The "culture card" is only going to work for so much longer. I'm glad to see some countries have sane and intelligent judges. Via LGF:
Three Pakistani gang rapists who are facing life in jail yesterday begged a judge to be pardoned, citing cultural differences that led to the brutal attack, immaturity on their part and hardship within their families if they were imprisoned.
. . .
The girls were repeatedly raped, threatened with knives and bullets and one was told the other had been killed because she had resisted her attackers. None of the men can be named because the younger brothers, MMK and MRK, 18, were minors at the time. Another man, known as RS, is 25.
. . .
The brothers are representing themselves because they believe an anti-Muslim conspiracy has prevented a fair hearing. Their father, a practising doctor, told the court they should be pardoned because they “did not know the culture of this country”.
"Nobody told us gang-rape was somehow frowned upon in the kufr lands!"
Do we seriously have to start including lessons on matters like this in the naturalization process?
