No Good Deed Goes Unpunished

In this case the punishment was death by lynching.

OpIndia reports:

How good deed of Christian man Nazir Masih led to his lynching by Islamists over ‘blasphemy’

In the Mujahid Colony in Sargodha city in Punjab, there had been, storm.  Nazir Masih was cleaning the aftermath in the street, sweeping up refuse. He then burned the pile of trash. Apparently, there were pages of the Quron in a box within the pile.   A Muslim neighbor accused the Christian of deliberately burning the religious text, in his mind blasphemy. A riot developed and a man was murdered. 

The victim's nephew quoted.

"My uncle was only trying to do a good deed by cleaning the street, but see what it did to him."

“I’ve been observing blasphemy cases since the 1980s, and in ninety per cent of the cases, personal jealousy is the driving force behind rumors of blasphemy against members of minority communities,”.

“Sometimes, something as simple as a Christian wearing a nice suit can be enough to incite them to plot our downfall,” he concluded. 

As we suffer the behavior of the political apparatchiks in the United States, comparisons Muslim fanaticism, while not as extreme are congruent.  I would judge the liberal Democratic actions of the last eight years to be a type of religious zeal.  Having formed an ascension with bearing like religious crusade allows the believers to justify any an action taken.  Essentially the ends justify the means.

Back on point, an old man cleaned the street about his home, and died for it.  Who thinks that the people that murdered this man have any remorse?  Not me.
