Political Correct Gone Crazy.
Was going to post in open forum,but maybe a bit to much, with all the Danish cartoon problems and fuss in the media
at the moment. The more you look into this type of sh!t the more feking ridiculous it becomes. Last December Burger King were forced to withdraw some of its ice-cream cones because the lid offended a Muslim employee. Rashad Akhtar claimed that the design resembled the Arabic inscription for Allah. Burger King apologised, saying that the design was meant to represent a spinning ice-cream cone. He was not satisfied by the decision to withdraw the cones and he called on Moslems to boycott Burger King. He said: “This is my jihad. How can you say it is a spinning swirl? If you spin it one way to the right you are offending Muslims.” Not feking satisfied ??? What the fek else did he want? Burger King should have stuck the tw@t in their mincing machine. How can anyone hope to reason with these types? Mohammed is the most common name in this world today I'm surprised no-one has noticed that the name Mohammed contains the word "ham". Surely this is offensive to Muslims? http://www.bnp.org.uk/news_detail.php?newsId=526 The offending lid WTF ???????????????????? London Yesterday,I am trying very hard to try and understand these people. Reading the below the slogans it feking beats me why any of these people think that we might associate them with terrorism.

Peter, one of the Dutch leading 'intellectual' newspapers published the cartoons as well, full spread. It’s a matter of time the head office will go up in flames. I want to say more about this but refrain being this is a watch forum.
But political correctness has struck here too. In Amsterdam, the world capital of ‘happy smoking’, the City Council has begun designating ‘no blow’ areas, complete with signs and fines. The world as we know it has come to an end. The puritans have won

You're right Paddi, anymore the appropriate course of action, especially here in the States, is to greatly inconvenience the many, so as to, kiss the asses of the few. It's gotten completely out of hand
