In the ensuing mêlée between the tribes of the two men, fifteen people were killed or injured.In other news, the German Central Bank has broken new fiscal ground by issuing bonds with a zero-percent coupon rate.

In case anyone doesn't know, Eric Stackelbeck has a podcast available for free on iTunes. I'm just downloading the video referred to above to my iPad now.
"A man in Yemen became angry when a neighbor’s donkey sexually assaulted his own."
is jealousy a sin under islam?
The donkey mishap and resultant fatalities show a primitive quarrelsome culture coexisting on earth with our own like lumbering cavemen. Why do we let libs import these barbarians with an 8th century belief system and silently let their "all cultures are equal" Newspeak BS stand so as to avoid being called racist by obvious idiots? Lib invented PC shackles need to be broken and their cockamamie ideas held up to richly deserved ridicule. Never have so many been governed by the so stupid without force.
