What religion's followers exaggerate their persecution the most?

Heres a funny story for you, I was at a crowded bus stop in New York and this guy was yelling real loud, preaching, apparently a Christian fundamentalist, and he started saying "You people don't know God:,, which made me angry, and I am only 5 ft 7 and 120 pounds, but I do construction work and yoga and I am strong,lol, so I went over and grabbed his shirt collar and lifted him off the ground and said "Don't ever tell me who I know an don't know"...I set him down and he yells out they told us we would be persecuted against! I wonder why!+
