Posted by Greg Laden on April 17, 2009 A young couple wished to get married (19 and 21 years of age)against their parent’s wishes, so they tried to elope. They were tracked down by their parents, who had them arrested. Monday, they were shot to death by a firing squad.
The couple had violated the religious beliefs of their families.
Excellence in religion.

Your statement is nearly a non sequitur. You want the military policing every person in the country to prevent idiocy like this? You think a thousand years of broken culture changes overnight? Or are you just another shallow intertoob ideologue bashing things beyond your feeble, flickering comprehension?
