Turkish Gunman Shoots 5 Judges, Killing 1

From the NY Times:

"A gunman stormed a court in Turkey's capital today, shooting five judges, in apparent anger at its ruling enforcing a strict ban on the wearing of headscarves."

Perfectly reasonable reaction. If someone said I couldn't wear argyle socks (the wearing of argyle socks is a fundamental tenet of Fishfrogism, my own hybrid of Buddhism and any politically expedient beliefs I may choose to adopt), I might do the same thing.
