Of 500 young Asians questioned, 18% also felt that certain behaviour by women that could affect her family’s honour justified physical punishment.
These included disobeying their father, and wanting to leave an exisiting or prearranged marriage.
[…]
They were also asked if they felt there was ever a justification for so-called “honour killings”. Only 3% said that it could be justified.
However, when divided by sex, 6% of young Asian men said that honour killings could be justified, compared with just 1% of Asian women surveyed.

Let’s start the morning expressing how devoted we are to the freedom of women everywhere on our good earth. Let them not live in fear.
Let’s start the morning considering if the truth is considered bashing maybe we need to talk about it and take steps to protect those who are victimized because they are women.
18% felt that certain behavior by women,
justified physical punishment.

Women terrify them.
poor babies..
Lets start the morning with sticking our heads in the sand in order to protect the biggest liberal lie ever perpetrated on the human race that: all cultures are equal.
I see it’s those “young Asians” again. Can I assume there are no Chinese, Vietnamese, etc. in this category?
Just to be part of the muslim cult must be shame full enough for anyone.
Let’s start the morning with some Muslim bashing.

Bashing. I had to look it up.
Old Indian word meaning “thing that make sissy boy in teepee wet his leggings”.
Do us a favour,
In general please don’t go to a BBC site, abit like your CBC it is another of their damn ram down your throat arguments that they are the worlds foremost resource for fair and unbiased news abrogation and reporting, that all over the world people flock to the BBC for balanced coverage, that its part of the identity of GB and hence forth the only way the world can get proper news.
Basically so we can continue to fleece the very few taxpaying UK public and pay the wages of assholes like Black of the AGW scam, Brand and Ross of the foul mouthed phone messages “lark” et.al.
Its just a crock of crap, they are MSM writ large.
There is a good website keeping tabs on their shit called Biased BBC, if you have any rosy eyed ideas about the BBC pay it a visit.
There are other places to get news. Be selective.
Please let’s be honest here. Honour killings are not restricted to Muslims. It is part of a much wider South Asian culture. It is possible that the roots of this despicable act lie in the Hindu faith tradition.
They probably did poll Kpreans, Chinese, Viatnamese, Tiawanese, to get the numbers so low.
Drip by drip liberal males are destroying gender equality and gay righs to appease the Islamofacists’ women hating freaks.
It’s not just the Muslims. A young mother in Queens was gunned down yesterday on her front steps for bumping into someone in a bar. Two young children will grow up without their mother.
It takes a certain intellectual dishonesty to defend this stuff. I can’t do it, sorry.
We don’t beieve in that over here in the evolved western cultures. We belive the state has a monopoly on handing out behavioural puninishments for offending the honor of the nanny state.
Some little Islamofascist quisling chirped: “Let’s start the morning with some Muslim bashing.”
Heh, IM code for “let’s start the morning off with some Christian/Jew/Conservative/woman bashing.
The reactionary left now supports the misogyny, misanthoripy and dystopia of islamofascism – just ask Sharia butt boy there.
“Let’s start the morning with some Muslim bashing.” by realizing that some like the originator of this sentence just can’t stand to hear the truth.
Joe does have a point, and there are segments of society, even here, that do that sort of thing, but with the Muslims it is a way of life.
“but but but …. the buybull says ‘honour thy father’.
thus honour killings are condoned by THAT great moral compass as well.
discuss.

Yup. That it does,obsolete. But here’s the difference…it doesn’t say to KILL those who don’t. Oh crap.Why do I even bother. As occamm and others pointed out,women scare these leftard pussy boys SO badly,they use any excuse to abuse them. I thought we were trying to get rid of women bashing?
Oh.And for those wondering,Brits class EVERYTHING outside the EU and to the east of them as “Asian”,including muzzies.
DSV, Joe, and richfisher have the right of it. Yes, it’s BBC, so you can be sure they purposely designed the poll to minimize what even they admit to be a problem.
And for sure, honour killings are not restricted to muslims. In fact the first such crime that I personally heard about involved a Sikh, who murdered his daughter and her new husband with a bomb built into an electric kettle, sent as a wedding present.
What we do know is that honour killing and physical punishment of women for “misbehaving” is sanctioned by muslim religious writings, and it does appear to be more prevalent as a practice amongst muslims than amongst other religions. You can be sure that if statistics existed to show that muslims practised honour killing less frequently than some other religion, that fact woould be trumpeted from the rooftops by the muslim apologists.
“You can cut the racism here with a knife.
Muslim-bashing. Fine way to start the morning.”
On the subject of Muslim bashing from the commenter above, this just in:
“At least four people, including three children, were shot dead at a Jewish school in Toulouse in southwest France on Monday, the third fatal shooting in the region in just over a week.”

Censored in Seattle – would you care to place a bet on who is responsible – Hindus perhaps?

You remind me of an old joke.
An irrate old biddy called the police to complain about obscene phone calls.
“Officer, he calls every night at 11:00…and he goes on and on with the filthiest stuff for an hour or more.”
You can’t defend this honor killing stuff.
Ever hear of a MALE receiving an honor killing, for a start? They’re a sick bunch of bastards lets face it.
..and there is that other war on women .

“They probably did poll Kpreans, Chinese, Viatnamese, Tiawanese, to get the numbers so low.”
That would be my assessment.
“Kpreans”…..I do that to…big fingers..I can grok your meaning. It’s a “never ya mind”.
91% of honour killings carried out by . . ..

LMAO! Reminds me of Nancy Pelosi, in witch-mode, cackling fiendishly about Newt Gingrich…”There’s something that I KNOW”….
Nowadays, there are nuts everywhere.
Obsoiver.
Not much to discuss when you can’t even quote it properly.
Oh I think its a lot higher percentage than that. In Islam its a virtue to lie to the infidel to sucker him. In fact its manditory.
“6% of young Asian men think that honour killing is justified.”
We are fortunate that it wasn’t 7%.
Now, THAT would be something to worry about.
“compared with just 1% of Asian women surveyed.”
Proving that at least 1% of people surveyed just don’t pay attention to the questions.
Do I hate Muslims? No, but until the Pope is allowed to build a church in Mecca, I would not allow any Muslims to live here. Didn’t some Saudi dude just say that they were going to remove every Christian place of worship from the Arabian peninsula? If I wanted to live in a foreign country I would move to one, not invite it here. If liberals love diversity so much why don’t they move and leave the rest of us alone?
Actually, the Bible verse is this: “Honor thy father AND thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.” (Exodus 20:12)
It is the fifth of the Ten Commandments. And, as rich and important a part of our tradition as it is, it actually has little, if anything, to do with the topic of Kate’s post.
Discuss.
The day will come when we have to go to war with these fanatical Muslims,what remains to be seen is whether that war will take place in the Middle East,Europe or here in North America.We have a whole generation of Trudeaupiates that have swallowed the multicult, all cultures are equal lie, it will be interesting to see their reaction when their daughters and grand daughters are treated like cattle and married off to some pervert they have never met.At least in the US they have a large influx of Hispanics, they tend to neutralize the muslims coming in,Canada has no such circumstance, most of our immigrants today are Muslims who have a birth rate 3 or 4 times that of the Canadian populace.Not hard to see where this is going to end in a few years.
Feliz corpulentis, the problem is people don’t know what the word “honor” means.
Asians?! If I were Asian I would be pissed at the BBC for lumping me in with Arabs and Pakistanis.
