74. I would argue
that you for some reason are having a hard time accepting that certain sects of Islam are inherently violent, putting infidels to death by the slow knife and all, and it is a religion that is dominant in many areas of the world where violent thugs have control. Put them together and you get an abnormally large cross-section that behaves in violent, fanatical ways, and view the world through lenses no rational person could ever understand. It's a sad situation that will not improve until education, infrastructure, agriculture, and commerce in those regions changes significantly. No Dutch cartoonist should have to die because of the situation though. Hopefully some friends and family of the young man who was shot can talk some sense into him and get him onto a more reasonable path.
