My piggy bank after filling my gas tank.

It's one thing for them to avoid the prohibited food products but it's quite another when they tell us not to eat them, too.
I love Piglet. Piglet has sat atop my monitor for over 6 years now, keeping me 'company'.
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.
BTTT!!!
Excellent - well said. When will the Brits learn? When will all of us learn?
Now there you've got one!
The rule was because the IslammoNazis didn't wnat to SMELL the pork cooking in the microwaves and were afraid they would be contaminated.........But it also included BACON in BLT sandwiches that was already cooked......
I want the t-shirt that says, in Arabic, "There is no God but Yahweh, and JESUS is His SON!"
I wonder what would have been done during WWII if, in the U.S. or Britain, a worker of German descent who had Nazi sympathies had proclaimed himself offended if swastikas weren't prominently displayed all over his workplace. This is in substance no different than what is happening here. The West is forcing its citizens to stifle free expression, and even expressions of personal identity, that might offend elements of the enemy. And any Muslim that doesn't condemn what the enemy is doing is, by definition, an enemy sympathizer, and should be treated accordingly.
"...F--k Islam...."
Da*ned right. I'm sick of them dictating policy. If I worked there, I'd continue to do the things I've always done prior to this decree. BTW, I got into a flame war with a couple of posters that called me a biggot and a racist over my tagline. They were biblewonk and jude24. I looked up wonks profile and saw that he has been banned. Don't know about jued24. Anyone else have any run-ins with them? I'm surprised they don't show up here on this thread and try to lay waste to all posters here.
Would that make it "pigs in a blanket"?
I didn't realize Muslims ate toys or were forbidden from looking at a pig.
What a whacked out cult. What a bunch of wussies some Brits have become.
But it also included BACON in BLT sandwiches that was already cooked......
See? That's where they lose me. So separate lunch rooms so we can microwave our bacon till our hearts content? What's next? No Egg McMuffins?
And then there's Piglet. My little stuffed Piglet and my Piglet T-shirt have no odors or aromas (unless I it's me!...). But they are offensive also? I've been to Disney a couple times and there's always Muslim families choosing to visit identifiable by their use of the hijab and often full gowns - will Disney be forced to remove the Piglets from everything? That would be absurd. I know one goes to a park by choice versus the workplace where one may not have a choice, but it's headed that way. See marsh2's post #39.
Helter-skelter?
I want the t-shirt that has "the" picture of Che on it, with the words: "Viva la stupid, rich, white kids!"
Why should anybody care if what I choose to eat is "unclean"? I'm not forcing anybody else to eat it.
On the other hand, can I protest if somebody wants to eat something that I consider "sacred"?
Sarcasm so early in the day? Guess I'm just glad I still live in a relatively free country, I suspect Brits could not get away with it.
Truthfully, if our domestic ragheads start pulling this kr@p..I would absolutely do something (legal) to piss them off. I dont like muslimes, I never will like muslimes..they do not simply "worship differently" than Christians, they are satanic (anti-Christ).
No amount of PC laws can make me feel that they are not the enemy. Muslimes are the enemy of Christ and therefore, mine as well.
Exactly! Why indeed. You're only 'hurting' yourself, if there's harm at all. Then the idea that we have to guard the aromas of our foods to protect those who don't like it. One spritz of Oust and the smell of the bacon will be gone but the bacon essence will still be there. So then what? Ban bacon altogether? I agree, and it does get silly.
On the other hand, can I protest if somebody wants to eat something that I consider "sacred"?
Peta does this all the time. And they get air time because it's PC.
Just AMEN!
