It's happening Here, Folks!

A thirteen-year-old Muslim California girl fled her home to avoid an “arranged marriage” to an unknown Pakistani man in Pakistan. She was found in a motel very close by with a relative and her parents are under investigation for child abuse in the “arranged marriage” scheme, which they deny. She and all their other children have been removed by child services pending the investigation. They say, “Yes, we were planning on a trip to Pakistan and she was excited about it.” Funny way to show her excitement, huh? Sometimes you can’t escape these foolish ways even by coming to the United States. I’d be watching her father for terrorist connections, if I were California authorities. Now they'll probably want to kill her for "dishonoring" her family. Watch out for that. (Reuters)
