Muslims outraged at police advert

Quote:
A postcard featuring a cute puppy sitting in a policeman's hat advertising a Scottish police force's new telephone number has sparked outrage from Muslims.

Tayside Police's new non-emergency phone number has prompted complaints from members of the Islamic community.

The choice of image on the Tayside Police cards - a black dog sitting in a police officer's hat - has now been raised with Chief Constable John Vine.

The advert has upset Muslims because dogs are considered ritually unclean and has sparked such anger that some shopkeepers in Dundee have refused to display the advert.

Dundee councillor Mohammed Asif said: 'My concern was that it's not welcomed by all communities, with the dog on the cards.

'It was probably a waste of resources going to these communities.

'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.'
That last line line was a horrible response...

How about "Oh grow the hell up!"...

I think we should start a "Spay and neuter your dog, unless it's a big black Lab, then breed 'em like noboies business and turn 'em loose in Muslim neighborhoods." campaign. Then they'd have a legitimate complaint. If they're going to whine anyway, why not have a little fun watching full grown men having apopolectic fits over a big black lab licking little Ahmed's face. Either that or we could tell 'em to shut up and join the human race.

I could look it up now (but I'm busy), but I heard a story where a British commander had all of his troops' bullets dipped in pig's blood and got the word out to his Muslim foes...They fled like cockroaches with the light on...

It outrages Americans that they eat the same types of animals we keep as pets in China. But I don't see China apologizing. And I don't need their apology. Their culture is different in that regard.

OUR CULTURE doesn't see anything wrong with a cute little dog sitting on a hat in a commercial advertisement. And the west should not have to apologize for something these guys practiced or believed in "the old country".

The Catholic Irish immigrants used to have beliefs not in common with their Protestant neighbors. But they had to learn to live in their new country with its various customs and naunces.
Scotland Police are a bunch of wooses if you ask me.

Bingo!!!...

This is yet another example of "When in Rome, tell the Romans they're wrong and they should capitulate to YOUR beliefs and dismiss their own."...
