I’m reminded of Dennis Leary’s comment vis-a-vis the Judas Priest lawsuit over the kid that committed suicide after listening to one of their albums: “So let me get this straight; heavy-metal fans are listening to heavy-metal music and then blowing their heads off with shotguns. Where’s the problem?”
So some Muslims are destroying other Muslims’ shrines–where’s the problem?
