#1 Arshad went to see his wife and children at Shaguftaâs brothers house where his daughter, Fareeha, asked him for money. Arshad was reportedly angered by the demand and threw acid on his wife and children.

When we asked for money, all dad used to do was tell us sob stories about "when I was your age".
But, then again, we didn't have a 55 gallon drum of acid laying around the house like it appears most Muslims do..

#2 They should lighten up - it was a spontaneous act. Hell, everyone carries a pint or two of acid around with them. Never know when you'll need to etch some glass, clean a gummed-up carburator part, or blind / kill some willful femalians. Sheesh. A passing passion thingy, no big deal. See, he's calm, now.
