As a religious country it has people angry at things that shouldn't bother them.
A gay club should only annoy you if it plays the music too loud.
So, the Charlie Hebdo and the Paris shootings are what??? another day in France? France is not known for it's strong religious ties nor guns, and this very thing happened there twice... So then why do people who attacked those at a soccer game and cafe goers not seem to count as 'people angry at things that shouldn't bother them?'
They do, Drich, but the same thing has happened twice in America since I started typing this. You're comparing a barrel with a few bad apples to an orchard of blighted trees. There's no comparison. To use a parable, most of our peer countries have a speck in their eye on this issue, whereas we have a couple of two by fours and some discarded syringes.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
