Here (central TX) they are numerous and seem innocuous. |

My wife is very energetic on holiday. I got to thinking about it. There were some Muslims at Heathrow. Nothing unusual. We were stacked up BAD in customs. The way you guys talk about it I thought it was going to be much different, Seemed like a non-issue. We traveled up to Vancouver Canada a few summers ago and I did notice a strong Muslim presence there. But again, innocuous. We should be back in England in a few years. I'll look for those pesky buggers again. BTW: Wonderful trip. Londoners were quite pleasant. |

In article , Tegger
wrote: But then Britain and Sweden are basically run by Muslims these days. Ever heard of Rashad Akhtar, of High Wycombe? (That's in England.) He complained that the swirls shown on the lid of Burger King's ice-cream cones resembled the script for the word "Allah" in Arabic. Burger King changed the lid to appease the Muslims. Allah Akbar, mate. but are milkshakes even allowed to muslims? |

I though the head on that cake was lifelike-- but that's crazy. Jim [kind of siding with the artist-- but I'm glad it was some other country's politician cutting that one up] |

Jim [kind of siding with the artist-- but I'm glad it was some other country's politician cutting that one up] I used to decorate cakes and my wife is working on a elaborate 3 tiered cake for our niece who is getting married on Saturday. I thought the black cake was very well done and it's a shame it was in such poor taste. I can't imagine the fondant would be edible with all that dye. Fondant tastes like poop to me anyway. |

To anyone who offers me violence, I intend to offer such a surfeit of violence that they will be sated for the rest of their short lives."- |

Violence against *anyone* I find repulsive.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Well I would say it was tasteless right enough but it certainly highlightedt he issue. Genital mutilation has become an issue in Europe when the scope ofthe practice was discovered. Thousands of school girls being taken to Africa To be cut up by back street butchers. So it's racistin the sense that it's the black scum parents doing this to them. The PC over here don't like stuff like this highlighted as it brings home how scummy North African society really is and that the "racists" are correct. |

When Christians complain that's it is shocking, appalling, insulting and extremely distasteful, they're called intolerant and bigoted against any artistic expression. After all, it's art of the highest order. o_O TDD |
