I guess there are some muslims in Texas who aren’t too happy about living in the land of Cowboys!
It seems a group of muslims bought some land in Texas recently. They plan to build a mosque there. Meanwhile, they have tried to get the neighboring land that has been in the landowners family since the 1800s. The neighboring landowner didn’t like that a bit, so he’s hosting the pig chasing race.
The muslims don’t seem to see the humor in that.
More over, other neighbors are not happy about the muslims moving in and building a mosque. The muslims are confused because while neighbors have complained about the mosque moving into their neighborhood, no one has complained about the pig races.
The muslims don’t seem to see the humor in that either.
I don’t get it. What on earth is wrong with wholesome outdoor activities like pig races? That’s the American way!! That’s the Texan way.
I’m sure there’s a neighborhood in say, Syria, that would have no problem at all with welcoming their mosque.
I love America!
Yeeeee - haaawwwwwwww
Here’s the source where a commenter is a former American who is embarassed that Americans are so IG-NER-RENT. Well, I think the commenter ought to get a sense of humor too.

They still haven’t approved my response comment over at the original site. Facists!

Thanks Life Cruiser! I love your blog and yes it is fun.
William - Yeah! Facists! That comment was just awful… she’s embarassed to be an American. Well, she shouldn’t worry - as far as I’m concerned she ISN’T. Hopefully, she’ll just stay up in Canada.

Tolerance is a two-way street, and it seems like both groups are driving in the wrong direction.

I’m with you….what’s the problem. I guess the Muslims are not familiar with the phrase “When in Rome”…..or I guess I should say “When in Texas”!!!
YEEEEE HAAAAAAWWWWWW!

God bless the Lone Star State.
If things up here in Washington get worse, I’m going to have to move there. If the U.S. begins to fall like Europe, Texas will be the last stand.
Remember the Alamo!

Muslims are so easily offended … so easily disturbed … so fast to cock the hammers on their mouths. I wish they’d just give it a rest. What next? Will they boycott supermarkets that sell bacon? Give me a break!

Speaking for myself as a Houstonian Muslim and someone who loves animal, I can say that I regret not being able to join in the fun. For some of my less enlightened fellow Americans, Muslims do not hate any animal, not even pigs. Muslims are simply required to not eat the flesh of swine just like the Jews and Christians (the original ones at least) were told in the Bible. Also since pigs roll in dirt and eat their own refuse, Muslims are required to wash their hands after touching a pig.
