Muslim Complains About Bacon Sign; Restaurant Removes Citing Safety Concerns
Breitbart reports that Sneakers Bistro, a restaurant located in Winooski, Vermont, placed an advertising sign in an area where local businesses were allowed to advertise in exchange for helping to maintain city flowerbeds. As a restaurant known for its breakfast, they posted a sign that pictured bacon along with the saying “Sneakers Yields Bacon.”

A woman, who identified herself as Muslim, posted in a community forum that she was personally offended by the sign. The unidentified woman said the sign was “insensitive to those who do not consume pork.”

After it was brought to their attention, the owners of Sneakers Bistro removed the sign and posted the following message on their Facebook page.

I don't eat Halal meat and find things like this personally offensive...

Quote:The cool part of living in a diverse community is that it’s not always comfortable. It’s a fascinating place with lots of opportunities for conversation.

Ok, but the muzzie couldn't handle the discomfort, and the ***** restaurant owner specifically said he didn't want the conversation.

So what was this leftist's point exactly?

Seems the "safety" remark was an overreaction by the restaurant. I wouldn't have taken down the sign due to one complaint, unless that complaint came from a very large percentage of my customer base.

Muslims are offensive to me. Tell b-ach to pound sand.

Grow up and stop pacifying all the pukes in this country.

Something sort of related...

I don’t eat pork, but like the fact that others do… it leaves more ribeyes for me.

This is how it starts; first we give in on the small things, probably because the bistro owner doesn't want his head cut off, and eventually we'll hand over everything.

Some people have posted that they're afraid of the world their kids will have when they grow up and I used to think it was hyperbole. Not any more.

People usually fight back when invaders come. Not leftists!

The only safety concern is whether or not that muslim **** will come in there and try to behead anyone eating bacon or not. If she don't like the sign, tough shiit.

I wonder if the woman has had her genitals mutilated?

They seem to get really bent over a sign but willingly (ok, maybe not willingly) submit themselves to degradation and abuse.

Probably not where you live. Folks down there would take ol' Muhammad "alligator hunting" and use him as bait.

I am thinking a line of CafePress items featuring an American flag made out of bacon.

Would it sell?

Eh, that's a stretch. I was in a bar with 4 Egyptions the other night and the bar was having a "bacon night". The Egyptions were having just as much fun as everyone else but they didn't eat the bacon. They did drink the beer though. Good people.
