So, the Muslim investors championing the construction of the new mosque near Ground Zero claim it's all about strengthening the relationship between the Muslim and non-Muslim world.
As an American, I believe they have every right to build the mosque - after all, if they buy the land and they follow the law - who can stop them?
Which is, why, in the spirit of outreach, I've decided to do the same thing.
I'm announcing tonight, that I am planning to build and open the first gay bar that caters not only to the west, but also Islamic gay men. To best express my sincere desire for dialogue, the bar will be situated next to the mosque Park51, in an available commercial space.
This is not a joke. I've already spoken to a number of investors, who have pledged their support in this bipartisan bid for understanding and tolerance.
As you know, the Muslim faith doesn't look kindly upon homosexuality, which is why I'm building this bar. It is an effort to break down barriers and reduce deadly homophobia in the Islamic world.
The goal, however, is not simply to open a typical gay bar, but one friendly to men of Islamic faith. An entire floor, for example, will feature non-alcoholic drinks, since booze is forbidden by the faith. The bar will be open all day and night, to accommodate men who would rather keep their sexuality under wraps - but still want to dance.
Bottom line: I hope that the mosque owners will be as open to the bar, as I am to the new mosque. After all, the belief driving them to open up their center near Ground Zero, is no different than mine.
My place, however, will have better music.

OK, #6 might be a stretch here on FR (as being a GOOD tactic). But you have to admit #4 and #5 definitely apply . . .
On the other side of the mosque: “Snazzy Pig BBQ & Ribs” with a huge, fat, pink flashing neon pig on the sign.
Good lord, I hope that this is true. If I might make a suggestion, roast pig would make an excellent menu item, for the non-Muslim part of the gay bar, of course. Huge fans could send the aroma wafting ever so gently toward the vicinity of our Muslim brothers.
I’ve already sent an e-mail to Greg pledging four figures, maybe five, to invest in this.
I think it will be a GOLDMINE.
And a smokestack to pump that wonderful smokey smell in the direction of the mosque. During worship services, they can have someone handing out free samples up and down the sidewalk.
This’ll be the first gay bar the NY city council blocks, to the thunderous applause of the left.
Just a stand outside of this place called “Porkys”....with pork sandwiches would be sufficient. I think the neighborhood will all go this direction. I’ll even suggest a Jewish study center within 300 feet of the place within two years.
Call it “Mohammed’s”, and feature his likeness as the very prominent logo.
He should serve pork sausages also and have a picture of a pig on the sign outside and call it “Sausages”
No, no, no! Not in NYC.
There's a city ordinance that prohibits any aroma from emanating from any place of business. Bakeries have to filter their exhaust so that the smell of fresh-baked bread never sullies the nostrils of sensitive New Yorkers. The same goes for barbecue joints -- who have to spend as much as $50-100,000 for special filters and exhausts that issue no hint of the fragrant smoke and slowly barbecuing morsels.
It's "a New York thing"...
I suggested:
the Black Cube.
Or The Meteorite.
Or The Pink Crescent.
But Islam presents a veritable buffet of possible gay bar names . . . Not That There’s Anything Wrong With That.
No no no. You call your character "Moo-Ham-Head", and have him chowing down on some baby back ribs. Hey, if you can't stop something just because it's offensive, then you can't stop something just because it's offensive.
OMG!
ROFL!!!!
You don’t know Gutfeld, he’s a tightwad.
No roast pig.
Only pork rinds
Why not a suite of dog rescue societies as well? Muslims need to understand that not all cultures view dogs as inherently filthy beasts.
Puppies!
I love puppies!
LOL!
