A Catholic priest serving in Turkey was shot and killed on Sunday; authorities are searching for a 14 or 15 year old boy who was seen leaving the scene shouting "Allah Akbar" which means "God is great". Authorities won't say if this incident is related to the cartoon controversy...

Well, shit, Abdullah. Guess we can't have that, now can we?
Yeah, I know, that was a little snarky. I guess dead Catholic priests and soldiers getting fired upon while helping children just rubs me the wrong way...
