ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Shiite Muslims staging a religious procession near Pakistan’s capital Friday killed seven Sunnis from an Islamic seminary for insulting them as they passed, officials said.
...
The Shiites were observing Ashoura, which commemorates the 7th century death of the Prophet Muhammad’s grandson. The schism between Sunnis and Shiites dates back to that time.

The left likes to make fun of fundamentalist Christians. They even like to call Christians and Tea Party Folk the American “Taliban”. However, they never actually say anything bad about Muslims They consider this intolerant.
When was the last time you heard of Protestants beating 7 Catholics to death while on their way to mass?
Never, that’s when.

Those are some bold Shia.
Pakistan is ~87% Sunni and ~12% Shia.
And the majority are not squeamish about violence.

And the Sunni vs. Shi’ite war that started over 1,400+ years ago continues. It’s the Religion of Peace, folks. Nothing to see here, move on.

Yeah, I used to hate serving a mass on First Friday when the priest would do the same thing to a group of Lutherans we might happen upon.

If they aren’t killing each other over whether they are following the correct offspring of muhammed, they are killing each other over which way to properly wrap the towels around their heads.
You can’t get them to the 7th century until you get them out of the 6th century.
