Warm Fuzzy.

"...The Taleban said they carried out the attack on the grounds that Ms Williams was trying to convert people to Christianity. 'This woman came to Afghanistan to teach Christianity to the people of Afghanistan,' militant spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid said. 'Our (leaders] issued a decree to kill this woman.'..."

I find it kind of amusing that the Taliban has absolutely no problem accepting responsibility for the murders & then offering up a reason as to why they happened.

There is no slurring of american muslims, or muslims in general. Or would you deny that islamic fundamentalists/extremists do bad things in this world? Have we become PC to that extent?

This poster singles out the Muslim religion on a regular basis.

I'm simply providing a contrast, that all Muslims are not evil, and there are a lot of Muslims dying for our country right now.

Especially after the snarky "religion of peace" comments.

Maybe the lady just should have gone door to door in her own neighborhood.

The worst that would have happened is she gets the door shut in her face.

Better yet, maybe she should have just prayed in her Church and left other people alone.

I learned you put your hand on the stove, you get burned back in first grade.
