"Out where I live, we've banned all Muslims."

In many Celtic societies the Pig or more appropriately the wild Boar was a sacred animal. I think maybe the neo-pagans should demand their right to display their sacred symbols and eat their sacred meat. That would be funny.
I believe Winnie the Pooh was created by a Britishman.
Ah....you gave me a new tagline.
I just sent them an e-mail expressing my disgust with people who make an issue of every little thing that upsets them. This is more Political Correctness, sensitivity gone awry for a few Muslims who would destroy everyone’s tradition for their dislike of pork! One doesn’t eat a “Piglet”, that little fellow is history’s favorite little porker and friend of Pooh. Get a life Muslims!
Use the e-mail address above to condemn this stupid Politically Correct stance.
Muslims do not eat pigs because they are unclean....
A pig will not eat a muslim as they are too hard to clean!
Dude! Piglet's cool, but he is no, I repeat, NO Porky.
F--k Islam.
I saw a t-shirt that said that. If I weren't such a classy guy I'd wear it.

Don't the British have a Boar's Head Festival after the New Year? Just wait -- that will be the next target! If it were me, I'd leave my Piglet or whatever porcine ornament I had right where it is and dare them to come take it -- from my cold, dead hands!
LOL! If there were a mosque in my town, I'd buy a pet pig just to take it for a walk out front!
I'd start bringing pork rinds and Spam sandwiches for lunch.
Allah Akbar and Cheerio!
Would they ban muslims in the workplace?
Of course not you would be called a bigot, if you did this it would be your last day at work. Be careful and fight the PC multiculturists at night and on the web. They have managed this movement very well and may yet overtake the world.
What they will do when the Muslims come for them is anybodies guess, but they probably think with their "higher" intellect that Muslims will select them to be their leaders.
Would they ban muslims?No,but they wouldn't hesitate to fire you for religous insensitivity.If you were lucky(?)Human Resources would send you to "sensitivity" training.

I want the t-shirt that says, in Arabic, "There is no God by Yahweh, and Moses is His prophet!"
Oh, I think you are on to something great with this idea.
Winnie the Pooh and Piglet are a cherished cultural tradition in the West, particularly England. Through stories of Pooh and Piglet, the English speaking West passes on some of our values to the next generation. Pooh and Piglet are symbols on cribs and in nurseries.
What is happening here is that a minority imported culture is finding cherished aspects, values and symbols of the native majority culture offensive. The majority culture is responding by trying to eradicate the offending symbols, undermining the celebration and passing on of their own culture. There is something wrong with this picture - sort of a mass Western cultural suicide.
