At least two people were killed and 11 injured. Security forces fired into the air as they struggled to contain the unrest in the eastern city of Lahore, where protesters burned down four buildings housing a hotel, two banks, a KFC restaurant and the office of a Norwegian cell phone company, Telenor. I know, I know... But c'mon.. they burned down a KFC!!! A little funny.... no..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Just curious, because I sure haven't seen it in any of the articles, but why are they targeting American interests? I still haven't seen where a major American media outlet has shown the comics yet. Shouldn't they be burning down and attacking the French, Danish, German, Eygptian etc... interests???

Im with you SS2K, it doesnt make sense to me. Some Danish cartooners make offensive cartoons and next thing you know Pakistanis are burning effigies of George Bush and tearing up (sniff*sniff*tear*) KFC's. There has to be someone somewhere whispering in these peoples ears that America is behind this, because they are all kinds of fired up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Kickass Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Exactly. Not to hype up anything but to misdirect attention away from their f***ups. And its our allies who are doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
