    People who kill in the name of Islam are not "true Muslims". That's what we're always told.

    But, their moderate family members always make sure to bury them according to traditional Islamic rituals.

    Hell, President Obama made sure Osama bin Laden received Islamic rights:

    Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik, who opened fire on a San Bernardino holiday party earlier this month, were buried Tuesday in a quiet, graveside funeral guarded by FBI agents.

    Many of those who attended mosque with the couple refused to attend, two mosque members said.

    U.S.-born Farook, 28, and his Pakistani-born wife Malik, 29, killed 14 people and injured 21, in what U.S. officials have called a terrorist attack. They died later that day in a gun battle with police.

    The funeral followed traditional Islamic rituals, said an attendee. At a Muslim cemetery hours away from San Bernardino, the bodies were cleansed according to Islamic rules, wrapped in white cloth and buried.

    What did you want to happen? Get some rope and drag them around the city behind a chariot?

    Did someone make the claim -- repeatedly -- that their crimes (civil or moral) made them not just poor/unworthy Catholics, but in fact non-Catholics, by the very nature of the actions they took?

    Why would you give someone who wasn't Muslim a Muslim funeral/burial.

    Even if it's your child, it would be disrespectful to them to bury them in the rites of a religion which they did not belong to.

    How many times before it's repeatedly?

    Everybody is a troll now!

    Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday he welcomed comments by U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump that he wanted deeper relations with Russia.

    "He is a very flamboyant man, very talented, no doubt about that... He is an absolute leader of the presidential race, as we see it today. He says that he wants to move to another level of relations, to a deeper level of relations with Russia. How can we not welcome that? Of course we welcome it," Putin told reporters.

    And I thought the latest season of House of Cards was far-fetched.
