An American on a Greek island vacation after graduating from college was beaten to death by a mob and eight people have been arrested in the case, police said.

Greek police said Saturday that the arrests in the beating death of Barkari Henderson, 22, of Austin, Texas, included six Serbian nationals.

Henderson suffered fatal head injuries in the beating early Friday on the island Zakinthos.

He was at a bar with friends. The bar’s location is a tourist section known for frequently rowdy behavior by young foreign tourists, the Associated Press reported.

Rowdy bar. Alcohol involved. College aged Americans in a rowdy bar drinking alcohol. Could have been anything. The deceased might have been mouthing off in a way that is acceptable in an Austin bar, but he wasn’t in Austin.

Judging from the pictures I found on the net, my guess is that he was probably hitting on a white woman, which doesn’t go over so well in other places.

No. Serbia is mostly eastern orthodox Christian. The former Yugoslavia was divided into 5 smaller countries along religious and ideological lines during the civil war in the 1990’s. Serbia being one of them.

Are Serbians muslim?

Most definitely not. Serbs spent most of the decade of the '90s fighting Muslims in Bosnia.

My first guess as well. Or perhaps a white boy. In either event, Serbia ain’t Austin.

Been to that island. For 2 yrs I was stationed on Lefkada (Looking at a map, it’s the medium sized island north of Zakinthos that almost touches the mainland).

Only about 3 percent of Serbians are Muslim. Most are Eastern Orthodox Christian.

“Are Serbians muslim?”

Congratulations.

The question takes the prize for the most ________ post I have seen on FR.

Serbia is Orthodox Christian. Their entire history consists of fighting muslim oppressors.

Soros engineered the Kosovo war to take Orthodox Christian Serbia’s Kosovo away from it and give it to muslim Albania.

As the Caucasian mother of a tall, good looking black adopted son, it has never failed to astound me how many times throughout my sons life that he has been attacked or abused because of his skin color.

At first I didn’t believe it, but I got a chance to watch it in action.

White men can be asses too.

Serbs are Christians.

What is their behavior in Ontario that gives them a bad reputation? Just curious.
