And now for something completely different. ...OR IS IT?

A friend of mine from high school is getting married to her high school sweetheart at this castle in Scotland. Le sigh.

And speaking of love, why you gotta make me hurt you? A soldier beheads the "other man" and brings the head to his wife as she gives birth.

Fucking the wrong person = death? Man that's cold.

Now, that seems pretty reasonable to me. There should definitely be certain people in the world that others should logically expect to be killed for having sex with. For example, I would consider it dangerous to have sex with a woman who has a jealous ex-boyfriend that has military grade training with firearms and hand to hand combat. It's somewhat suicidal to do this with a jealous husband that knows you personally, included where you sleep.

When you're not sleeping with his wife, I mean.

Yeah, but the other man was ALSO a soldier (though he didn't have soul?), so maybe he shoulda armed hisself once he started screwing his buddy's dame.

Kinda makes me wonder what the killer's wife was thinking when she ratted out the dead guy. Wonder if she wanted him killed. I'm sure she knew of her husband's temper.

Heh. I'm not disagreeing that it was erally goddamn stupid. Doing a thing like that indicates zero common sense.

Eesh. The only reasons I can really accept for killing someone is a) your life is in immediate danger from them, or b) they definitely killed someone else. I don't think it's a RATIONAL reaction to CUT OFF THE HEAD of someone your wife cheated on you with. That's just sick. Sorry, no one deserves that. Even if you think it'd be justified - is it worth the consequences that the law hands down for murder?

But then, apparently our legal system thinks it's okay, too... http://www.livejournal.com/users/yatpundit/146587.html
