Bringing Party Favors to Hell

Y'know, I'm not a fan of all of Joss Wheedon's ouvre-- I watched the first couple of seasons of Buffy and enjoyed it well enough, same for a season or so of Angel. I loved Firefly. But I have to say I have a lot more respect for the man himself today, after reading this than I did before.

I had somehow managed to be ignorant of the event he's writing about (the "honor killing" of Dua Khalil). I'm infuriated and saddened by it, though strangely and tragically unsurprised.
