A 13-year-old boy is dead today because, yay religion. Mehmet is an idiot who still believes that sacrificing shit will somehow bring you good fortune. Unfortunately for him, Darwin has a dark sense of humor. Mehmet bought a goat for the Muslim holiday Eid al-Adha. It was meant to be an offering. What exactly is Eid al-Adha?
The Feast of the Sacrifice, celebrated by Muslims around the world, honors the willingness of Abraham to sacrifice his promised son, Ishmael, to God before a lamb is provided to sacrifice instead.
Looks like they inadvertently got the ‘sacrifice your son’ part right. Mehmet’s 13-yea-old son, Heval Yildirim, was standing on the street when his dad’s sacrificial goat plummeted to its death. The goat landed on the boy, killing him as well.
“I am devastated but what more can I say?” he said, according to the Mirror. “In fact, there is nothing at all to say. Even the prosecutor has said this incident could be the first of its kind around the world.”
In other words, he sets the bar for stupid until someone one ups him.
