It can be uncomfortable but it's a great chance for conversation. Just don't bring up bacon.

“Muslim” comes to mind.
Unreal.
Religion of Pieces member, no doubt.
For bonus points, compare and contrast with Jewish people who don’t try to control what others eat, just themselves.
Thus diverse community equates to Politically Correct community and ONE offended person deprives all others of any enjoyment of their own diversity. Taken to the logical end of "reducto ad absurdum" (Latin: "reduction to absurdity") nothing could be discussed as it would offend somebody somewhere! The fact is that minorities are always offended because by their very nature and definition of minority status they are separate from the majority.
However, since exercising victimhood is a power grab in this day and age, this will continue "ad absurdum!"
At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs.
From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves along with threats for failure to comply. At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world.
When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris, we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam , with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam.
After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues.
At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare.
From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels.
After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and in some ways is on-going in Bangladesh — Muslim 83%, Egypt — Muslim 90%, Gaza — Muslim 98.7%, Indonesia — Muslim 86.1%, Iran — Muslim 98%, Iraq — Muslim 97%, Jordan — Muslim 92%
100% will usher in the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ — the Islamic House of Peace. Here there’s supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in: Afghanistan — Muslim 100%, Saudi Arabia — Muslim 100%, Somalia — Muslim 100%, Yemen ---Muslim 100%.
Hey Biotch!
I’m offended by the vegan.
I like goats, pigs cows and anything really walking through my property.
I like em even better when I put my fork through its steamy flesh after I fire it on a barbecue. ..
what next? The Vishnu’s objecting to tasty beef?
FU! OH, and welcome to Murica....
love it or leave it...
...their goal was never to cause stress or bad feelings.Their goal to never cause stress or bad feelings is causing ME stress and bad feelings.
The Muslim lady's response offends me!
Forgive me, but the proper response to her complaint is "Tough $hit! This is a free country. You don't have to go to Sneakers. Nor eat bacon. Nor does anybody have to kow-tow to your particular preferences or dislikes."
But, this being Vermont, we get this: "The cool part of living in a diverse community is that it's not always comfortable. It's a fascinating place with lots of opportunities for conversation. The City has to pay attention to a lot of factors while acting within what we can regulate," said Katherine "Deac" Decarreau.
Does not "Deac" understand that Islam is anything but a "live and let live" culture that "honors diversity"? She is evidently willing to suppress her own culture of freedom in order to kow-tow to the equivalent of cultural tyranny.
Liberals are incapable of practicing good judgment.
Maybe she had too much time I between sandwich making...
Does this woman ever go into a diner or sandwich shop where BLT is prominently displayed, and the scent of bacon is in the air? How about a neighbor who has a backyard BBQ with ribs on the grill? Does she go to the meat section in her supermarket?
I’m sickened by those who bring these complaints, but even more so by those who succumb to them.
It’s Vermont. Home of Pat Leahy, Bernie Sanders and about 500,000 other nut job, left wing doucebags. Nothing that happens in VT should shock anyone.
Dear lady, I’m bacon you to forgive me.
I can think of numerous words that offend me: Islamic, Hamas, ISIS, ISIL, Islamic State, Mohammed, Moslem, Ayatollah, Sheik, Mullah, Mufti.
First of all, it seems Muslims are the only ones nobody is allowed to offend.
Second, why the hell is an Islamic Community Center needed in tiny Winooski with less than 8,000 population?
Last night on the news the Houston ISD announced they need 45 Arabic translators.
We’re in trouble, folks. I have to wonder if Islam is the anti christ and Obama was the great deceiver who ushered it in.
Will they all be removed?!?!?
> She said as a Muslim she is personally offended by it.
Good. Then it had the proper effect.
This woman needs to ‘disappeared.’
