"We didn't want to take that risk. If changing a few words avoids offence then we will do so."

Western civilization's headstone: "....we didn't want to offend"

The Islams ain't going to Great Brittan looking for a better life. They are not going there for freedom. They are missionaries. Wise up, England!

dogs are considered unclean as well by Muslims.

Makes sense. Man's best friend. Muslims hate worldly friendships in particular, civilized society in general, and love death over life...

So, hate puppies!

People better start watching their kids schools and get involved. That's the only way to stop this kind of stuff.

I think singing about puppies is offensive, but only if done in SuperTarget while buying bacon.

The Brits better get a grip on themselves and start acting like free men instead of slaves.

All I can say is that anyone who permits their children to attend that public school doesn't care about his children, nor the future of his country.

A junior school production of the children's story has been renamed the Three Little Puppies for fear of offending Muslims.

Which is, ironically, exactly how Islam enforces its own edicts.

What do they want to do? What is their end? Elimination of the animal from the face of the earth?

Since when do sane people accommodate a death cult, anyway?

I'm getting the feeling that a lot of these PC cultural problems with Muslims aren't the doing of the Muslims, but of our very own ultra-leftists wanting so badly to appease them.

I'm reading on another thread about a muslim woman going full clothed into a sauna and then the pool.

I believe there is an actual plan for muslims to regularly test every aspect of western society and to make gains incrementally until their shria law is common place. If we look at the stories which have appeared hear for the last 4-6 years it will prove my point.

The worst part is that some of us and some governmental agancies and courts are complicitate in the plan.

Kind of like the frog boiling to death as the temperature is set gradually higher and higher.

When a rep from the "Muslim Council of Britain" thinks something like this is dumb...it's pretty damn dumb.

"Mohammed Imran, of the Hanfia Mosque and Educational Institute said: "According to the Koran it's forbidden to eat pork or touch a pig, but there's no ruling about talking about them or singing about them."

Rather than consult this man, the panel chose to consult those renowned religious scholars: The Muslim Cab Drivers Association of Greater Minneapolis.

But yesterday Islamic leaders condemned the politically correct move as misguided and said decisions like this were turning Muslims into 'misfits' in society.

Well, it's not like they needed any help in that area...
