I try to comprehend the concept of honor killing and I can't (Thank God). That is one real twisted sense of values. This is another one who should tossed into a cell for 99 years.
The argument that this is Mental-Illness attempted murder, honor has nothing to do with it. She forfited the word honor when she picked up the knife.
It's just an offshoot of the death penalty mentality. The girls crime of brining shame on the family is seen to rise to a level requiring the death penalty.
