While I don't condone this happening, I'm not going to lose any sleep over this news either.

[VOA]

Nigeria, roughly divided into a mainly Muslim north and Christian south,
has been hit by sectarian violence in the past.

...and when Christians finally feel they can't take any more killing
of Christians by an insane mob killing over...CARTOONS...
NOW Nigeria is a news story because of those awful, murderous
maurading Christians.

I'm gonna' be ill.

[TheHound]

But he said the violence was "not a question of Christian or Muslim".

Haha, Right.

[Proud_USA_Republican]

You bet your ass the BBC will MAKE IT FRONT PAGE NEWS because this time its christians doing the killing.

[M203M4]

A photographer for Reuters news agency said some the victims had been burnt and some had had their stomachs cut open.

Is this to make sure they kill any child a pregnant mother is carrying (as has been witnessed in other conflicts, in south America, across Africa, etc)? Repulsive.

[VOA]

If I were King, I'd have Nigeria be a nice peaceful and friendly place.

But this is the real world and the Islamic demographic of Nigeria is getting
meaner and deadlier.

While I'd rather not see vigilante, revenge-style street killings...
that may just be just about the only way to make it clear to the Nigeria Muslims
that they won't drive the Christians into the sea.

I should care? Muslims oppress anybody they can and attack anybody they can't oppress. When somebody has enough of it and hits the Muslims back it's big news. We haven't hit 'em hard enough yet.

The only way to end the Muslim threat is to hit them so hard they don't dare raise a hand against us again. We will have to do to the Muslim world as was done to Japan and Germany in WWII. Otherwise our children and grandchildren will be fighting this war.

It is within our power to end it sooner rather than later, and we should.

[ApplegateRanch]

Forgive them, Father; for they know not what they do...but don't stop them for a few days.

[ChristianDefender]

Christians could be the most kind and friendly amongst religions in the world but be warned muzzies, when we had enough of your oppression... we will fight back, and we're unstoppable...

[CzarNicky]

payback's a bitch and the muslims have earned 1400 years of it.

This must be the reason I have not heard back from my Nigerian friend I sent a $5,000 earnest money check to last month, and why he has failed to make the $3 million dollar deposit in my checking account.

[RightWhale]

Nigeria is a big country, lots of people. There is the religious element, but it appears the problem is tribal, although tribes of 30 million each stretches the idea of tribe a little.

[DannyTN]

I hope my beautiful white model girlfriends who were recently trapped in Nigeria after vacationing there aren't caught up in this. I just paid their hotel bill so that they could come straight here and live with me.

[GaryMontana]

I agree with you 110%.

The enemy is islam!

[popdonnelly]

The Christians wouldn't have done this if the Muslims hadn't given them the cause to do it.

[BW2221]

For years Muslims have been slaughtering Christians. Just look at the Sudan.

[paul51]

Groups of armed youths rampaged through the city attacking Muslims, in apparent retaliation for the deaths of Christians in riots in the north.

That's going to offend somebody. Oh well. No tolerance for the intolerant is sound policy.

[metesky]

It sounds as though it's just as much a tribal thing as a religious thing.

[Nuc1]

I know you care. There are many innocents on both sides. The sooner it is ended the fewer lives will be lost. If we wait it will approach hell on earth before it is over.
