This strikes me as the epitome of mansplaining.

(The letter from the Taliban, I mean... not the article, or Gordon Brown. Ugh.)

It sounds to me like, "We shot you because you spread a rumor about us and hurt our feelings". it is so ridiculous.

And a child on top of that. I don't know how you could not feel silly getting your gitch into a bunch over something a teenager said.

This. How high and mighty do you think you come across as, if you behave like a spoiled 5 year old in this kind of situation? Unfortunately, a spoiled 5 year old with a lot of spoiled friends and access to guns...

My thoughts can pretty much be summed up thus:

What Gordon Brown said.

This. My first thought was, "Liar!"

fuck the Taliban.

Wow, fuck this guy so hard. He's scared of a 15 year old girl and so must shoot her to defend against her 'sword'? Her fucking 'sword' made of words and paper?

The ultimate misogynistic coward.

As tabaqui said above, these fuckers are the ultimate misogynistic cowards. Shaking in their boots because of the words of a little girl and lashing out violently to silence her.
