’Horse bomb’ hits Colombia town
2003-09-11
A bomb strapped to a horse has exploded in a market in north-eastern Colombia, killing at least eight people, including a two-year-old child. Fifteen people were injured in the blast in the town of Chita, 240 kilometres north-east of the capital Bogota. Residents were crowded into the area in preparation for the town’s weekly market when the incident occurred, army spokesman Sergeant Luis Hernandez said. The Colombian authorities blame the country’s largest rebel group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), for the attack. The rebels have used bombs strapped to donkeys and horses in past attacks.
Just a reminder that not all assholes wear turbans.

#2  That's where your wrong Lawrence. This is all about PETA. They are now recruiting suicide bombers. I've heard that PETA has begun setting up Madrasses throughout the Midwest. They are disguised as "puppy farms."
