Peaceful people slaughter at least 15

Well, I am officially through buying the "Islam is a religion of peace" garbage. I don't care who is selling it. Not George Bush, not Muslims in this country, not anyone. For one, the Muslim community as a whole has not stepped to the fore to denounce worldwide terrorism. In my book, sitting silently by makes them complicit. Now, we have this whole cartoon deal. What has this taught us about the followers of the religion of peace? Cross them and they will riot, burn and kill. In other words, they will be anything but peaceful. When are we going to wake up?

At least 15 die in Nigeria cartoon protest

"One group threw a tire around a man, poured gas on him and set him ablaze."

"'Most of the dead were Christians beaten to death on the streets by the rioters,' Ezeoke said. Witnesses said three children and a priest were among those killed."

"With Saturday's deaths, at least 45 people have been killed in protests across the Muslim world, according to a count by The Associated Press."

Peaceful? You be the judge.
