I read something today.

There's some monument/statue thing being erected of a boar of sorts - I don't know why/the story behind it, but it just is.

Anyway, Muslims are claiming that they will vandalise the statue if it is built, and are protesting against its construction.

Why?
Because they don't eat pig meat, and are offended by it.

What the hell?
Now, like Foreman I don't want to sound racist, but come on.
That's just utterly stupid - it is after all our nation, and, though I respect Britain is becoming/is multinational, it works both ways.
If the statue is to be built for whatever reason, let it be built. I'm sure there are plenty of things that immigrants and other Muslims do that offend Britons.

Ah well, I dunno.

Your views?

Anyone that is offended by a statue of an animal to the point of wanting to destroy it, should perhaps go out and find something more constructive to focus their energy on.

Religion isn't really an issue, nor is race. It's just a bunch of cretins with little better to do, stirring up trouble in the bandwagon jumping way it seems is the norm these days.

There were islamic extremists burning union jacks in london last week, shouting slogans such as "Bin Laden is coming. Why were they not being arrested for trying to incite hatred? Why were they not beaten black and blue by rugby players carrying broom handles?
Because we're too damn lenient, that's why. If you did that in most european countries, the police would beat you til you were a bloody mess, that's before they give you many years in a cockroach infested prison.

If you want to burn flags and cause trouble in this way, get the hell out of our country. This is nothing to do with race or religion, this goes for everyone. Pretty much none of us are indigenous to this island anyway, so all these BNP nazi gimps should keep their damn mouths shut.

England is a diluted, washed up, confused mess, and a shell of its former glory. People care more about David Beckhams new Ferrari than they do about who will be the next Prime Minister.

Meh and double MEH.

Yeah, I had to word that carefully when writing about that.

They ARE British.

Muslim and British are not mutually exclusive terms.

Why are they building a statue of a pig?

Oh god, this sounds like the retards in Portsmouth who went after a paediatrician because they were too stupid to understand what her job title meant and somehow concluded she was a paedophile.

Christ the whole world's just turning into Texas!

If the animal is sacred, then what harm is a statue?

If people are vandalising it, they're showing their objection to an animal's image being preserved.

if the statue was built and muslims vandalised it, does that mean it's just as acceptable for non-muslims to go and grafitti over a mosque?

I'm offended by every statue ever erected (o-ho-ho) because I don't eat man flesh. It's insulting.
