Hey, Stage 2 is what a community organizer does, and Obama is now on Stage 4.

This sounds about right — Muzzies will be pointing their asses towards Mecca!

[jakerobins]

Dang I’ve never seen so many rules!! I guess I shouldn’t have written the word ALLAH(pedophile prophet) on all my toilet paper then?

[Rebelbase]

New rule. Whenever I’m outdoors and gotta go, it will be in the direction of Mecca!

[Lawgvr1955]

Maybe if the ROP recognized that the Earth was round, they would understand that they aren't facing Mecca, even when they are "looing" due east.

Their gaze and their "dropping the kids off at the pool" are facing some place well above the horizon of the sacred site.

Geez Louise. Now I’ve heard everything.

This is pretty stupid from all sides ...

1) they are portable toilets, what’s the big deal in re-aiming them if someone is willing to pay for it ?

2) Given the distance from London to Mecca the odds are exceedingly small that whatever site line you chose for your privates would be on target.
scootch over a bit

When we build our next house...

Will it be an all-male Olympics then?
Just how can a female swimmer, gymnast, runner, etc compete while wearing a burqa?
And if I’m not mistaken, the London Olympics will be the first to be held in a Muslim country.

My downstairs toilet faces Mecca. I think I’ll go take Jihadist in it right now!

[Huntress]

How about covering the toilet seats with pigskin?

[headstamp 2]

So instead of facing in Mecca’s direction they will crap in it’s direction.

Sounds reasonable.

Maybe they will set kinda sideways with a narrow stance.

[Lazarus Starr]

The United Kingdom is dead and gone. Now they’re the Islamic Fundamentalist Republic of Britain. London will become New Tehran soon.

good thing i had finished swallowing my water before i read your post, lol

[machogirl]

good point, the earth isn’t flat, eventually all directions lead to mecca

[machogirl]

go around fast enough, you could have a heck of a ride at the same time takin’ care of business

Come on guys, we are just silly, pathetic infidels...we are of no importance to the great Muslim faith. We must pay our jizya and have second class status; that is...if they don't kill us first. Maybe the U.S. will cower to their demands like France?
