Thousands of Women Killed are murdered by their families each year in the name of family "honor." The murders frequently go unreported, the perpetrators unpunished, and the concept of family honor justifies the act in the eyes of some societies. Whats your opinion?

That's horrible. They have no honor. Their own sick cowardly acts shame their family name. Someone that would kill a family member for honor is a dog.

It's all about deviance. This terrible act is not acceptable for most modern societies but for some, believe it or not, it is! Something that is considered as deviant for us might not be the same thing for others. In my opinion, if all societies believe in God and follow His commandments, we'll all have the same concept of deviance.
