, the Council of Islamic Ideology (CII), on Wednesday endorsed its earlier ruling that girls as young as nine years old were eligible to be married, "if the signs of puberty are visible".

Yes ,you are correct.
It was intended just to appease “them”.

And this is in New York City, right? Unbelievable. My country: where are we going?
