Exit question: When did the left become more sensitive to Islamophobia than, er, Muslims?

Considering their over sensitivity has caused Native American mascots to be removed though we could care less about the use of Chiefs and Braves as mascots (personally I find it offensive that they seem bent on removing things that represent my heritage from the public square), and considering that they're more offended than the Wiccans are of witches at halloween celebrations I'd say that's a no brainer man. I don't even see how you could ask that question.

What they didn’t tell us was that to appease the Muslim religious sensibilities, “The Three Little Pigs” would be changed to “The Three Little Jews.”

But then wouldn’t they have to build their third house out of bricks made without straw?

I would suggest, no I demand, that Gill Goodswen cover her head in public, not be allowed to speak unless her muslim male escort gives her permission, be barred from going out in public inescorted by a family member or her husband not of her choosing.

That infidel B*tch should be more respectful to the culture of Muslims!

This reminds me of the south park episode where the school nurse had a dead fetus attached to her head, and in a show of sensitivity they focused on her uniqueness so much that she called them all a bunch of freaks.

I swear to God, if some Marxist tool ever tells me I can’t say “roast beef” in that ditty, I’m going to replace it with “roast Marxist kindergarten teacher” instead of pizza.

Or, if I was feeling exceptionally charitable, “Savory, juicy fresh roast beef!”

In the San Jose/Campbell, California area..I signed up for a class for my kid who was 1.5 yrs old..a gym kids class through parks and recreation. When counting piggy toes..like this little piggy went to the market, this little piggy stayed home, this little piggy had roast beef, this little piggy had none….we could not say the pig had roast beef..we were forced to say pizza. I have no doubt that they’ll change the piggy out too.

I also was in a mom’s group that I finally had to leave and a friend told me that they were planning their christmas party last year and they argued for a long time on if they were allowed to serve bacon because of offending muslims and vegetarians. They are lucky I had quit, I would have demanded bacon lol.

I wish I was joking about this, but I’m not.

“How far are we going to go?”

How far? Until you fall off the White Cliffs of Dover and into the English Channel! You’ve lost, it’s over, just convert now and get it over with.

First it was the Piglet sticker that had to be removed from the side of a computer because a muslim coworker was *offended*, then Burger King had to redesign their ice cream lids because the swirl looked like “Allah” when turned sideways and somebody was *offended*, and not THIS!

I can’t believe the people who survived the Blitz of London and shot Hitler’s Luftwaffe out of the sky could surrender so easily to a bunch of whining crybaby sissygirl muslims ’cause they don’t wanna “offend” anyone! You think THEY care about offending YOU when they blow up your trains and buses??? WAKE UP BRITIAN!!! YOU ARE DHIMMIS! YOU PAY THEM THE JIZYA TAX IN THE FORM OF WELFARE! Fight back! Make babies! Go to church! Defend yourselves and your way of life! You’re under yet another Blitz!

Isn’t a shoe a symbol of dissrespect. How about the old lady who lived in a shoe? And the “this little piggy went to market” with the toes? And what about the other thread on HA about having sex with another species may be good. PETA won’t have any more sex without their pigs.

What they didn’t tell us was that to appease the Muslim religious sensibilities, “The Three Little Pigs” would be changed to “The Three Little Jews.” The movie “King Kong” would be changed to “King Christian,” the Empire State Building is changed to the Kaaba, and the airplanes are flown by mullahs.

Why would any school be telling the story of the Three Little Pigs in the first place? Is that all they have to tell kids these days… fairy tales?

I guess my point is, the Muslins should have been sent to a cultural awareness class to teach them that the story was not written to offend Muslims and any offense they feel is their “stuff” and they need to deal with it. THEY need to adapt to OUR culture, not the other way round.

The whole notion of this really chaps my ass. We *always* have to modify *our* culture to accommodate other cultures yet other cultures *never* need to accept any of our customs, stories, traditions, etc. The unspoken idea here is that we are bad, our culture is bad, and we *always* need to change our culture in order to avoid offending and if we ever see something in another culture that we find offensive, it is wrong to be offended and need “cultural diversity sensativity training”.

It’s horse crap. All of it.

Ok, not to spam here or anything, but any Indonesian will tell you that black dogs taste the best.

So, at least some Muslims like ‘em plenty. Black ones. With hot sauce.

TexasDan on March 15, 2007 at 4:26 PM

TD, they’re not dogs, they’re pigs. They just can’t tell the difference.
And I agree, they do taste good with the hot sauce!

Here’s something not being widely reported (found it in a local paper):

Clr Lyons believes the people who made the decision may have been influenced by the controversy surrounding the sacking of teaching assistant Aishah Azmi in Dewsbury last year. He said: “There’s an element of fear evident since the veil dispute and I don’t think that’s healthy.”

A classic case of left meets Islamic extremism.
