KABUL, Afghanistan - Afghan protests against the burning of a Quran in Florida entered a third day with a demonstrations in the south and east Sunday, while the Taliban called on people to rise up, blaming government forces for any violence.
The desecration at a small U.S. church has outraged Muslims worldwide, and in Afghanistan many of the demonstrations have turned into deadly riots. Protests in the north and south in recent days have killed 20 people.
In southern Kandahar city on Sunday, hundreds took to the streets for the second day in a row, and hospital officials said 20 people were hurt in skirmishes between police and demonstrators. On Saturday, nine people were killed and 80 injured when a protest turned into a riot.
It would be sad, would I kill someone over it? no! Were you upset when muslims killed 12 Christians who were in church last week, where was your outrage? The Bible is the word of God, not God!
While 12 Christians were killed in another part of the world last week, 50 murders are committed each day in the United States. My outrage is over that.
so you can't be outraged by both, how liberal of you, excuse me, how socialist democrat of you...muslims killing people, its good, christians being murdered, its ok! gottcha..

But rather than deflect, why not address the fact that gas went up something like 300% under Bush?
Liberal!!!
Actually, I'm more of a neo-con. But you spit that out like it's a bad word. It's no different that calling someone a conservative. They are the right and left political movements in the U.S.
Guess what? That's the way it's supposed to be in the United States of America. The Founding Fathers never intended one political persuasion to be the model for this country. If you want to live in a one-party country, maybe you should move.
(Only I wish there were a few more political parties).
This was hardly a freedom of speech issue. The preacher wanted and expected to provoke the Muslims around the world and domestically. He is guilty of a crime of inciting to riot. He should be prosecuted. Should he be allowed to hide behind the freedom of speech defense? Let the courts decide.
The rioting Muslims also committed crimes. They should be prosecuted for their terrorist acts.
