“She was Running Her Mouth.”

Running Her Mouth

Recently, a man in an American prison confessed to his cell mate that he had killed his wife. The fellow occupant of the cell told authorities what he’d heard. Prosecutors asked him to wear a wire so they’d have the evidence they needed to convict the chatty prisoner. Several conversations with the accused murderer were recorded.

Nearly every sentence repeated the reason he killed her: “She was running her mouth.” There were variants, like “She wouldn’t stop running her mouth.”, but the discrepancies only made the motivating factor clearer. He loved his faults so much more than his wife that he couldn’t stand having her criticize him for having them.

“She was Running Her Mouth.”

In Moslem countries, men who suffer from a woman “who is running her mouth” are given immediate authority to “take care of the problem”. Sometimes, they throw acid on the woman. Other times, they beat her. By saying “I divorce you.” three times, the woman can be expelled from home, family, and resources, simply for committing the unpardonable sin of “running her mouth.” Sometimes, a Moslem wife is actually beheaded for “running her mouth”.

Men who are sick of listening to women who “run their mouths” are natural candidates for conversion to Mohammedanism. Male superiority is a cornerstone of that faith, as it is of the cultures who incorporate it.

A great way for Moslems to increase conversions from such men would be to have a “fatwa” issued. A religious decree that allowed men to punish, abandon without financial burden, or kill wives who “run their mouths” would be embraced by most such abusers. It would logically, of course, extend beyond wives to daughters, sisters, mothers, nieces, and neighbors.

The number of Moslems would increase remarkably on issuance of such a decree. While the moral caliber of such converts would not be high, they would certainly “fit in” with little adjustment.
