Freepers once again demonstrate their kinship with Islamists.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1971849/posts

Following the suicide attack that killed 80 at an outdoor dogfighting competition in Kandahar, Afghanistan, the freepists demonstrate their common mindedness with the Taliban.

In this thread you can read comments on how they feel sorry for the dogs and that this crowd got what it deserved for such depravity.

What they apparently don't know is that dogfighting was illegal under the Taliban and that the act of bombing such an event now is in part an attack on the "free" society that emerged after them being driven out.

Obviously, the freepers think that the sharia laws of the Taliban were superior to the ones now that allow for gambling and so on.

1. meh, it's a messageboard
people say that kind of thing everywhere. I guess hoping for the sinking and systematic murder of Japanese whalers makes me a terrorist, too.

2. Most of those responses wouldn't look out of place on DU
Dog fighting has few friends here as well.
