What part of 'curfew' don't they understand?

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

This is what happens when you bring a rock to a gunfight.

[Thane_Banquo]

Palestinian witnesses and medical workers say the teenager was shot when he and a group of boys defied the military curfew and threw stones at Israeli soldiers.

I swear. There must be something in the water. These people are morons. You throw rocks. They have guns. It doesn't take Dr. John Nash to figure out what happens next.

This is Allah's will...

Palestinian Teenager Shot After Defying Curfew

So what?

[VaBthang4]

"Palestinian witnesses and medical workers say the teenager was shot when he and a group of boys defied the military curfew and threw stones at Israeli soldiers."

Good.

[Lent]

defied the military curfew and threw stones at Israeli soldiers

Do the Pals have blocks for heads? I thinks it's self-evident.

[Your Nightmare]

I wonder how many people on Free Republic would take the oppression the Palestinians have suffered for 35 years. I have a feeling everyone here would be doing more than throwing rocks.

[American in Israel]

Palestinian witnesses and medical workers say the teenager was shot when he and a group of boys defied the military curfew and threw stones at Israeli soldiers. The incident occurred at a refugee camp near Nablus. Witnesses say they also heard gunfire from the center of the city.

You think if the Palestinians had not started shooting at the IDF the IDF might not have shot back hmmmm?

As for the "they own it cause they killed the owners and stole it 1400 years ago bit... Get real, you shoot my wife to take my grandpas watch and when I catch your a$$ you are gonna be dead, not the proud owner of a watch for 14 minutes. The Arab invaders do not have some strange right of conquest that does not apply to the Jews because they regained their land by a defensive conquest.

[Under the Radar]

I have to admit I am honestly confused here. Palestinian teenage boys act like too many teenage boys-- dumb, violent, and defiant. They throw rocks. They get shot by Israelis. Conservatives say that this is to be expected, since these boys come from a murderous culture.

Here in the US we also have dumb, violent, and defiant teenage boys. If they were shot by our government, would we say that this is what they get for throwing rocks? I don't understand the double standard. Would someone please explain this to me?
