No mention of the fact that Senegal is 94% Muslim and that stoning is a typical Muslim punishment, of course.

No mention of the fact that Senegal is 94% Muslim and that stoning is a typical Muslim punishment, of course.

Probably because:

1) This happened in Cape Verde, not Senegal (which is 500 miles away) and had nothing to do with Senegal other than it being used as geographic reference point

2) Cape Verde is Catholic and Protestant, not Muslim

3) The writer is likely not an ignorant knee-jerker. Sometimes it is wise to actually read the story and get facts before spouting off.
