Muslim Lawmaker Rages After Being Served Pork (Threatens Food Server with Knife!)

A Muslim lawmaker on Monday night raged at a catering crewmember of a Chinese restaurant for serving her food with pork.

Rep. Faysah Dumarpa of Lanao del Sur reportedly slapped the crewmember, Virginia Fernando Altamirano, and held a bread knife at her.

Altamirano, 36, has filed a complaint against Dumarpa with the Quezon City police.

“It is forbidden in Islam for a believer to eat pork or its derivatives. To do so is a grievous sin. An intentional consumption of such meat would hinder me from gaining entrance to paradise. Beyond dietary concerns, this is a matter of faith,” Dumarpa said in a letter to Ramon Sy, head of the Shangri-La Finest Chinese Cuisine, which caters for congressmen during sessions at the South Lounge in the House of Representatives.

Dumarpa said she “felt betrayed” and “grossly insulted” by being served food containing pork. “I assumed your [catering] crew purposely caused that by intentional concealment of the fact herein set forth. If it was not at all intentional, then there must have been gross negligence on their part.”

Dumarpa even demanded that Sy fire the crewmen, and that only halal foods be made available in the South Lounge.

Another Muslim legislator, Anak Mindanao party-list Rep. Mujiv Hataman, said the House leadership should take responsibility for the gaffe.

“This indicates lack of religious and cultural sensitivity even within the House of Representatives itself,” Hataman said in a text message.

To prevent a repetition of the incident, Hataman suggested that the House consider putting up a separate lounge for Muslim legislators and visitors of Congress.

I've wondered if anyone had considered producing nonlethal bombs that would disperse an aerosol containing pork molecules. What could be a worse existence for them then a life knowing they wouldn't have a paradise to look forward to? Muslims may even fear such a bomb more than a nuclear weapon. They could avoid live hogs, but they can't avoid breathing! ;)

[“It is forbidden in Islam for a believer to eat pork or its derivatives. ]

What does Satan have against PORK?...
Islam is in direct opposition to God..

[LadyDoc]

half the food served by Chinese restaurants have pork in it.

He doesn't like it? Try bringing his own.

[dforest]

PORK is good! I agree! The new Beef!

[joylyn]

Your insult to lutefisk is grossly insensitive! It is FORBIDDEN to speak this way about the sacred dish of my culture. The radical Lutheran brigade will be sending you a post card expressing our sincere concerns.

[Dead Dog]

being a rude old bat will also.

But it's not hypocracy in their eyes. If all Muslims are human, and all non-Muslim are sub-human dhimmi slime (even the dhimmi's who choose to lick Muslim boots, like the boot-licking Dhimmicrat Party of the USA), then there's absolutely nothing hypocritical about knifing a waitress --- while calling her a sinner for getting your order wrong. Nothing hypocritical at all.

Stark raving insane. Yes. Deeply and inherently evil. Yes.

But not hypocritical.

This should be an immigration requirement of allah the slimes. Even the ones already here. Daily pork injestion, or no passport! It should also be used for public transportation. Eat a piece of bacon or do not get on board.

See it's really easy to end terrorism!

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

It is time to put a stop to this insanity, especially here in the U.S. I have some tremendous ideas to effect an end to this kind of behavior.

[PeteB570]

Hey now, easy there.

It's a Christmas tradition around here.

If you can get enough butter dripping off it, it ain't all that bad.

If you do not like the way we live in this country then get TFO!!!!! And please depart as soon as the next plane leaves your local airport.
In the mean time, STFU!!!!!!!!
I will give the rags just as many rights and considerations and a Christian gets in the arab world.
Lets impose a little equality on the bloodthirsty bastards. You put Christians in jail for having their bibles in your world. OK, we need to ship every butthead we find with a koran to our little cuban retreat. Arabs have had a long time since 9/11 to make peace but it has not happened so we can all rest assured that the peace part of that BS line has never been true and will never be true. Declare this a Christian country and impose their form of equality. Maybe we should have a little pork party to celebrate all new immigrants to this country. They have to willingly partake of the ham and bacon to get in the door. Make all food stamps good for pork products only. If you do not like who we are and what we believe then get the hell out! You will not be missed.

[PeterFinn]

I like your logic.

[Tulsa Ramjet]

“It is forbidden in Islam for a believer to eat pork or its derivatives." Then she should have quit licking her fingers after eating then.

"So humans taste like pig? I thought they taste like chicken."

humans taste like pig... people from france taste like chicken... (so I've heard)

[Redcitizen]

But it tastes like chicken...

[RightWhale]

Sheesh. Pork in the rice would be kind of obvious. Say no thanks do you have anything halal. What is this ululating about everything going to do except cast the deteriorating opinions of these tripwire personalities in concrete?

[Redcitizen]

Diced Spam Cluster Bombs?

[buwaya]

Lots of luck doing that in Manila. Pork is a Filipino staple.

[6SJ7]

Separate lounge? How about a separate country?

How about their own planet. I hear Mercury is nice this time of year.
