Hell no, it has nothing to do with speech, the press, and if it involves religion it's not protected because it's forcing it on others.

It is an integral part of the Islamic religon.

So? The first amendment grants freedom of religion - the freedom to believe what you want. It does not grant you the right to force your religious practices on other people.

Its about Muslim men killing Muslim women who dishonor thier family, not forcing Islam on anybody.

Don't be stupid - I seriously doubt the Muslim women consent to be killed.

Freedom of Religon trumps human rights.

We all know you dislike Islam, ok!

Slander and libel aren't protected speech under the first amendment because it involves tangible harm to an unwilling victim. For the same reason, religious practices like honor killings and human sacrifice are also not protected and are illegal. Happy now?
