A Small Taste of Karma?

A hotel in Mecca has collapsed, killing 15 people.

MECCA, Saudi Arabia - At least 15 pilgrims were killed Thursday and 39 injured when a building near the Grand Mosque collapsed around them just after they returned from midday prayers, the Interior Ministry said.

Early speculation of terrorism was immediately ruled out when authorities realized that Christians, Jews, Hindus, Taoists, Buddhists, Sikhists, Baha'i, Jainists, Shinto, Zoroastrians, and even Scientologists don't suicide-bomb innocent people.

(Oh come on, it's a joke. Honestly, I'm not happy these people died. I'm just making a politically incorrect joke at their expense. I sincerely apologize..... if you didn't get it.)
