Honor Killings and Gay People

Was Ahmet Yildiz the victim of Turkey’s first gay honour killing?

Almost certainly not the first, but the first to receive public attention.

    So long as it was not “the state” that carried out the murders, Ew Rockwell and his minions would be happy to kill gay people. You
    would probably call on the state to stop them. Statist!

    No, that would mean he’s a communist. To call on the monopolistic use of state force to prevent a stoning would mean relying on police paid through tax dollars wrested through force from individuals for the purported good of the community, a COLLECTIVE! There is no community. There are only individuals who would be free were it not for the coercive force of Stalinists masquerading as do-gooders and civil servants for the sake of favored minority collectives who are given preferential treatment by government. Gays, blacks, American Indians, people in wheelchairs, blind people and their dog guides who expect some sort of special treatment. Man is enslaved by collectives, except in the case of the mass market, where mass man — the individual — is given freedom of choice among products to buy, Bibles to read, widgets to make, resources like land and labor to exploit for competitive advantage and, if all goes well on the free lifetime upward mobility climb, retirement in Miami Beach. If ennui sets in, there’s always a new mountaintop to blow up in Appalachia for coal, another oil well to drill, another forest to cut, another genetically modified or farmed fish to fry.

    Money, money, money, money, money, money, money makes the world go round, the world go round.
