Thankfully Dubai is still much safer than most other majro cities due to strict laws aiming at preserving family and cultural values."</i><br /><br />This case, and the many like this prove just how safe the UAE is... for rapists. And I can see exactly how punishing a young rape victim helps preserve family and cultural values.Tainted Femalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01497914886022943495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15456688.post-67531723415774134992010-06-22T16:57:33.435+04:002010-06-22T16:57:33.435+04:00Protecting rapists and jailing women who report th...Protecting rapists and jailing women who report them.<br /><br />That's the kind of thing that "keeps a safe society"??<br /><br />What planet are you from?Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18397103747971860352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15456688.post-15424062500280317882010-06-22T09:20:02.204+04:002010-06-22T09:20:02.204+04:00Dont worry Tainted Female, Dubai isnt missing you ...Dont worry Tainted Female, Dubai isnt missing you either!<br />Some rules may seem ahrsh here, but they are necessary to keep a safe society.
