re: #233 avspatti

Listen guys … the idea that this girl could be ‘honor-killed’ is not at all farfetched. Have we not read about this kind of thing happening before? Would you want to be the judge who sent her back only to learn she had been murdered by her own family? It’s not worth the chance imo. She is nearly 18, I believe. Let her stay where she is until that birthday, and then, she will have more choices, more opportunities. Even if her parents do not do the evil deed, other relatives could in order to save the family ‘honor’. Uncles, brothers, cousins, etc. Not at all unusual among some groups.

It is not worth the chance.

1. Do you have any reason to believe this family is a threat to their daughter besides their Islam?

2. If merely being Muslim makes people a threat to their own children, why should we stop with this kid?
