No Arab women were saved in the making of this thread.
Its purpose, I believe now, is only to bash liberals.
"Well, I'm gonna agree with the misogynist Bill Maher that liberals love Muslims even though they're all awful, terrible, rotten people who do bad things to their daughters."
As our own nation murders its mentally ill women (and men) in our jails. As we warehouse our boys and girls in facilities that Dickens would be shocked to see. As we allow our Congress and state legislatures to reduce women's rights to reproductive choice to none in so many places. Where are all of these "daughter lovers" when Planned Parenthood funding is cut? When judges in the US tell women to "forgive their rapists?" Nowhere to be seen, from the usernames I see here just soooooooo concerned about women.
For fucks sake, I feel like such a fool for taking the bait in this nasty ass thread. This is just like the Willy Horton days, when you were called a "liberal _____-lover" if you were white and defended "those people" and you all fucking know what I'm talking about.
You want to talk about barbarism? How about a nation that lets cops boil a man to death in a shower? Or kill a mentally ill woman for speeding? We have nothing to goddamned brag about in the uncivilized behavior department. But I suspect the liberal-bashers on this thread know that.
This thread has nothing to do with concern for Arab women, and everything to do with blaming it on liberals like everything else that fools blame on liberals, and it's disgusting to read on this site.
I will paraphrase Jesus: If you want to criticise another culture or another person, take that enormous motherfucking PLANK out of your own eyes first. This thread is sick. Arab women are simply being used here to fit someone's sick political agenda.
But well played, hand-wringing liberal bashers! Well played.
