"Mohamed Hadfi, 31, gouged out his 23-year-old wife Samira Bari's eyes following a heated argument in their apartment in the southern French city of Nimes in July 2003 after she refused to have sex with him."

The man has been sentenced to 30 years just this week for the heinous act that has left a woman permanently blind.

Good Lord! I can think of a million things to say but none of them seem appropriate.

(You know that never stopped me.)

My first thought was, "How ugly can this guy be that he thought blinding his wife would improve their sex life?"

 

[southcitymom]

I was thinking more along the lines of I'll bet she didn't see that coming! I know, I know...I should be shot! :silenced:

At least you didn't say something about how this gives new meaning to the phrase, "giving a girl the eye."

 

[mister happy]

I say an eye for an eye... and pull that freak's teeth out too!

 

[southcitymom]

Or something like "I've heard of going blind from too much masturbation - is this the other side of the coin?"

I'm glad you guys are joking about this, because I don't want this one to really sink in... man is this ever disgusting!

Wow. Normally the woman rips out her eyes after we have sex.

 

[Nova]

Wow. Normally the woman rips out her eyes after we have sex.

You win!

 

[hipmamajen]

Thanks for the giggle, Mr. Happy, I needed it after this story.

I don't even know what to say.

Sigh.

 

[Nova]

I don't know about you guys, but I am staying away from the thread about the girl with the fork in her head.

You're absolutely right - no good can come from that!

Islamic law supports such acts. France is 13% Muslim and growing fast. Muslims show little desire to assimiliate. When France is 25% Muslim, Islamic law will follow.

I agree. How horrible. I can't even imagine being able to do that to someone. How disgusting.

How will that conversion to Islamic law work, Wudge? Why is 25% the threshold?

 

[JanetElaine]

France is not 13% muslem. Without checking the percentage facts, I'm going to believe your 13%, but say it like this: 13% of people living in France are muslem. That's different.

And, what Nova asked. I don't see any republic going to sharia any time soon.
