LAS VEGAS - The FBI is offering a $5,000 reward for information that helps them find the person who put raw bacon on the door handles of a Las Vegas mosque.
The FBI said in a statement Wednesday that agents are trying to find the man seen in a surveillance video putting the meat on the entrances of the Masjid-e-Tawheed mosque. Authorities call it a desecration of the Islamic worship center.
The Quran, the holy book of Islam, prohibits Muslims from eating pork, and pigs have been used to taunt or offend Muslims.
Both the FBI and Las Vegas police say they're investigating the case as a possible hate crime.

I call it hilarious!
We mustn't offend the precious muslims.
A prank is now a hate crime?!
Waste of bacon.
Fake?
That bacon did its job honorably. I bet its still good to eat though...mmmm bacon
$5,000?
How much are they offering for leads in the vandalized manger displays at Christian churches this past Christmas?
A $5k reward? In Vegas?
I’ve never seen a reward offered to catch those vandalizing a Catholic Church.
Exactly.
This is a crime?
Is it still a crime to do this to a Baptist church? If not, then why the double standard?
Unless the perp turns out to be a mooslim like the guy who torched that mosque in Houston.
Then it'll be, "Nothing to see here. Move along."
Did they ever even investigate when Sarah Palin’s church was burned down?????
Nah, it is not a a good idea to put actual bacon on the mosque door.
It is better to spray a fine mist of bacon grease all over their doors/walls etc...
then tell them about it in an anonymous note a few months later and watch them all freak out.
Of course satanists have done far worse to christian churches / statues and the libs barely bat an eyelash, especially those in government.
Fake?
Test the bacon, if it is turkey bacon it is a false flag by the peaceloving mooselimbs...
Indeed. Makes me think this is a "false flag". A non-Muslim would have kept the bacon and left them raw chitterlings.
that’s what I was thinking.
how much reward did they offer when churches were desecrated.
or when people interrupted services on purpose. if that’s not hate speech, I don’t know what is.
I find myself saying more and more, to my dismay, this is a very silly country, not to be taken seriously right now.
I’m with you. It’s a prank. Now made funnier by this ludicrousy. Btw, who is paying the $5K? Is that taxpayer money?
Apparently, Muslims are thin skinned, whiney wimps and sissies. They are offended and outraged by everything from cartoons to bacon.
Can they get finger prints off bacon?
And what kind of bacon?
Center Cut?
Cheep, fatty bacon?
Does it make any difference?
I’d offer the perp an invitation to join me for dinner at his favorite 5 Star German Hoffbrauhaus.
Good point! Vandalism? What was the valued of the loss the victim suffered at the hands of the vandals? Will the repairs cost $5K?
Pathetic. So when the next Pakistani jihadist shoots up a Christmas Party in some US city, you will know that the FBI wasn’t on top of it because they were using their resources to track down the guys who wrapped a door knob in bacon at a mosque.
