The word bacon is offensive.

they've reached out to the individual who made the post and proactively took the sign down. They also say they regret any harm caused by the sign, and that their goal was never to cause stress or bad feelings.


The sign must have attacked someone?
 
There is no "right to not be offended". People have the right to be outright jerks if they should so please. There is exactly one absolutely innapropriate type of speech that has to be legally banned, and that is a spoken threat. there is a second that probably ought to be regulated, and that is sexually descriptive and perverse speech in front of minors. Everything else falls into degrees of polite behavior.

A polite and civilized person aims not to offend anyone intentionally. An intelligent and mature person takes no offense in any words spoken save for threats. Easily offended persons and people trying to offend others are immature and foolish. Its not really worth society's time to cater to them or to really pay them any attention... ignore them and move along... preferably to a nice plate of bacon or, for those who do not eat meat, bacon flavored soy or something. It is this womans right to not partake of bacon or any other food for religious beliefs. It is not her right to impose any part of that on others.
 
This thread is useless without pictures. Then again, its probably a burka (sp?). The reporter sounds hot though.
 
I like Bacon.

Last night, the Mrs. and I made pizzas - one of the featured toppings was bacon. Delicious.

I find Islam personally offensive,and muslims should shelter themselves behind closed doors when I walk down the street.
 
I am offended by Muslims hijacking airplanes and crashing them into buildings on my birthday.
 
I'm offended by broccoli.

Yebbit you wouldn't go all whiny little self righteous ***** and demand that a restaurant take down a sign. You just wouldn't order broccoli.
 
If I had some spare money I would open a BBQ joint next to a mosque.

Watched some of a Simpson's marathon the other day. The Lisa the Vegetarian one's hilarious.

Homer: "Lisa, honey, are you saying you're never going to eat any animal again?

What about bacon?"

Lisa: "No."

Homer: "Ham?"

Lisa: "No."

Homer: "Pork chops?"

Lisa: "Dad! Those all come from the same animal!"

Homer: [mockingly] "Yeah, right, Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal."
 
"Mohammed's Pulled Pork BBQ. It's The Bomb!" I like the ring of that.
 
How long until karma refreshes? I owe you some for that Ron.

Something like this. I'm working on it. Opening franchises next to a mosque near YOU!

 
from the story "“We are here to serve people breakfast, not politics,” the owners wrote in a separate Facebook post over the weekend. “We removed the sign that was located on public property as a gesture of respect for our diverse community.”"

I wonder if the owners testicles are now on the menu, because he sure as hell doesn't have them between his legs anymore.
 
I find anything having to do with Islam offensive, including self righteous whiny ******* in burkas who get offended at a damn word.
