A Vermont diner decided to take down a sign advertising bacon after a Muslim declared that she had a beef with bacon. Sneakers Bistro had placed a sign on a lamp post that read, “Yield Sneakers Bacon.” The diner was allowed to erect the sign because of their participation in a beautification program in the town of Winooski. A woman who described herself as a “vegan and a member of a Muslim household” called the sign offensive, the Burlington Free Press reported. “Given the large number of Muslim families in Winooski, as well as many others who do not eat pork for a variety of reasons, it seems unnecessary for this insensitive business sign to be at the city’s main crosswalk,” she wrote on the Front Page Forum. The owners of the diner told television WPTZ they decided to proactively pull their pork ad and apologize. Local news outlets said the town manager commended the owners of the diner — using words like diversity and tolerance and dialogue. And boy howdy did folks dialogue. Lovers of pork chops and BLT’s fired off letters to the diner – taking them to task for giving in to the anti-pork police. The national outrage seemed to cause angst among the owners of the diner.

The owners are going to deserve Sharia Law.
There are sure a lot of fruits and nuts and granola-munchers around, but more than a mere handful of Muslims? In Vermont? I don’t think so.
Wimps. I’d have put up a sign stating every dish came with a slice of bacon.
Yet another in a long line of Muslims with a chip on their shoulder and an insistence that the entire world conform to their prejudices.
What is her legal status?
I’m offended that the ho lives in my country. She needs to go back to the sewer she crawled out of.
Owners pulled the ad and APOLOGIZED
Town manager COMMENDS them
I bet that’s the way it happened...
AHA! That's what this is about. Another "I won't eat teh cute animals and neither should you" type.
Boo on the diner, btw. Bacon is awesome. We should cherish and revere it in every way possible.
I hope his customers disagree with him.
If I ever go through Vermont again, I’ll go out of my way to avoid that screwed up diner!
Stand outside their window and eat a burger while flipping them the bird.
“If I ever go through Vermont again, I’ll go out of my way to avoid that screwed up diner!”
Walk into the diner with a large crowd, ask for the manager, then tell them exactly why you and your group are going to eat at the restaurant across the street
Islam offends me.
may they go bankrupt...
Says she’s also a vegan. She could be one of the libs that becomes an Islamic sympathizer because of Boosh’s evil wars, da jooz, etc.
