Colonel is an honorary title

Pop quiz, cowboy. A Sunni terrorist blows up a Shia mosque. How do you respond? Burn down the nearest Kentucky Fried Chicken! Duh.

Come on, that was easy. Because nothing says let's protest terrorism better than destroying the Colonel's secret recipe which makes you crave some original recipe fortnightly.....

The Australian:

Six employees of a KFC restaurant were killed yesterday after the building was torched by a mob angry over a deadly suicide attack at a Shi'ite mosque in Karachi.

Four of the victims at the restaurant were burned to death, while the two others froze after taking refuge in a refrigeration unit.

The restaurant was targeted after three militants, a policeman and a worshipper were killed in a shootout and a suicide bombing during evening prayers at the Madinat-ul-Ilm mosque in Gulshan, a busy neighbourhood in Pakistan's violence-prone largest city.

Man, the Religion of Irony never ceases to amaze.

Hat tip: Bill Dauterieve, Shamalama, and Tim at Opinion Bug who have more.
