I'm not sure what to make of this..

Did I read this right?

Muslims are offended because a puppy is on a public post card and that dogs are unclean. They don't want to look at it.

I would think that this is not applicable to all Muslims.

First of all, if the Muslims don't like it, they can go back to the middle east. As the saying goes "When in rome.... act like romans do." Thats why we have cultures and different countries. Globalism FTL.

Second, if they don't like it, too bad.

i'm thinking someone needs to find that guy's email address and start sending him cute puppy pictures

Minneapolis had an issue with cab drivers refusing to carry blind people because the muslims feel dogs are dirty animals.

Muslims also threatened a teachers aid and his dog at a local public school.

Dont these people have better things to do?

 

[OrByte]

would I be correct in saying that muslims look at dogs the same way us Americans look at sewer rats?

I'm trying to be understanding...

You have extremists that want their host culture to adapt to them vs the other way around.

Nibble away at the edges until you have a good handhold, then you can destroy from within.

Muslims are usually not from the M.E
Not even close.

Yeah and some Christians don't like Tinky-Winky. The lesson here? Some people are idiots.

That's a ridiculously cute dog. Anyone who thinks otherwise is an idiot. I'm tolerant of people's religious beliefs (tolerant, not accepting; key difference), but come on, to be offended by a puppy? Grow the fuck up.

'They (the police) should have understood. Since then, the police have explained that it was an oversight on their part, and that if they'd seen it was going to cause upset they wouldn't have done it.'

'We did not seek advice from the force's diversity adviser prior to publishing and distributing the postcards. That was an oversight and we apologise for any offence caused.'

And the apologies begin. I am so sick of this crap.

I'm wondering if there was a card distributed with an upside down pentagram within a circle and Christians were outraged if you would be so quick to tell them "too bad" and "When in Rome...act like romans do"?

Or maybe you would share these sentiments and tell the Christians to "go back and die on their soil".

in rome I don't think they'd distribute pentagrams.

I could see the muslims getting pissed if this happened in a muslim ruled country, but it is not.

We are not a Christian ruled country.

This isn't happening "here"

There is a major difference between the immigrants the U.S takes in than what Europe takes in.

U.S has requirements. Education & Money are on the top.

Europe takes in anyone who can fill in their jobs. These jobs are usually minimum wage.

You know those little fish on the bumpster stickers with a cross in it. The Jesus symbol thingy.

We have someone at work here that has the fish in flames that says "Satan" in the middle of it.

Do I care? No... If they want to be an idiot, thats their choice. I just know who to stay away from.

And we are a Christian nation. 95% of the people here consider themselves Christian? So according to our culture, people should act like Christians do. (don't giggle, I realize most people here don't act like Christians...)

If cards with upside down pentagrams were common in the country I was in, then yes I would tell Christians "when in Rome".

Maybe I don't get it because I am simply not religious but puppies being offensive in the US????? Give me a break.
