17 years old is still a child.
Impressionable and vulnerable Herb.
A 17 year old girl is no longer a 'child'. Many smart girls enter university only a year later.
She knew exactly what she was looking at on the television news services and on the internet when Yazidis were being chased and hounded and raped.
And then the Americans having their throats cut by that London Arab.
And strings of people being led off into the desert to be shot.
And the rest.
Tell me how she filtered out these horrors from her 'understanding' of what to expect over there, and what sort of people these were?
She fell foul of these people ONLY when she found
herself becoming a focus of 'interest' from the pigs around her.
For as long as it was OTHERS receiving their monstrous attentions in the name of 'Allah' and the creation of a caliphate - she was okay with that.
I think what I'm experiencing here is a generation gap with you younger ones. You've grown up in a Modern Day school system in which namby-pamby ideas of 'tolerance, and forgiveness, and political correctness, and the 'customer is always right' bullshit is the prevailing ethic.
