I don't know if I should mention this or not but, since mid-September 2001 or so, when the temperatures permit I wear a SUEDE PIGSKIN JACKET around town and have enjoyed frequenting moslem shopping areas. Especially large ones that have signs that say HALEL. These areas are easy to spot because moslem women typically walk around in their habbib and other customary clothing and the men wear their nightshirts and pajamas.
I have SEVERAL jackets like the one below in DIFFERENT COLORS. Some are two tone, a couple are solid color. The jackets are very comfortable, reasonably priced and wear well. Very often for some reason, a part of my jacket touches the skin of moslems. For example, the back of their hand may touch my sleeve. So, according to their sharia laws, they're goin' to hell because they did come in contact with pigskin.
One of my jackets looks like the one below.
Again, these jackets come in many colors and they are often available in solid colors as well. There are many places to order jackets like this.
One place online you can get them is here.
You can find other places online by doing a Yahoo search using SUEDE PIGSKIN JACKET. I have to wonder how the moslem community in North America would react to a LOT of people walking through moslem shopping areas and stores and letting these fine moslem folks enjoy a nice pigskin jacket. These jackets look nice on ladies as well as men.
I've heard some folks are getting annoyed with moslems. I overheard some young people talking. They were saying that perhaps later this summer, some annoyed young people may start placing fresh strips of bacon in the meat and produce areas of Halel Grocery Stores in moslem shopping areas around town. This would not be very nice, imo. If people started doing things like this, I have to wonder who would be the one who worries about "HUMILIATION".
After all, moslems can't re-write the haddith or the koran and they can't suddenly claim contact with swine and pigskin products doesn't count any more or that there is some sort of special excused circumstances. There's not.Their laws of Halel are very strict and very plainly worded.
Of course, I'm not advocating others do this.
