Murder is never "justified" except in the minds of man.

Salmaan taseer murder is completely wronge and it is the attack of devel to suppress the belivers.This trick of devel will not succeed.

The religious murder was not justified, just another Pakistani Muslim ratbag blowing someone away he doesn't agree with under the guise of religion. If these fellows are so interested in upholding the rules laid down by God why don't they start with the primary rules, one of which is do not kill! I did not see any exceptions to this rule in Scripture when God gave the instruction. Only man has tried to change the rules for his own ends. God made some exceptions but he didn't say do this every time.

I would like to know if the OP thinks it was justified.

Is murder okay in the Muslim religion? If it is, than you really have to start questioning your beliefs.

Every human being has a right to life. No man has the authority to take life away.
