Bastille Day Bombings
 
Once again a tragic event has occured by twisted people in the name of some version of a religion that probably is uncomprehensible to most sane human beings.

What confuses me though is already on facecrap people are covering there pictures with French flags, which is highly commendable, if you wish to show your support in that way. But what I find most interesting is that on the 3rd July over 250 people were killed in Baghdad and I did not see one Iraqi flag or post concerning that incident.

Is that because we associate that area for these deeds and therefore feel differently reference the loss of life??

4 Nothing to do with Islam.
5 Await next one.

She does have a point, why do we wait, why don't we start imprisoning these people (like they do in the UK)? After all, we are, whether we like it or not, in a war.

Canada has its own share of Islamists / fundies. And anyone criticising minority religious groups and their bigotry gets charged with hate crime and attacked by regressive liberals.

Move to the Marquesas or Argentina to really get away from old world issues , but Alaska is also pretty safe:lol:

May I point out that these things dont happen in extremely cold weather areas
so if you want to weed out this extremist problem, I have just given you a solution, make it snow and your extremist problems will lessen by 80% atleast
