Whats more offensive to you

Is the korean getting his head cut off more offensive

or

That saudi arabia doesn't allow women to drive automobiles. It's taboo to suggest that women be permitted to drive.

Is this really a question? I think you're in the wrong forum. Useless Blabber is about 5 forums down.

I consider the beheaded Korean

and women's rights to be politics.

Don't you?

Or do you think that women's rights are useless blabber?

i say women not being able to drive... cause sexual equality is one of the first steps to civility.

cause ppl have been cutting off heads since we were cavemen.

i find the recent rash of beheading very ironic so soon after the arms race.

its like they are trying to remind gadget obsessed americans that it doesn't take much more than effort to kill someone.

next they will just rip ppl to bits with their bare hands... ala drawn & quartered.

murder is in no way civil ever
whether its beheading or using a hydrogen bomb to suck all the air out of the area.
doesn't matter if it is the murder of civilians or soldiers
its all wrong

They're both offensive in their own right. I don't think it's fair to say one is better or worse than the other.

I know... we should be... dis-arming... har har har...





In all serious, it's hard to do a comparative of those two without a proper basis to compare and contrast the two I would think...

minority (the acts against one) vs majority (the acts against a whole subset of our species: the female gender)

maybe subset wasn't the best word but you get the point! Still neither one really offends me to tell the truth...it somehow doesn't affect me...I'm over here...

Beheading has been going on for a long time, hon, and has remained rather popular (although I believe stoning beats it out for the preferred capital punishment). The news networks just haven't covered the act, and it's more shocking to present it as a 'new horror' rather than a 'new to us' horror.

Beheading is definately not a new thing

Homosexuality is outlawed in Saudi Arabia and punishable by beheading.

Happens frequently
