Minn. Islamic group wants investigation into fast-food toys (CAIR is outraged over Bible quote)
kstp.com ^ | December 19, 2008

The Minnesota chapter of the Council on America-Islamic Relations is calling for an investigation into a complaint made against the Long John Silver's restaurant in Mall of America.

CAIR-MN wants the restaurants parent company, Yum! Brands, to look into claims that religious literature was distributed with a children's meal.

According to CAIR-MN, a Muslim family visited the restaurant in November and ordered a children's meal for their three-year-old son. The toy that came with the meal was a notepad that featured a quote from the Bible. The family requested an alternative toy, but said only notepads with Bible versus were available.

CAIR-MN wants Yum! Brands to review their toy distribution policy.

Besides Long John Silver's, Yum! Brands owns KFC Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and A&W All-American Food.

Well, what to do about CAIR? See , we need to go after thm , just like we need to go after politicians. On eat a time in masses , at their offices , in the papers. We need lawyers, writers , speakers and activist who , on a daily basis , harass and hound these people , take them to court, educate the public about them . we need to look at the Marsist playbook and do to them what they just did to us. We need numbers and we need people willing to get off their asses, take chances and get out and fight before it’s too late. THE MINORITY IS RULING THE MAJORITY RIGHT NOW and we are just sitting here .

That's a good start, but I'd bring a herd of pigs near their offices and let them loose! I'd also set up of BBQ or smoker near their offices with pork ribs and hams acookin'!

I think these folks come to the U.S. with a chip the size of Hawaii on their shoulder, just waiting for someone to breathe incorrectly in their presence.

If they don’t like it here, they should get on down the road and quit stinkin’ up the place.

Here’s something else that occurs to me. CAIR used to be a Washington based organization. Now it seems to have offices in the oddest places. These folks sure know how to network as if they own the place.

I believe that Cair was in favor of Prop 8. Ergo, they expected to get by with this one.

Yum Brands has, recently, dropped “Pork Sausage” from the list of available topping on a Pizza Hut pizza.

Infidels are ignoring the long-established Constitutional tenet of “Separation of Church and French Fries.”

We DO own the place , why can’t we?
I’m SCREAMING this from the rooftops. Is there anyone on FR who can direct me to a group of patriots who are willing to fight aggressively to get our country back?

You beat me to it. This is a private business. They can do what they want. They are not bound by the so-called separation of church and state, not bound by any legal interpretations of the constitution in that area. On what basis can they file any complaints or take legal action against a private business???????

Minnesota is the testing ground for Islamofascist tactics against the U.s.

Nothing else can explain the explosion of complaints and lawsuits coming out of that state.

And then it might get Al Franken.

Complain about him you camel-**** jerks.

On its website (Yum.com) Yum! Brands notes that diversity is “their way of life” and that the company strives for “inclusion and engagement.”

CAIR-MN is asking Yum! Brands to:

1. Investigate the incident.

2. Offer the Muslim family a formal written apology.

3. Review the toy distribution policy for all restaurants and ensure that such incidents are not repeated.

4. Participate in CAIR’s sensitivity and diversity training.

The restaurant chain has not responded to a November 17 letter from the Islamic civil rights and advocacy group.

I think about this from time to time and ultimately it’s not the answer. Think of liberals ruining public schools, so normal people either home-school or private school.

How’s THAT worked out for us so far?

Not too good. Sure, OUR kids get a better education, but meanwhile WE still pay for failed godless liberal NEA run disasters, AND our kids pay dearly for the results and product from these socialization centers, all of society does.

Ultimately we have to take our WHOLE country back. Besides, they don’t deserve ANY of this country for their own. They’re the entire reason it’s crumbling!

If that’s not feasible, it’s simple really...lay siege to every major population center.

If you look at the red/blue maps, the blue shows up like a menacing disease...like splotches of cancer...in a vast sea oif healthy red, it’s the diseased high population centers...major cities. 90%+ of the land mass is firmly red/conservative. We fully surround them.

They could be choked off. Like Berlin circa 1949 only they’re too stupid to know what to do, and they still have to procure goods, food & fuel even if they did have the airports/planes.
