    How about we just eliminate all of the Prophet Mohammed's followers from the face of the earth?

    Maybe the banks should tell them if they don't stop the they'll retaliate by bombing Mecca with pigs.

    I've really had enough of these shit-heads.

    Funny how they have exactly the same misdirected opinion of you.

    Do you not recognize yourself in the mirror here? A small subset of a group of people blame an entire group of another people for the actions of a small subset of them.
