The pope's visit to Spain produced a lot of protests -- and at least one attempted act of terrorism. But it wasn't an attempted act of terrorism against Benedict XVI or against Catholics; no, it was a devout Catholic believer from Mexico who was planning on attacking protesters with deadly gas, including sarin.
A Mexican student was arrested in Madrid on Tuesday after posting his intention to attack anti-papal protestors with toxic gases, including sarin, on the internet. ...
A staunch Catholic, the man said that he could not allow protests against the pope. Benedict XVI is due to arrive in Madrid on Thursday ahead of a weekend of events to mark World Youth Day 2011. Hundreds of thousands of Catholic faithful have already descended on the capital.

This is on top of some horrible police brutality that I've seen in videos of how the protesters have been treated in some place. The police in Madrid don't seem to respect the rights of anyone -- except maybe their own "right" to bust the heads of whomever looks at them funny.
So it's secularists and atheists who are "militant" and "fundamentalist," but they are the ones targeted for terrorist attacks and police brutality. You don't see any atheists trying to launch poison gas attacks on Catholic events. You don't see atheist police bashing Catholic heads at World Youth Day.
How long do you think concern trolls will be able to keep up their act of labeling atheists as the "militant" ones while their fellow religious believers keep instigating violence against us?
