its never acceptable, shocking how in this day and age this still goes on.

[andy-hughes]

I really don't see how murder can be 'acceptable' whatever the motive behind it may be supposed to be.

[andy-hughes]

I cross-posted with emmie and I suspect we will not be alone in expressing that view.

[Prudie]

I will add 'is this acceptable?" is not exactly a thread opener is it, it's like asking is the Pope Catholic etc

[Spicerack]

Are you expecting someone on here to say yes?
Wasn't acceptable 13 years ago when it happened, either.

[Deskdiary]

Is it ever acceptable to be murdered? Err, No.

[AuntPollyGrey]

What an utterly silly question.

[Mamyalynne]

Murdering someone is unacceptable.

Murdering someone for being who they are is unacceptable.

[Tilly2]

Agreed, APG.

[emmie]

wrongly worded perhaps piggynose....

[royfromaus]

Obviously acceptable to those that carried out the murder.

Homophobia is still rife in black communities and ...oh, crap you've got me...

I've been racist, I just couldn't help being racist could I.

[Lie-in King]

No, of course it isn't.

How can it not be unacceptable?

The only instances where I've heard it deemed as 'acceptable' or maybe even legal to murder someone for their sexuality is in some strict Muslim countries.

Bizarre question

[ummmm]

Very bad wording in the OP.

Not acceptable at all. The rape was the biggest insult to her sexuality....and they still felt the need to murder her. Disgusting.

[piggynose]

Of course its unacceptable. Sorry for stating the obvious.
