gunga galunga: So is this going to be like the threads about the father who shot up his daughter's laptop because she trashed him on facebook where farkers get on their high horse about how some parents discipline their children?

This is totally different. The other guy used a gun. Guns are dangerous, so his actions were indefensible.

Bondith: poodebunkr
I wonder why her dad didn't just off himself instead...since it was his seed what spawned her, I'd say he should be blamed for the family shame. Jerk!

It couldn't possibly be his fault. He's a man. It's the woman's fault when she provokes him into raping her, it's the woman's fault when her two X-chromosomes don't spontaneously generate a Y to give him a son, and it's her fault for being and independent person and not blindly obeying him so he can feel like he's in control of something.

I don't want to live on this planet any more.

Neither do I.

With weaksauce trolling like that, the internet's no fun.

Acharne: MaudlinMutantMollusk: Obviously we need to export more jobs there

/why do we support these third-world shiatholes, anyway?

Because they make cheap goods to sell shiatheads like you in shiatholes like 'whereever you live'.

Oh, snap

/guess you told me, huh, big fella?

Life immitates oglaf.com?

Fathet definately wasn't a Brony.

you_idiot: I can't think of anything less honorable than killing your children.

Voting Republican is up there.

I clicked on the link fully expecting to see that this happened in Los Angeles. New Delhi was a relief.

Um.

Fail?

It's a millitant religion founded by a warrior caste.

I think he meant it would ironic to call it "the religion of peace" because it's not.

Wow.

They have to carry daggers at all times.

This isn't some love and tollerate cult. They have their own martial arts, specialized weaponry, and field tactics.

Honestly, it's kind of cool, except when they do stuff like this.

moops: Investigators say the man, Oghad Singh, had paraded the head through the village on his way to the police station.

The religion of peace strikes again!

/amirite?

When I was a kid, I used to see these movies about beautiful, exotic India and thought the place was pretty cool and wanted to visit there some day. The women in these films (made in the late 40's, early 50's with such stars as Bob Hope, Bing Cosby and others) always were beautiful and dressed in colorful, sexy serape's.

The people were quaintly friendly and strange. The landscape lush and beautiful and the food exotic and tasty looking.

I was in my 20's when I found out they were basically mainly dirt poor, ignorant, superstitious savages with a strict cast system who had no problem with exterminating each other in an assortment of nasty, traditional ways for some of the stupidest reasons.

I also learned about how females were on the lowest end of the stick, with new husbands often killing their new brides in horrible ways just to walk off with the dowry the brides parents were required to pay. (One guy scalded his wife to death with boiling oil and basically told the cops she slipped. The cops -- male -- agreed, commiserated with him and let him go. His second wife seemed to have slipped also and died from being scalded head to toe with boiling water. Again the cops were appalled at his bad luck and let him go.)

Then I learned about the trickery the famous 'Holy men' used in their awe inspiring acts, the cast of 'untouchables' who couldn't even get care at a hospital, yet the other casts depended on them to do their dirty work -- like hauling human sewage out of the cities. Following that, I discovered the massive ship breaking business, where workers were paid pennies a day to work with no safety gear, exposed to a witches brew of toxins, stripping ships from all countries down to scrap to be sold.

This enterprise turned a couple of hundred miles of seashore toxic, but no one cared. Women and kids scrambled in the mud to collect small bits of lost metal to turn in for pennies so the owners could get every last dime out of a ship they bought.

All employees were searched when leaving work to make sure none were trying to sneak out a bit of brass or copper, which they might sell for a few cents. The workers lived in company owned 'houses' which made the slave quarters of early America look like luxury hotels and were magnanimously fed by the company for free: a diet high in cheap, basic rice, with a few vegetables and very little meat or fish tossed in.

The workers drew their rations at the beginning of the week and had to buy local meat, fish or vegetables to add to the stuff to keep from actually starving. Rice alone is not sufficient to keep a person alive and a hard working person can run into protein deficiency trying to live off it without adequate protein supplies: like meat or fish or beans.

The cute little feisty kids I'd see in the movies also tended to be close to an endangered species. No child labor laws. Plus, parents, especially the father, could kill them for besmirching the family honor in a number of ways.

This was after WW2. I was very aware of parents in the battle zones dying to keep their kids safe, often fighting ferociously with enemy soldiers and taking as many of them with them in the process.

In India, parents killed kids for embarrassing them. I guess during wars, they just tossed the kids at the enemy and ran like hell.

When I learned that the famous sex book, 'The Kama sutra' came from there, I first wondered how and then why.

That was over 40 years ago. The nation has changed a lot since then, but only in erratic ways. People still bath in the Holy Ganges River which is essentially a huge open sewer, which also serves as a burial ground -- along which lives a cast of untouchables who salvage and often eat parts of the deceased bodies drifting down stream.

Nice place.

It's a combination of dream-like beauty and hellish nightmares.

And we here in the US send thousands of jobs over there for the cheap labor costs.
