If Christians had opened fire on Muslims leaving a mosque, which they would, of course, never do, there would be insistent and ongoing international coverage. But no one will take any particular note of this. It’s just another day in Pakistan.

“At least 2 dead, 5 injured in attack on Christian community near church in Quetta,” by Syed Ali Shah, Dawn, April 15, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

At least two members of the Christian community were killed and five others injured in a firing incident near a church in Quetta, DawnNewsTV reported.

DIG Quetta Abdur Razzaq Cheema said the incident occurred when worshippers were leaving after attending the Sunday service at a church in Essa Nagri area of the provincial capital.

Unidentified attackers riding a motorbike opened fire on the members of the Christian community and managed to flee the scene soon after the incident, the DIG said.

The injured were rushed to Bolan Medical Complex, Quetta, where two injured worshippers succumbed to their, the hospital officials said.

Earlier this month, four members of a Christian family travelling in a rickshaw were killed in a firing incident on Quetta’s Shah Zaman road. The Christian family belonged to Punjab and had come to Quetta to see relatives….

We can't judge the actions of few against a whole race or group of people.

(Did I cover all the bases?)

Depends - Are they friends with the Saudis? Maybe Obama, McCain and Brennan can meet with these Jihadi "freedom fighters" and supply them weapons to effect regime change, so they can eliminate all the Christians.

Not quite.
1. You forgot to mention that the murderers were provoked (provoked by the mere existence of Christians).
2. You forgot to mention that the murderers were “lone wolves”.

We can’t judge the actions of few provoked lone wolves against a whole race or group of people.

MSMLSD: Nothing to see here, just ignore. Now, about that guy who hurled bacon at a mosque - hate crime, jail him.

And they did.

Pakistan is a cesspool: Pashto hate everyone. Baluch hate Pashto. Baluch hate Christians. Multan hates Karachi, Karachi hates Islamabad. Islamabad hates Peshawar. Kashmiris hate Indians. Deobandis hate Shiites. Civilian drug dealers hate military drug dealers. Etc., etc. There are so many no-go zones in Karachi one needs a map to know where one’s religion or ethnicity stands.

Of course, unless you are a conservative gun owner! Then you are considered a murderer.
