well, sort of my thoughts, but I don't agree with anyone in particular, as there should be clear distinction here called 'common sense'.

I don't think because of the actions and the obvious delusional-paranoid statements of some crazy-pyscho-bitch should cause us to debate her sentiments about love, marriage, and lifelong entitlement to ownership, especially when it is used to dismiss her previous actions to assault, mutilate and permanently damage another human being. (we're not dismissing it, and I'm sure prosecutors will not, but she, herself the accused, by addressing the media, is dismissing her admittedly-heinous, negligent, criminal, and moral affronts to society as something altogether less-than-supposed, cavalier even, to her murderous wrath and ignorant state-of-mind to confront her husband's supposed infidelity. There's barely a word that qualifies for how evil and oblivious this person is.)

It's as ridiculous as me, starting a hypothetical argument by posting the Kansas story of twins, wherby one of them strangles and then beheads the other, and states that he had just cause to do it, and should face no legal ramifications whatsoever because they 'were blood, we were brothers, we are the same person'.

It's funny. I'm not sure where I saw it, or if I'm recalling it correctly, but there is this quick memory blurb in mind of a local news network conducting an interview on this scenario, a penis-lopping-off situation, and the crew interviews all these women, and the general consensus was amongst these women was if they caught their husbands cheating on them, they'd do the same thing. It was filmed in Australia, or New Zealand somewhere. Also, there is a certain underground sterotype that you don't piss off a Chinese/ Thai/Southeast Asian woman, or prepare to take precautions of one morning waking up in a pool of blood, missing a certain appendage. It's a cruel joke to make light of the fact if you piss off a woman by being unfaithful, you can be slashed, deformed, even killed, and they'll calmly state it was 'just desserts'.

Not that I'm discounting the previous points made in this thread, but the initial premise of human ownership, and then to take it futher, actual corporeal mutilation, based upon the ramblings of some insane, jealous cold-blood-murdering, stupid, with no consequence for ramifications, just plain-insane woman, living without an ounce of sense in her mind, that's the travesty.

She gets play and recognition for being so ludicrously crazy we need to debate the ethics of basic human rights. Great.

I am all for her immediate lockup, and I also wouldn't mind if this thread were locked up just as quickly.
