While reading a recent edition of Small Arms Review, I noticed with pleasure that Engel Ballistic Research has a quarter-page display ad which advertises "Precision Subsonic and Match Ammunition, Military and Law Enforcement Sales/CL2 Mfg. ALL PROJECTILES LUBRICATED WITH 100% PURE PORK FAT."
I found a lot of humor in this.

Personally, I am offended by ANY USPS stamp that is not printed in English. I am also offended by voting ballots printed in any language other than English--as well as any government announcements for give-away programs, etc. etc.

There's a difference between Muslims and Islamists (or "Islamic Fascism"). To lump them all together is like confusing Catholics with the IRA.

It that stamp was a little bit larger, I could use it to wipe where the sun doesn't shine!
To: basil
Why is it it's okay to offend Americans, but offending anyone else is not acceptable. Something very wrong here...
When immagrants come to America, they should learn our history, language, and customs. Else, they should not come. It's up to them to learn OUR ways, not for us to learn and 'tolerate' theirs. IMHO...

I was lurking once and someone made a comment that it was time to start stuffing bacon grease in the hollow points. I've started saving my bacon grease...LOL!

Thanks for the clarification. I'll try to keep that in mind. I understand that not all Muslims are terrorists, but what I've been able to learn about this religion is a bit unsettling.

When I was at the post office at Christmas, that stamp was pictured along with the Christmas stamps. A guy almost bought them by mistake for Christmas cards, obviously thinking that the writing resembled a stylized Christmas tree or something. The clerk told him it was a Muslim stamp, and the guy picked one of the real Christmas stamps very quickly.

Agreed. So let's try war. It may hurt in the short term, but the world will be a much safer place after a few of these nations have been taken down.
First, Iraq.
Second, North Korea.
Our dance card will be open after this.

Calligraphy is not merely printing. You can create a composition out of letters to look like anything. The person who designed the Eid stamp created two falling towers surrounded by a shower of debris.

I think I will buy a bunch of them and use them to mail Christmas Cards to people in Saudi Arabia. (They are illegal there...should give them fits).
