DON'T FORGET NEXT SATURDAY!


*As you may already know, it is a sin for a Muslim male to see any woman
other than
his wife naked. He must commit suicide if he does. So next Saturday at 4
PM
Eastern
Time, all American women are asked to walk out of their house completely
naked to
help weed out any neighborhood terrorists. Circling your block for one
hour
is recommended
for this anti-terrorist effort. *


Ewww, this is nasty. Don't we have enough bigotry as it is? I really
wish people wouldn't post offensive stuff like this. But if people are
going to post this, then they are officially forfeiting any grounds to
complain when other people post their political opinions. And mine is
that Muslims aren't terrorists any more than any other group of people.
So please stop spreading stupid (and dangerous) stereotypes and attitudes.


Nope, don't find it funny. No sense of humor about it, sorry.


Joyce, annoyed


Good response, Joyce. I was very disappointed when I saw this (unfunny)
joke, and for the same reasons you listed. Thank you!

Strange what we all find "nasty" or "offensive", isn't it? There are
people who
post here who never utter a political or religious opinion who IMHO
are these
two adjectives. Also, IMHO they forfeit their right to *nothing*.
You're just
worked up. I don't have a "plonk", you do. Pull an Evelyn and "plonk".
I
personally find communication to a complete stranger,
reminding them of their imminent demise from one of the most painful
diseases there is, knowing the ailing one has mostly succeeded in
mental blockage of upcoming happening. Guess it's just my past medical
"career" but guess what? I've actually watched people die of this. But
hey,
rpca "family" can get worked up over whatever floats your boat as long
as
the BKGP isn't p***** off, right?


Am I the only one scratching their head asking "What the h**l are you
talking about"? Sorry, I find it offensive as well and I probably
wouldn't have said anything except that I think if I don't then I'm a
bigot as well.
