I assume you're talking about the rioting which occured after a newspaper there 
had the nerve to state that Muhammed the Prophet would have approved of 
the "Miss World Beauty Pageant". Over 50 people have been killed in Nigeria at 
last report over this newspaper.

These idiot westerners... They take their pageant to Nigeria, secure in the 
conceit that the rest of the world is more enlightened than the west, thinking 
the values they take for granted in their safe secure realm is universal. Well 
surprise surprise, the rest of the world is not like the west. Only politically-
correct idiots would think their pageant would get the same reception in 
Nigeria as it would in Milan, London, or New York. A reality check for dullards 
who moronically believe the freedoms they take for granted in their cushy lives 
are universally respected. 

And don't worry, it's not off-topic. They "grooed". (Although I'd assume Groo 
would have been less mindless in planning this.)
