At the close of the Constitutional Convention in 1787, Dr. James McHenry, a Maryland delegate, followed Benjamin Franklin from Independence Hall. He recorded a question asked by a lady, directed at Dr. Franklin.

The lady asked, "Well Doctor, what have we got? A republic or a monarchy?"

"A republic," replied Dr. Franklin, "if you can keep it."

IN DEFENSE OF MINORITIES!

Another Typical Honor Killing


Muslim shouting "Allahu akbar" beheads wife in front of their six children, throws her head off apartment roof

A particularly horrific honor murder in Germany. The detail about his shouting "Allahu akbar" is in this German story (thanks to Pamela Geller).

"Husband 'butchers wife, 30, in front of their six children before throwing her dismembered head from roof of their apartment,'" by Allan Hall in the Daily Mail, June 4 (thanks to all who sent this in):

A man is under arrest in Germany after killing his wife in front of his six young children and cutting her into pieces.

Orhan Sircasi then ran on to the roof of his apartment building clutching her severed head in one hand and a butcher's knife in the other.

The 32-year-old killer of Turkish origin fought off police as they tried to seize him early this morning by lunging at them with the knife and swinging the head like a club.

Orhan Sircasi threw his wife's head from the roof of the apartment building, landing in the courtyard below ...

After he lunged at police with the severed head of his wife he threw it from the roof of his five storey apartment building to the street below.

He was overpowered on the rooftop in Berlin and taken into custody.

Then officers entered the apartment in the Kreuzberg district of the capital to find the dismembered body of his wife and the six children aged from nine months to ten years.

'They were in a terrible state,' said a neighbour. 'He made them watch as he butchered their mother then cut her up into little pieces.'

Neighbours alerted police in the early hours of the morning after they heard screaming coming from the flat. It is unclear what caused the fatal row.

The children have been put under psychiatric observation as their father was charged with murder.

Stunned neighbours of the man in Koethener Strasse, in the working class Kreuzberg district of Berlin, covered the head with a blue plastic bag until police retrieved it.

Media reported that the man was often violent towards his wife, beating and kicking her if she displeased him, especially after he had been drinking....

I find it strange that the Germans would arrest this man after a Quranically sanctioned honor killing. Maybe if he simply pays the blood price to his in-laws, sharia honor will be satisfied and he can go free...

Where in the Quran is honor killing sanctioned?

Don't the German cops believe in shooting people?

Just wait, they'll give the kids back to him and send him to anger management classes.

Whenever I hear about honor killings now, I think about those activist judges who defend sharia law over constitutional law in court cases...coming to a city near you...
