activists burning the Australian flag

Do flag dealers have comprehensive retail outlets in your flag-burning type of countries, or are the locals hand-stitching them from household fabric remnants, a la Betsy Ross? And who has the time?

I could probably pick the Australian flag out of a small multiple-choice selection, assuming it has some British elements, but I couldn't just run one up on the Singer machine in time to protest Outrage X from Australia before Outrage Y from Finland occurs.

To be fair, we need a Mohammed bikini. That would be the bomb....

no, they are insulting a religious image.

The real scandal is that we Christians put up with our feces decorated or bikini clad madonnas and crucifixes in urine.

Hindu goddess of wealth, prosperity and fertility; embodiment of beauty, grace and charm.

And it's a nice, modest one-piece. Apart from the paganism, I like it.

Compare to this statue:
