... which is considered offensive in Islamic culture.

Journalists abet jihad when they make claims like this. The truth is that some people claim that it is offensive in Islamic culture. They also often claim that "most" Muslims are "moderate" without defining moderation. The unaddressed implication is that a Muslim can be moderate and yet still be "offended" by an Italian wearing a shirt with a cross on it. I think it is one or the other and that journalists should not be claiming both things to be true at once.

"There was a Pakistani woman from England on WRKO about two years ago saying that there is a movement in England to dump the Union Jack because of its colonial past."

I wonder if that Pakistani woman realizes that Englands "colonial past" is probably the reason she no longer has to live in that third world cesspool.

I don't know what infuriates me more; The way the human locusts presently swarming into the West demand that we accommodate their squalid cultures, or the way we grovel and kiss their backsides.
