So, maybe some of the local ragheads might want to drop by and protest. Love to see that.
I’ll bring bacon and whiskey.
Let The Ramadan celebration begin.....
Plenty of pork for everybody!
Happy Ramadan!
I salute this event with bacon-grease coated fingers!
Catholics used to be barred from eating meat on Fridays. Yet my Protestant friends ate meat on Fridays. I guess I should have been offended. /s
Well, they call themselves the Infidels, what do you expect?
Derbyshire suggested it was Allah's way of telling Muslims they shouldn't be living that far north.
If I was there, I would attend.
Don’t you know, you can only make fun of Christians?
So now RIDICULE constitutes a civil right violation????
Wait until the Swedes get tired of all the crime and tell the Muslims they shouldn’t be living that far north.
A rights group that objects to someone exercising their rights under the Constitution has no business referring to itself as a rights group.
We ate at a Mexican place tonight. I ordered enchiladas. The waiter asked if I wanted beef, chicken or pork.
I said, “Well, since it’s ramadan I’ll have to have the pork!”
My daughter laughed.
I thought Ramadan is arabic for “eat more pork”.
Went to an Asian shopping center to eat tonight. Parking lot is usually a mess. Since it was still daylight, there was plenty of parking for the restaurants. Didn’t realize so many Muzzies must shop/eat there. And the local Buddist temple was packing folks in in shifts last night. Plies of shoes and sandals on the sidewalk outside.
In Svalbard, Norway, the northernmost inhabited region of Europe, there is no sunset from approximately April 19 to August 23.
Even as far south as Stockholm, sunset today was approx. 10:00 PM and sunrise tomorrow will be approx. 3:30 AM --- that's approx 18 1/2 daylight hours, and 5 1/2 nighttime hours.
This year Ramadan is approximately June 18 - July 17 (I say approx. because this is a lunar month and depends on the actual sighting of the moon.) So in swaths of northern Europe, you could go through the entire month of Ramadan with only 0 to 5 after-sunset hours (deep in the middle of the night) when you would be permitted to eat.
Which is to say, Happy Ramadan! --- if you're really, really into fasting.
Welfare trumps Ramadan.
The Moslems should invoke shariah and require that the sun shine for no more than 12 hours during Ramadan. Truly, though, it is a signal from Allah that Moslems should not be resident in these latitudes. To a Moslem there is no “cause and effect.” Everything is directly willed by Allah and this, too is Allah’s will and good moslems should avoid the place.
In a world of microaggressions, yes, definitely.
