Its common knowledge. How reassuring it is to know he can be an example for all of Islam, who of course are busting to do a massacre or two, and aren't like him, who's a damn decent person, who in a terrible situation put his like n the line.

Tell me, do you talk the same way when atrocities are carried out by Christians or Jews? Or is it just Muslims?
