I'm not fucking saying that. I'm saying the same problem happens elsewhere without the grossly inaccurate generalization of "Islamic Culture" being applied, which means your post is hot garbage and doesn't address the REAL underlying issues.

Woman burned alive for reporting sexual harassment in Bangladesh [Update: death penalty for 16 murder convictions]

Sickening. I don't know what else to say. This mindset existing anywhere in the modern world is insane.
I don't know how to say this without it being casted as more American imperialism/globalism, but we need to find a way to somehow change the cultures in these countries across the world and stamp this shit out. If such a thing were possible, the side effect would be less people fleeing these conditions or the people who do flee for other reasons being more able to integrate in their new homes.
The question would be how?

I responded to a post specifically about the victim's culture. Which has been an overwhelmingly (like 90%) conservative Muslim nation for hundreds of years where sexual violence is never reported due to a lengthy legal process utilizing mafia-level intimidation technique against women. I then stated that progressive muslims flee such places for the west, which is why I hate the racism against such families who simply want to practice their religion without the insane bigotry.
I'm open to debate what part of that is "grossly inaccurate."
Update: death penalty for the murderers
The problem is religion and the gross traditions and culture that where spawned from it and that stupid extremists people still follow all around the world. And wether you like or not, Islam is a part of it. Most religions are or where a part of it. Humans are pieces of shit and religions tend to get the worse out of a big part of them. That's the issue.
The amount of people involved in her murder is insane but not surprising.
Of course.
So many men behind this, all to protect one man. And they're all going to die.
It wasn't criticism but more like horse shit.
Same as arranged marriage, that shit is regional and not Muslim specific, same as acid attacks, same as women genetal mutilation. These things happen In non-Muslim countries while also being absent in many Muslim countries yet all of them are attributed to Islam.
No one was saying that certain thing were specific to Islam, that said, some things happen more often in Islamic countries compared to other parts of the world. I'm very well aware of what happens to LGBT people in most Islamic countries for example. So no, it's not horse shit that this kind of behaviour is linked to religion.
Indeed. So upsetting. However I'm glad that they will not get away with it, and that Bangladesh is making their justice system work. I hope they die in pain, and they burn in hell.
I remember this story. Can't support the death penalty but I am relieved they won't be able to hurt anyone else.
The amount of people involved, especially women, that went along with this is depressing as hell.
Scary to think how this would have been swept under the rug (prick judge tried to dismiss the case at first) if it didn't spawn such an outcry.

Some people are just chopping at the bits to come into these kinds of threads Rusty
Glad there was some justice here. :(
Thank goodness there will be justice.
They all deserve to die for what they did.
Hopefully, they don't tie the noose correctly and they suffer.
This is an idiotic argument. Should we disallow well founded criticism of the Carholic Church? Because, hey - the Boy Scouts in the region also covered for pedophiles and discriminated against LGBT? And "not all Catholics!"
Disregard for a moment the headline grabbing atrocities, but consider the daily regular abuse often accepted as a way of Muslim life against women who aren't just gay - but dare to stray from tightly conservative gender roles. Just like anyone other culture/religion/nation - Islam deserves to be associated with the reputation it has earned.

As a person from Bangladesh I am ashamed to say sometimes we go one step forward and two steps back. Most powerful person in BD is a woman to tragedy like this. It's disgusting but I am glad to see justice is being served. I hope these people find the deepest pits of hell.
You mean 16 murderers who burnt an innocent girl who was a victim?
Can't say I feel bad about these people trying to cover this shit up biting it
I'm in no way pro death penalty but I'm glad justice is served and the execution also sends a strong message for cases like this. Justice being served makes me happy.
Mostly because God hates women. For thousands of years society treated women like property and that mindset is still persistent to this day.
Theres always one person that does this.
Every fucking time. It's embarassing.
yes
Does what? I'm sorry I'm not a fan of the death penalty.
It's a sad story all around.
Come
Someone comes in and tries to tsk tsk people for being okay that justice was done.
The "strong message" will be lost. 17 people dead because 1 asshat couldn't keep his hands to himself, and didn't want to face consequences for his bullshit actions.
I mean, think about this situation. Its utterly depressing. A woman speaks out about sexual assault? Dead. Other female students (!!!) torture and kill her by setting her on fire? Dead. Men in the community who coerce the students? Dead. Possible police who were going to go along with the suicide story? Dead. The teachers who helped support the story? Dead. The asshole who actually committed the sexual assault, and was already in jail for harassment? Dead.
Such a waste. And really, no justice is going to be served. That poor girl's family is still going to be in fear for their lives. Look how many people were involved in trying to cover up the murder. It involved the police! Do you think the families of the convicted are going to drop this?
Really sad story.
these cops need to be dealt with as well, they've been complicit in Nusrat's death, they've probably participated in countless other acts against other men and women as well.
Because some people have the opinion that it is vengeance, not justice.
Glad we have people like you to defend murderers and tell us they are victims too.
At some point maybe people will think before covering up the burning alive of a sexual assault victim.
If it's between that and "oh well you'll go to jail a bit and be released in 6 months" ?
Eh fuck them. Fuck them good.
