Burning an American flag proved fatal for a Pakistani protester, who reportedly died from inhaling fumes from the ignited icon of independence.

Some 10,000 people rallied this week in Lahore, the capital of the Punjab province, to protest the movie trailer that Muslims say insults Islam, according to the International Herald-Tribune. One participant, identified as Abdullah Ismail, died after being taken to an area hospital. Witnesses said he had complained of feeling sick from the smoke from American flags burnt at the rally.

I never thought of treating the US flag with poison chemicals to reduce the number that are burned. I like it!

Great responses across the street -

'Karma meets irony and they both kicked this idiot in the nuts'

'Nominee for the Darwin award.'

'Send a whole lot more flags made of this stuff.'

Myself, I take a certain amount of satisfaction in seeing this kind of stuff.
