qu1j0t3for some people it's more terrifying than death.Apr 05 00:00
eikonosrightApr 05 00:00
qu1j0t3if it's strong enough to make you murder your children without blinkingApr 05 00:00
qu1j0t3how is a few courses going to counter it?Apr 05 00:00
eikonosand then there's the afghan girl who got shot because she wanted to go to schoolApr 05 00:00
qu1j0t3that's what i want to know.Apr 05 00:00
qu1j0t3eikonos: i am talking about things that happen in Canada, but yeah, it's related.Apr 05 00:00
qu1j0t3eikonos: you remember the five dead girls recently?Apr 05 00:00
eikonoschildren always seek to establish their own identity apart from their parents at a certain ageApr 05 00:01
eikonosunless they live at home forever...Apr 05 00:01
qu1j0t3right, and then the parents kill them, if it involves boyfriends.Apr 05 00:01
qu1j0t3i am not sure how citizenship education will fix this.Apr 05 00:01
eikonosi wouldn't say it will "fix" it, but i would say it improves the situationApr 05 00:01
qu1j0t3  "Schools are the perfect space for facilitating integration"Apr 05 00:01
qu1j0t3they don't appear to have done their homework.Apr 05 00:01
eikonosand the best argument against it is finding something betterApr 05 00:01
qu1j0t3no that's not the best argument against it.Apr 05 00:02
qu1j0t3those who say education will work should bring evidenceApr 05 00:02
eikonosi think i already didApr 05 00:02
qu1j0t3because it smells like they don't understand the problem very well.Apr 05 00:02
eikonosbut if you've got something better, that's fineApr 05 00:02
qu1j0t3here they are talking about "schools" again.Apr 05 00:02
qu1j0t3i am questioning whether educaiton works.Apr 05 00:02
qu1j0t3you're allowed to ask the question too.Apr 05 00:03
qu1j0t3saying "any better ideas?" doesn't answer that question.Apr 05 00:03
qu1j0t3  "One of the major causes of violence against women is tribal patriarchy and the emphasis on prestige of the family, community or tribe, she said."Apr 05 00:04
qu1j0t3I agreeApr 05 00:04
qu1j0t3tribe being the key wordApr 05 00:04
qu1j0t3  'Next year’s event will focus on the need to engage leaders of the community and faith groups, corporate Canada, ethnic media and private philanthropists'Apr 05 00:04
qu1j0t3  'She called for better use of documents, such as the citizenship guide at the time of immigration, both in the countries of origin and upon arrival in Canada along with mandatory courses about universal human rights and the laws of Canada'Apr 05 00:05
qu1j0t3i am pretty sure that the family recently convicted were well aware they were committing murder under canadian lawApr 05 00:05
eikonosthe one with the car forced into the canal?Apr 05 00:06
qu1j0t3yesApr 05 00:06
eikonosyeahApr 05 00:06
eikonosthe father is a control freakApr 05 00:06
qu1j0t3so awareness of the law wasn't proofApr 05 00:06
qu1j0t3he wasn't an aberrationApr 05 00:06
eikonosso laws won't helpApr 05 00:06
qu1j0t3he was only following the rules of his tribeApr 05 00:06
eikonosin his caseApr 05 00:06
qu1j0t3well you raise an interesting pointApr 05 00:07
qu1j0t3okay, i agree with you that education will REDUCE the incidenceApr 05 00:07
qu1j0t3and if it is VIGOROUS, maybe even more soApr 05 00:07
eikonosnah, i think in his case, it's all about him and the "honor" bit only came up because he didn't want to say, "i was willing to kill them to get my own way"Apr 05 00:07
qu1j0t3well, it clearly falls into that category of eventApr 05 00:07
qu1j0t3it's not a personal issueApr 05 00:07
eikonosby the sounds of it, he regularly resorted to anger and violence in order to get his own wayApr 05 00:08
qu1j0t3for example, it would never have occurred to male children.Apr 05 00:08
qu1j0t3it wasn't an aberration or isolated incidentApr 05 00:08
qu1j0t3it was a result of a belief systemApr 05 00:08
qu1j0t3remember, women participated in the crime, tooApr 05 00:08
eikonosyesApr 05 00:08
qu1j0t3and other menApr 05 00:08
eikonosand his other sonApr 05 00:08
qu1j0t3you could say he was Charles Manson, but...Apr 05 00:08
qu1j0t3it is part of a patternApr 05 00:08
qu1j0t3they killed women, only womenApr 05 00:09
eikonosrightApr 05 00:09
eikonosex-wife and two daughtersApr 05 00:09
qu1j0t3ah only 3... i keep thinking 5Apr 05 00:09
eikonosi think just 3Apr 05 00:09
qu1j0t3rightApr 05 00:09
eikonosbut only women either wayApr 05 00:09
qu1j0t3and for disobedienceApr 05 00:09
qu1j0t3so it is exactly the templateApr 05 00:09
qu1j0t3of a patriarchal belief driven crimeApr 05 00:09
qu1j0t3anyway, i agree with you. education will reduce this. and maybe it needs to be very aggressive education.Apr 05 00:10
eikonosit's really following the template laid out in the judaic religionsApr 05 00:10
eikonosthe story of isaac is freakyApr 05 00:10
eikonosimhoApr 05 00:10
qu1j0t3it is just worryingly close to Conservative rhetoric about Canadian values, that's allApr 05 00:10
eikonosit says a lotApr 05 00:10
qu1j0t3yes, i knowApr 05 00:11
qu1j0t3this is prehistoric stuff Apr 05 00:11
eikonosi think the story of isaac is religion in a nutshellApr 05 00:11
eikonosfamily values is coded languageApr 05 00:11
eikonossame as honor killingApr 05 00:11
eikonosin fact, honor killing is a family valueApr 05 00:11
qu1j0t3i prefer to call it tribalApr 05 00:12
qu1j0t3family is a kind of modern termApr 05 00:12
eikonosfair enough. but "family values" is a key wordApr 05 00:12
qu1j0t3in these situations the tribe takes precedence over familyApr 05 00:12
qu1j0t3yes it is, it's co-opted by modern christiansApr 05 00:12
eikonosrightApr 05 00:13
eikonosneither about family nor valuesApr 05 00:13
qu1j0t3it's a figleaf for something that is super-familyApr 05 00:13
qu1j0t3indeedApr 05 00:13
qu1j0t3so let's draft a campaignApr 05 00:13
qu1j0t3"In Canada, we care about our families. We don't kill them. Get it?"Apr 05 00:14
eikonosso "The only honorable family is a dead family" is out? ;)Apr 05 00:14
qu1j0t3"Your daughter dates a goy. You don't kill her. Get it?"Apr 05 00:15
qu1j0t3i dunno, i don't think the conservatives are the right people to draft this message.Apr 05 00:15
qu1j0t3"Your daughter has sex. You don't throw her out of hte house. Oh, wait, We conservatives do. Never mind"Apr 05 00:15
eikonosmaybe we can get someone to write these family values down in a listApr 05 00:20

qu1j0t3eikonos: We value, uh, diversity. Yeah. Apr 05 00:21
qu1j0t3eikonos: and , uh, the environment.Apr 05 00:21
qu1j0t3eikonos: and hmmm Freedom yeahApr 05 00:21
qu1j0t3eikonos: like, any good idea  you can think of, is diametric to Conservative policyApr 05 00:22
qu1j0t3bit of a problemApr 05 00:22
qu1j0t3eikonos: we value... not killing people ........ unless they're like female, or nativeApr 05 00:22
qu1j0t3eikonos: or Polish in airportsApr 05 00:22
qu1j0t3eikonos: we favour not beating people up... unless they are dirty protesters who had it coming. ..... or studentsApr 05 00:23
qu1j0t3this is all getting very problematicApr 05 00:23
eikonosso the mission statement is a lie?Apr 05 00:23
qu1j0t3maybe we should just build some more prisonsApr 05 00:23
qu1j0t3"We value a safe society. But just in case, here, have some free guns. And note these gleaming new prisons"Apr 05 00:24
