Egypt has sentenced almost 200 Muslim Brotherhood supporters to death, supposedly for killing a few thugs.

Egyptian trials are so wacky that this one gives us no reason to think those people did anything at all, or even that they supported the Muslim Brotherhood. Who knows?

But if they really did kill thugs, so what? The thugs were already shooting supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood, so why shouldn't they shoot back?

This has nothing to do with what the Muslim Brotherhood stands for (which, as an Atheist, I don't agree with at all).
