Luckiest Brit Kid Ever + Let's All Read the Koran

Since our world is built on song lyrics and movie references, I'll say this story is right out of "The Wizard of Oz."

Only instead of Dorothy of Kansas standing up to a very bad witch, and a menacing lion, and other mythical menaces...this is about little Elliott of England, standing up to an armed Somali murderer in a Nairobi shopping mall.

His words? "You're a bad man! Let us LEAVE!"

The kid's lucky they weren't finding pieces of him as far away as Libya, Hartford, Hereford and Hampshire.

A lot of kids died during the cowardly Somali siege over the past few days.

The bloodbath was intended to purge Christians from shopping in a mall and helping the local economy.

Who needs 'em, bringing trade and good will...the nerve!

These Christians are good-hearted decent people. They came to a nation most of us wouldn't visit for free as tourists, or for a six figure salary as a worker.

Fortunately not every recruit in that bloodbath had no mercy or decency.

There were several incidents where women and children were spared, and one, similar in theme to Elliott's story, in which a killer let a bleeding mother and her kids go if she promised to convert to Islam. She said, right, I'll be on it (soon as I stop bleeding!). She was escorted to safety and her kids handed chocolate bars.

Meanwhile, people all over the world are shivering at the thought of yet ANOTHER group of Muslim maniacs going nuts, the "Al shabab" sect ready to go sh-boom (there's your music reference). In addition to Arab maniacs blowing themselves up, now it's Somali maniacs? Yes, and there are plenty of 'em peppered all over the world. The unlikely state of Minnesota, good ol' USA, harbors some 100,000 Somalis. How they over-shot New York, New Jersey or Chicago I have no idea. The Somalis came to get somolions (a slang term for money they learned on the plane). Just why the USA needs 100,000 Somalis in Minnesota isn't quite clear, given the already high unemployment rate. But sure enough, what a surprise, not ALL of the Somalis have found work, not even at the Mall of America, and many joined al-shabab. Some even managed to get a flight from Minnesota to Kenya to participate in the mall murders.

What's the answer to crazed gunmen opening fire? "OW." Followed by dead silence in most cases. BUT...if there's a situation as with Elliott, where one comes face to feces-face, you've got to make the moment count. So, read The Koran! Take a break from "Shades of Grey" and "Harry Potter." Supposedly the radical Islam assholes think Mohammed is THE guy, and THE religion, and heathens should DIE. But if you read The Koran, you'll find passages urging tolerance, and peace, so find a passage you can copy off and keep with you. Keep it in your wallet. If the Koran words don't work, a bribe might.

Until you download your Koran, you might print out this little chunk from Wikipedia!

"Here, Lunatic...Mohammed knew all about Jesus, all about Moses...quoted them, considered them prophets...so how about live and let live, instead of (JAMES BOND STING) LIVE AND LET DIE!"

I know, we have so much to do besides having to read the fucking Koran, or deal with religious fanatics, but reality has impinged on our world of "Wizard of Oz" and James Bond movies and songs by The Crewcuts (or The Chords, both sang "Sh-Boom") and Paul McCartney, who learned a little something about African terrorism when he was recording "Band on the Run."
