NEW YORK (Reuters) - Authorities were investigating as a possible hate crime the discovery of uncooked bacon scattered on the grounds of a New York City park where Muslims gathered to celebrate the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, police said on Monday.

Festivities to mark the close of Ramadan, when Muslims fast from dawn to dusk, on Sunday had been publicized in local media and drew 1,500 participants to New Dorp Beach Park on Staten Island, said Cyrus McGoldrick, spokesman for the New York chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Organizers found uncooked bacon strewn about a small section of the park, New York City police said.

Religious restrictions prohibit Muslims from eating pork products.

"It's being investigated as a possible bias crime," a police spokeswoman said.

Hate crime?

Nah, I really suspect that it was just some weenie needing attention trying to ham it up a little.

What? You didn’t know it’s also probably a hate crime to drive past a mosque hauling pigs? Catch up man! /s

I drive a concrete mixer.

If I had to ever deliver concrete to a Moslem project at the very “least” I would dump several weeks of clean filtered bacon grease in my diesel fuel tank, oh and for youse folks who know little about diesels yes it will run nicely on clean bacon grease diluted.

Matter of fact I suggest anyone who does own a diesel to consider that idea. Just the grease, not congealed and no meat particles. And not during cold weather.

I know of a business locally a barbeque rib shack, the owner drivers a Ford PU and you can smell his truck coming a mile away, mouthwatering you might say.

be proud, be America, piss off a Moslem, sure the get upset and can be dangerous but so far we still outnumber them, let us keep it that way forever.

That is a tragic waste of bacon when chitlings would have served just as well.

Hell, a few bags of scattered pork rinds would do well too.

Seriously though. I could be walking through a public park innocently munching on a bag of barbecue pork rinds (delicious BTW), accidentally dropping a few now and again just like chips. Totally unaware that a pack of muzzies were soon going to show up and use the park for some reason, I could be charged for a "hate crime?" Really!!???

I have a two pound package of hickory smoked hate in the fridge as we speak.

Can the word be spoken?

Can such packages be sold in stores, or owned by returning vets?

Can one take such a package through the check-in at the airport? Can I even ask that question without being put on a watch list?

All they had to do was to send in some dogs and the bacon would have been cleaned up.

Oh wait, Muslims HATE dogs.

Hey you muslimes, America has had wild hogs running all over the country for the past 250 years. If you don't like pork, just leave and go back to your sand deserts.

“I suspect were they Jews, there’d be no such stink.”

It’s OK for a religious Jew to touch pig products (such as a football), just not to eat it. If I’m not mistaken, Muslims go a bit further and ban all contact with pigs.

Great pic! Love it! Love it! Love it!

The land were the despicable uncooked bacon was found was settled in Colonial time and throughout. One doesn’t have to stretch their imagination too far to think and to realize...

Swine, one of God’s given staples in most modern civilizations, has long been processed on our lands, all over our country. Pigs have been slaughtered, bled out and contaminated every inch of our United States soil and the ground water we use. Hell, wild boars run wild and take a big deuce anywhere they like.

So, I be the first! Welcome to America! Enjoy and while you visit. As for NYPD, get real..a hate crime? Try finding the 10 yr old walking home from the market, molested and snatched away from their parents prior to wasting our taxpayer funds on politically correct, pig snit case!

BTW: I know the “Cloven and Cud” rules. No need to bust my a$$! Rather, help the “O Joke” and his fellow muslim usupers to see the light!
