Man killed wife for making vegetarian dinner: prosecutors

Man killed wife for making vegetarian dinner: prosecutors. “A Pakistani immigrant beat his wife to death in their Brooklyn home after she made the mistake of cooking him lentils for dinner instead of the hearty meal of goat meat that he craved, according to court papers.” (Please accept our apologies in advance for the following:) Guess you could say she got his goat.

  • I got to the . Main site, just not that clip. CAIR p r probably objected and had it removed.

      • Hmmm that' is weird....It was a video of some Islamic extremists having a "explosive belt demonstrative party (you know like a tuperware party) and there is a premature detonation ending the party with a bang...

      • I looked earlier after Rose mentioned it, just searched again (because the Reds suck and they're in Arizona and I turned it off in the 4th) and found 3 that were deleted. The blog posts were still there, but the vid was gone, because they CAIR?

      • I don"t know why the hell I get double posts....It happens every once in a while..maybe it's my computer when the NSA checks on me...

        • I've noticed several double posts over the last few months. All on different posters. I figure it's a glitch in the WordPress NSA bug.

  • Well, I applied for a building permit for a new house from the city planning board. The plans included the primary building to be 100 ft. tall and 400 ft. wide, with 12 gun turrets at various heights, and windows all over the place and a loud outside entertainment sound system that was going to entertain the whole neighborhood. It would have parking for 200 cars, and I was going to paint it snot green with pink trim.

    The City Council told me: "Forget itIT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN!"

    So, I sent in the application again, but this time I called it a 'Mosque'.

    Work starts on Monday.

  • I used to go to Carabana every year in Toronto and always made sure I bought a good goat sandwich from a street vendor. Caribbeans call them rotis (sic?) and they leave the bones in there. Now, I'm like Andrew Zimmerman in that I can eat and enjoy anything, and those goat rotis are damn good food, but I have never been able to understand the point of leaving the bones in a sandwich.

    • So you infidels choke on them?

      I'm sorry, great story. But I could not help it.
      I know, I know → corner...

      • Off with you! The meat closest to the bone is the most tender and flavorful. And I just realized I am going to regret posting this.

      • First time I bought one, my second-generation Jamaican friend warned me before I chomped down on it. Otherwise I might have lost a tooth. You have to bite slow and careful, and if you run into a big hunk of bone, you spit it out after chewing all the meat off it. He saved my tooth by warning me.

        I used to love Carabana. Canada is full to the brim with Caribbeans, don't ask me why, and Carabana in Toronto has what must be the longest parade in the world. If you park yourself near the end on a hot day, you can literally watch half or fully naked women collapsing from the exhaustion of marching and dancing for all those miles. Very entertaining.

        First time I went, I got separated from my crowd and tried to take a train back to my hotel on my own. (I'm really not a big city person.) When I realized I was on the wrong train, headed God knows where, I started asking people on the train for help and directions. My car was full of Jamaicans, and Jamaicans speak English, and they were absolutely the friendliest people I've ever met, but we could not communicate at all. I've never laughed so hard in my whole life. Talk about being divided by a common language! Someone would start giving me earnest directions for how to get to my hotel and I would not understand one word they were saying. Then someone else would try - same result. Everybody thought it was hilarious. Finally, a young beauty decided to escort me back to my hotel... and THAT, my friends, is why I fell in love with Carabana.

  • I've had some wonderful vegetarian dinners, but I'll also admit that everything is better with some goat meat added.

        • In my dreams. Thanks for the mid-life crisis moment making me think about it.

          [full disclosure; you made me take a peek @ the finances, do a little mental arithmetic, calculate future earnings, add a little Actuarial Sciences work, consider the girls and grands... The answer is no. lmao]

          Totaled (it wasn't my fault!) mine 30 & change years ago, but it was a '70 and blue. Didn't realize what I had being 19 or it would have been babied (and stored) from the day I bought it.

          • A GTO has always been a dream of mine. Closest I ever got was a '71 LeMans, basically the same car with a different trim package and the notorious "slip and slide" transmission.

          • Can hook you a ride in a classic Old's 442, and swear to God the original in-dash 8-trac player still works.

            [not a total gear-head, but the sound of that thing when you turn the key and sit there rumbling while the thing is just waiting to pounce...almost better than ... almost ;)

          • I used to date a girl that had a 442. She drove that damned thing like a NASCAR driver!

          • We ARE ladies, so the comment isn't meant for us. Another troll with no manners. Bless his heart.

          • hey ghostie, i bet poppaj knows about the just waiting to pounce, about the car too. :D HA! I kill me!

  • ah la la ah la la .. get your stinkin' muzzie ass in the keetchin and make me a goat sammich bitch or I keel you.

  • “He culturally believed he had the right to hit his wife and discipline his wife.”

    I wonder if he's muslim.

    • Red, you wonder IF he's a muslim? WTF? He's from Pakistan, of course he is. I sort of agree with him about vegetarian meals, but I must question his preference in meat. Goat? No no, go get yourself a nice cut of New York strip, fire up the grill, & have at it.

      • That's like sayin' Oh He's from Texas, he must be Christian. Also, goat is awesome! I've had NY strips that were culturally relevant to a jockey, so yeah, I LIKE to eat goat.

        after researching - surprising info:
        "Pakistan, Islam in". Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies. Oxford University Press. Retrieved 29 August 2010. "Approximately 97 percent of Pakistanis are Muslim. The majority are Sunnis following the Hanafi school of Islamic law. Between 10 and 15 percent are Shias, mostly Twelvers."

        i guess i ought to have known cuz he's wearing one of them muslim hats in court. good call dannyhboy

    • Yeah, I wonder if the female defense attorney choked out those words or is she politically correct enough to think under the banner of cultural relativism that she can live with the statement.

      • And if she loses, he'll culturally believe he has the right to choke her out, as well.

          • Aye. Then of course she'll use all the modern-culturally rellevant bs the courts need to survive in this age of heightened media whoring. And then after she's been through this muck she'll become a Republican nominee for congress or some such and change the system from the inside.

            sorry i did/do agree with you, but i'm becoming more cynical the further we get into the new age of human mosquito enlightenments.

          • That would make it a bit more palatable, hopefully, she's not putting her all into the defense.

        • And right after she springs this Islamic turd with some sort of Racial Intolerance defense, she will then promptly run for public office, as a democrat of course.

  • This is why I do all the cooking here. I would go batshit crazy if someone tried to make me eat vegetarian. I'm a vagitarian.
