"It's not like Christians are finding the Blessed Virgin in every water stain on a highway underpass ... "


Some Christians are certainly as irrationally superstitious and easily, foolishly offended BUT no Christians have beheaded anyone or declared 'jihad' on a fast-food chain.

You are treading dangerously close to telling the truth about muslims. One more outburst of this kind and men in cheap suits with dark glasses will appear on your doorstep.

Put your ice cream cone where the moon don't shine.

Compare: One Muslim person complains he is offended and all the cones are withdrawn. Thousands of Christian people complain about the Shanksville Memorial and all we get is: "It's a coincidence, get over it."

"Liberals suck, but they don't threaten 'jihad' and behead those who disagree."

No, they just shoot them and put them in a park and make it look like a suicide.

Will Burger King go broke if it loses Muslim business?

I'm guessing whatever sales they lose would be more than offset (I'D start eating there) if the CEO said something along the lines of, "Spinning ice cream cones offend you? Well, beheadings of innocent people offend me, so take your business elsewhere...we don't care what you think OR eat!"

...and can't you just picture a brainstorming session at the BK marketing agency:

"Any ideas for the lid for the ice cream cone?"

"How about we f**k with the Muslims?"

"Genius!"

Well, sure. Since Islam itself makes as much sense as a spinning ice cream cone, I could see that the guy would be offended. If they redesign the lid to look like a pile of camel poop, he will be offended for the same reason.

Does no one care that I find table clothes sacred because on top of them I feed my family and these guys offend me by wrapping them around their heads ? Is there anyone I can sue ?

That BK mask, costume, whatever it is would scare the bejeezus out of me if I was minding my own business and it just popped up out of no where.

"I was greatly offended by this stone but I dont know who to sue"

Contact the ACLU. They'll find a way to sue the God they don't believe in for making the stone in the first place.

Muslims simply need to learn the world doesn't revolve around them.
