More Dead, KFC Torched in Muhammed Cartoon Protests

More followers of the most peaceful and tolerant religion on earth killed in protests over blasphemous cartoons. Apparently they thought the rhyme went:

With sticks and stones we'll break your bones,
whenever your words do hurt me.

As for destroying a KFC and burning Colonel Sanders in effigy, one member of the mob claims they did it as a protest against a secret additive, put in Original Recipe by Jews, which makes you crave it fortnightly.

Pakistan:

Two people were killed Tuesday in anti-cartoons rallies in Pakistan's eastern Lahore city after which protestors turned violent and set fire to an American food outlet, commercial buildings and parts of regional legislature building, officials and witnesses said.

Several thousand demonstrators went on a rampage when a security guard stationed outside a metropolitan bank allegedly fired and killed two people when they charged towards the building.

Interior Minister Aftab Ahmed Khan Sherpao confirmed the fatalities but said no one has so far been arrested.

After the shooting incident, enraged protesters set fire to the American food outlet KFC and three commercial buildings and also burned a few rooms of the Punjab Assembly building.

If you don't eat at KFC today, the terrorists have already won.
