KANO, Nigeria (AFP) – Islamic police smashed 80,000 bottles of beer in the Nigerian city of Kano on Tuesday to enforce a sharia law ban on consumption of alcohol that exists in much of the country's north.

Over a dozen veiled female sharia police, called Hisbah, destroyed the beer bottles with sticks amid shouts of "Allahu Akbar" (God is Great) on the outskirts of the northern city in a ceremony.

The ceremony was attended by government officials as part of "efforts to rid the state of immorality," said Kano state Hisbah chief Saidu Dukawa. Kano city is the capital of the state by the same name.

"The sale and consumption of alcohol, like all forms of drugs and intoxicants, is illegal in Kano state, which practices sharia law and by this event we are enforcing that ban," Dukawa told AFP.

It is getting worse by the day, and if non-Islamic countries do not end their immigration, it is just a matter of time until they takeover. As they will never stop pushing.

In Heaven there is no beer
(No beer?!)
That’s why we drink it here
And when we’re all gone from here
Our friends will be drinking all the beer.

What about the malt in beer? Beer is water, malt, hops and yeast. It’s Satanic. Ask any Muslim or God fearing Baptist. I’m neither but I spill it on the ground after running it through my kidneys. It’s evil.

Effing retards.

Of course, we had enough folks in this country who were retarded enough to pass prohibition, with essentially the same result. And we’ve had one or two FReepers actually start threads calling for prohibition again.

Now, Islam is uniquely saturated with retards. But it doesn’t have a monopoly on it.

All I know is I saw plenty of completely sh*tfaced Saudis drinking in the bars in Bahrain while I was over there. They drive across the bridge (where apparently their all-powerful Allah can't see them) and get hammered in the Bahrain hotel nightclubs while cavorting with Russian prostitutes.

Good times!

Take one down,

Pass it on down,

Use it to beat the sh*t out of some woman who violated sharia law by being within 500 meeters of beer

The first thing all Saudi businessmen do when their plane lands in the US on a business trip, is to head straight for the nearest strip club.
