[QUOTE]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.
The rally was organized on the city's landmark mall by the Tehreek Hurmat-i-Rasool. Despite a ban on rallies on The Mall, local officials blocked off the road leading to it from noon to 6 p.m., apparently to facilitate the event.
The film trailer that has spurred angry protests throughout the Middle East, "Innocence of Muslims," was produced by a California man. The trailer ridicules Islam and depicts the Prophet Muhammad as a fraud, a womanizer and a pedophile.
But protesters asserted it was created with the backing of the U.S. government.
“The U.S. must make a law against blasphemy – or we will not let the US consulates in Pakistan function,” a rally organizer told the paper.

Overdoses of freedom have been known to cause death. Consult your physician if you think you may have had too much freedom.

Unless you're a TRUE AMERICAN!
Also TOTY
Surprised this hasn't happened before given how much they love crowding around burning flags.
Flags are made out of polyester which is a plasic. Burning plastic releases toxic fumes into the air. Inhaling toxic fumes is bad for you. I'm surprised he died from it, however. He must've stood over every pile of burning flag and huffed the fumes or something.
what kind of dumb fuck dies like this
you would literally have to fight the natural urge to get away from the fumes.

The moment "define blasphemy" comes up, we're all on death row.

Could have died if he breathed in the heat/fire. Like any type of burn, if he inhaled it his throat would have swelled up and he could have suffocated if he didn't get a breathing tube put in.
And nothing of value was lost. Except an American flag, of course.
