Michelle has a post up detailing the horrific story of a young girl in Nigeria who was stoned to death by a lynch mob for “distributing inciting leaflets bordering on religion”.
The life of a 20yr old girl (name withheld) was prematurely terminated in Izom in Gawu Babangida Local Government Area of Niger State yesterday as she was stoned to death by irate youths for distributing inciting leaflets bordering on religion.
Trouble started at about noon when the girl whose identity is yet to be ascertained was said to have walked straight into the Jumat Mosque in Izom where she dropped the inciting letter in the Mosque.
As the letter was opened, it was discovered that it was a letter full of unprintable materials accusing both Prophet Muhammad, Jesus Christ and even some living and dead Pastors of some misdeeds.
The lady was immediately trailed and arrested by the people who also handed her over to the police.
While the lady was under protective police custody for interrogation, the news of the inciting letter had spread to the town while the youth immediately mobilized and stormed the Izom Police station where they demanded for the release of the girl for instant judgement.
And here, predictably, Michelle chimes in with:
“The youth.” Can you guess what religion they were?
She’s such a bigot. Yes, apparently, the youths who made up the lynch mob were Muslims. But what the hell does it matter? People who participate in lynchings are despicable whatever their religion.
Murderous thugs are murderous thugs. The Muslim religious fanatics who killed that poor Nigerian girl are no better or worse than the Christian religious fanatics who bomb abortion clinics or kill gays, or hang black men for dating white women. They’re called fanatics for a reason.
But rather than denouncing religious fanaticism in general, Michelle is fixed on the fact that it was Muslim religious fanatics who committed this horrible murder. It fits her narrative that followers of the Muslim faith are inferior to Christians– that Muslims are inherently evil and dangerous and should be regarded with suspicion, tortured, profiled, locked away in concentration camps. She seizes on every act of Muslim violence as “proof” that she’s been right about them all along. It’s how she justifies her belief that Muslim prisoners are undeserving of trials or even legal representation. It’s how she justifies her bigotry.
An emailer weighs in:
Malkin denounces “The bloodthirsty Muslim youth” that “stone(d) the Christian girl to death…” And yeah, obviously this was a horrible crime and should be denounced. But Malkin only thinks so because it was a Christian girl being killed by “bloodthirsty Muslims” (why does she even bother with this, doesn’t she just assume all Muslims are bloodthirsty?).
But where does she get that the girl is Christian? It’s never mentioned in either article she cites. In fact, what two of the articles mention is that her inflamatory tract denigrated the Prophet Mommamed and Jesus Christ. Accusing Christ of “misdeeds” strongly implies to me that she was not Christian.
So this brings up 2 questions. One, does she even bother reading these articles anymore before jumping to the most bigoted conclusion possible? I mean it was mentioned in two of the articles, in the parts that she posted herself! The second question is, if somebody was killed by a mob for denigrating “just” Jesus Christ, would Malkin still condemn it?
My guess is, she’d want to do a video tribute to the mob for killing the offending infidel. Or more realistically, the Malkins would simply ignore it, just like they’ve been ignoring the Haditha story and the soldier rape story, the McKinney acquittal, and everything else that doesn’t fit into their warped worldview.
Agreed.

[…] First from marymary of Michelle Malkin Is an Idiot! on the lynching story out of Nigeria and MM’s obsession with the lynchers’ religion. Murderous thugs are murderous thugs. The Muslim religious fanatics who killed that poor Nigerian girl are no better or worse than the Christian religious fanatics who bomb abortion clinics or kill gays, or hang black men for dating white women. They’re called fanatics for a reason. […]
First, when a Muslim does something bad it means all Muslims are bad. Just as when a black person does something bad, it means all black people are bad. And Mexicans. When a Mexican does something bad, it means all Mexicans are bad.
But when a white person does something bad, especially if it is a white Christian male, that just mean he had a good reason to do that thing.
You see now? Good!
When a 14 year old Muslim is gang raped by American soldiers she’s a ‘woman’.
When a 20 year old woman is attacked by Muslim youth, she’s a ‘girl’.
I’m going to do a couple of shots a lay down for awhile.
Hey Mary,
Last time I checked abortion clinic violence by Christian fanatics had killed a total of 7 people (and none since 2000). Whereas Islamic fanatics have already killed tens of thousands (3000 alone on 1 day 9/11) and continue to kill and practice violence on a daily basis. Also, I haven’t seen of any lynchings (much less by Christian fanatics) in the last 20 years. One could argue that the death of James Byrd was a lynching, but that was done by 3 White Supremacists NOT Christian fanatics. Any act of violence by anyone anywhere is deplorable. However, to try to morally equate the acts of a few fringe Christian fanatics against abortion clinics to the acts of thousands of Islamo-facists worldwide against America, Israel, Britain, etc is absolutely ridiculous.
Last time I checked, it wasn’t Christian fanatics who were flying planes into buildings, blowing up subway systems, blowing up our military vessels, beheading our soldiers, bombing our embassies, bombing tourist hotels, trying to blow up airports, killing school children, murdering tourists with car bombs, or beheading children on their way to a Christian school.
