    Religious cartoon causes outrage in the muslim world

    Oh, is that so? And exactly where in my post did I say it's OK? You can go and check statistics: Abused people are more likely to abuse their own children. I'm sure you are not denying that, are you? What I said is that's it's statistically to be expected. And if you want to close your eyes and say it's not so, it can't be so, it mustn't be so, then you are back on your high horse.

    People who have a long history of violence in every form are more likely to see violence as a fitting means for every little problem. It would be naive to deny that. You have to accept that, or you can't even do anything about it.

    I have never said in any of my posts that I didn't expect it. I always said that they should be held accountable. So explain again how saying people should be held accountable for their actions is me being on my 'high horse'?
    Edit: Oh, and trust me, I know statistics. Doesn't make it 'natural' as you put it, either. Expected? yes. natural? no.
