The story is about bacon being taken out of a chicken burger... the rest is projected insecurities regarding people different to you.
I don't recall mentioning any names ??
just as an aside, in Sheffield and London KFC have been using halal meat for ages
Muslims are forbidden to masturabate or drink alcohol and have other harsh rules governing their day to day lives. Given all that, I don't see any reason not to allow them the occasional treat of a halal Colonel's Goat Curry and a Kentucky-Style falafel. I bet the happy meal is interesting though - I hear it comes with a pound of semtex and a mohammed action figure (face removed). An interesting point made by a Jewish friend of mine - halal food is supposed to be prepared by "the faithful" for it to satisfy the terms of the Koran. Does this mean that this KFC only employs muslims? How about Christian staff? Will they be discriminated against? I'm guessing probably yes, but that'll be ok and only if they're white Christians.
Personal abuse aside.....some things about me
1:I have little or no time for what is often (incorrectly) called political correctness - I call a spade a spade.
2:I'm a long way removed from what you might term a liberal (in any sense of the word)
3:I find the accusation of being middle-class offensive...I work in a factory on the shop floor I am confronted by the type of people who are unable to call asian people asian instead of every day,the arguments put forward here would sit well in their mouths they are to a man rascists...I had to leave my last job because I wouldn't let the casual rascism,sexism and homophobia I came across every day go unchallenged.
There are idiots at the wheel....I choose not to sit in the passenger seat uncomplaining...I may be a dickhead,but I got out of the car at the last stop...enjoy your journey.
Mean...as in mean-spirited just look at the crap you regurgitate about something as meaningless as a chicken burger....would you be making the same fuss if they'd gone kosher ?
Spiteful....pretty much covered above and below
Dangerous....how do you think the 7/7 bombers reached the conclusion that they lived in an enemy state? does it say so in the quran ? 99% of the muslim world don't think so. Is it at all possible that they were led to the conclusions they reached not in small part because of how prominent sections of society treated them?
BOLLOCKS to it, I've got this far so I'll post it but I'm so far past giving a shit what you think that I can't believe I ever tried
But you did try and I foro ne am grateful.
I think its more of a tiff than a spat now. I seem to recall when an argument descends into listing why your opinion is more important based on qualifications/experience it is officially a tiff.
A wise man once said never have an argument because you simply cant win. I think he may have been right.
