American businesses have asked their employees not to bring in any little pig statues or calendars or things like that, regardless of their use. Also, a lot of banks have stopped offering piggy banks because of the fear of alienatinf Muslims customers. I have no problem with the latter, but the former example is ridiculous.

Do you have any links about the banks or is this just something you have heard/noticed?

As if getting rid of piggy banks would solve anything. Banks that charge interest are a violation of Sharia law.

What's next?

Banning the sale of pigs feet or any pork products in stores because if might 'offend' muslims?

Time to cut the crap and tell them either suck it up or go live somewhere else.

You have no hint of the problem here?,br>In some venues, saying, "I have no problem with... ", is the sign of submission, intended or not!
I've never used a lunchbox, but I would use that one!

I have problems with all of it and anything like it that may come along. I couldn't care less that Muslims are "offended". They can always return to their native country--the sooner the better. I trust none of them. None.
