India and Pakistan have entirely different cultures. If I had to be a woman in either, I would choose India, even thought their own record on women's rights is questionable. Anyhoo, killing a woman in Pakistan is nothing. If we made a thread every time one was murdered for being raped, or for "shaming" her family, or for some other excuse people seem to be coming up with, then we'd have no room for other threads. The simple fact is that Islam rules Pakistan, and parts of Islam are sick.
