From the Mail Online:
More than 770 suspected cases were reported to the Forced Marriage Unit this year, up from 152 in 2005.
If the trend continues, by the end of this year more than 1,540 Britons will have been coerced into a marriage they do not want to enter – an increase of more than 913 per cent.
The practice affects mainly young Asian women, with more than a third of cases involving those aged under 18. One in six victims are under 16.
What a young Asian woman may look like, according to the article:

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
One does get tired of pointing out the illogic of such things, but it does shed some light on the reason some desperate folks turn to terrorism. When your postmodernist and hence multiculturalist opponents have adopted the validity of non-logical arguments as one of their postulates, then rational discussion becomes meaningless and likely even counter productive.
It seems to me that there are only two paths at this point to empowering a logically based culture, and that’s either the complete reduction of civilization to the point where only the rational can survive (farm correctly or die) or a lawless cadre of modernist terrorists (or vigilanties if you prefer) to ride into every college town and string up the 10-15 postmodernist professors in the humanities department. The only question is will the former happen first as a result of postmodernist green thought or the later as a sort of neo-nietzchen revolution.

Problem: It’s easier to rob and pillage than farm.
> string up the 10-15 postmodernist professors in the humanities department
Slightly illegal, and after a while, liable to be met with resistance.
How can this happen? Please review more, I’m curious about this issue. Anyway, is the woman in the picture an Asian? I thought she was Caucasian…
