Pakistani Lawyer Wants Mark Zuckerberg Executed
Earthquake Retrofit sends along a piece from The Register reporting on a nightmare scenario of legal jurisdiction on the Internet: a Pakistani lawyer has filed blasphemy charges, carrying the death penalty, against Mark Zuckerberg and other Facebook executives (and the pseudonomous user who initiated the "Draw Muhammad" contest last month). Pakistani police have apparently opened an investigation, according to this Google translation of a BBC Urdu report."

God bless insurgents for killing fag-enabling American troops! God bless AIDS!
God bless laws against stem cell research - if sufferers die because of hampered research, it's God's will!
God bless Anne Coulter and Michelle Malkin for singing the praises of Guantanamo and calling for fair and just treatment of Muslims who have committed no crime!
God bless the brave soldiers who have caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians - for God spoke to Bush and told him he was doing God's will!
God bless our representatives for having the good sense to take away the freedom of 17-year-old sexters, and 20-year-old drinkers, and Satanic cannabis-smokers of any age! God bless the greatest prison population on the planet - being locked up is much better than death!
Except the under-age retards - God bless Texas for releasing them to heaven early!
God bless the Christian unicorn, so much braver and more righteous than the Muslim unicorn!
tl;dr We all suck, but the US is currently having a field-day pointing out how much the other side sucks.
That's an atrocity. The possessive pronoun "its" doesn't contain an apostrophe.
...as opposed to the religion that openly endorses child marriages and whose major "profit" was a child molester himself?
1331461 is only semiprime *sigh* Alas - I am just short of 1337.
A "Christian" is defined as someone who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ. It's pretty obvious to most people that Hitler was pretty much the exact opposite in every way. All Christians fall short in some way or another, but Hitler didn't even try. I've seen no evidence, anyway, that he actually was a Catholic except by people trying to show how bad Christianity is. But, that's beside the point.
Do you have ESP?
What I really expect is for people to be able to tell the difference between an entire religion, and one asshat who claims to follow that religion.
Not when the asshat is able to get the police to open an investigation. Not when the asshat can issue a fatwa that someone else should die, and others try to carry that out. Not when the asshat's religious point of view is part and parcel of the entire structure of government. Not when there is a pattern of asshattery associated with the entire country.
When Rev Phelps says that God hates fags, I don't blame Christianity. I look around and see that the legal system and religious institutions are set up that nutcases like him are allowed to be asshats, because it means freedom of religion and expression for everyone. In this case, I do blame Islam. It is intimately tied to the government, their legal system, and allows, even condones, this sort of thing. It's a (further) indication that Islam is broken in a fundamental way and is incompatible with western civilization. One asshat, that's an outlier; an entire frigging country of government backed asshats, that's a problem.
The more people I meet, the better I like my dog.
