Thanks for the link on Johnny Hart.

He was ahead of the awakening of the muslim threat and how it stinks.

Another B.C. strip, which ran November 10, 2003, showed an outhouse with a traditional crescent, which a character entered with a vertical graphic "SLAM", only to ask, "Is it just me, or does it stink in here?" Critics including the Council on American-Islamic Relations claimed that the combination of the vertical bar and the "SLAM", as well as the crescent moons both in the sky and on the outhouse, made the strip a slur on Islam. Hart denied that it was anything but an outhouse joke.

Scott Adams seems to have the same ability to correctly analyze the current hate Trump regime.

Outhouses have traditionally had the crescent moon on the
door (especially in the South) going way back. - My dad
built our outhouses; but he didn’t do the crescent moon on
the door. - When he dug them, he sprinkled powdered lime
in the hole. They never smelled bad. - In the cartoon, the
“SLAM” is simply the outhouse door slamming. ISLAM sees
EVERYTHING as a “slur” on Islam, deserving beheading and
rioting. (Our neighbor up the road has an outhouse WITH a
traditional crescent moon on the door.)
