I knew you guys would catch that one!

Here's one I prepared earlier:

Prison Guard Sacked For Insulting a Muslim

Outrageous unfairness to Mr Rose - hope he wins the tribunal.

However, the key reason why the assistant governor should be sacked is not for being unfair to Mr Rose, but for being a particularly vile racist. Osama bin Laden is an evil bastard, everyone knows ObL is an evil bastard, and to assume that dissing ObL in front of Muslims will offend them is to assume that all Muslims are terrorists.

This is far worse than a one-off lapse from PC speak... as a comparison, I'd infinitely rather work for a black boss who hated the BNP and regularly sounded off about how evil the BNP scum were, than one who assumed that I must support the BNP because I was white.

"and to assume that dissing ObL in front of Muslims will offend them is to assume that all Muslims are terrorists."

Absolutely.

I expect to hear Muslims commenting in a similar fashion soon ... as they have in cases where, for example, charity shops banned Christmas cards for fear of causing offence. Several prominent Muslims pointed out how stupid that was...

How can we expect a man, this Andrew Rogers, to do a good job as an assistant prison governor when he finds such comments offensive.

He must wonder through the wings of the prison with his fingers in his ears, singing at the top of his voice in an attempt to avoid loosing his mind, what with all those 'rude' prisoners commenting at every opportunity.

Or has he lost his mind. Is this behaviour the result of an "Oi! Screw!" comment ruthlessly thrown at him on a previous occasion?

Osama bin Laden is an evil bastard, everyone knows ObL is an evil bastard, and to assume that dissing ObL in front of Muslims will offend them is to assume that all Muslims are terrorists.

Nothing more to add

OT:

You might be amused by a Marxist who actually understands Marx and is a real progressive:

He supports the War On Saddam on Marxist Principles - bet you thought they didn't have any. :-)

Ahhh [resigned sigh with attached shrug] - there are so many people in the world who would be better off dead. And you guys unerringly find every last one of them and parade them for our amusement. The idiot who thinks insulting bin Laden will offend Muslims, the charity shops who ban Xmas cards, the EUniks who issue regulations governing the maximum height of rocking horses (60cm, to be exact)...

The weight of all this idiocy has totally squelched my desire to blog, it really has. How does Briffa endure Toynbee column after Toynbee column without wanting to just end himself?

Balls of steel, one assumes...

Each time I read something like this, I mutter to myself, "another name to add to my list", as I hear the melody from Gilbert & Sullivan's "Mikado" - specifically the tune, "I've got a little list".

Not only keeps me sane, it give me good dreams... 8^)

and yes, I am.

And a pecker to match, Steven.

Come on Les! How many real people support your garbage on the web. Get real Les! You hide behind this hocus pocus, voodoo, cult type of crap to avoid the facts of your own life. You personify arrogance, hatred and ignorance. Thats why i must let people know about what you stand for and that's a lot of fictive fickle minded B.S. So what if some of your brain washed fanatic followers take your side on this. The truth will still stand. As far as my past attacks on your dumb blog. They were for a reason. To let all fools like you know. If you dont start nothing it wont be nothing. But you just had to start the madness. Even when my first comment ever posted was not even about you and Dave. You sort of make me wonder. How sick can the world really be. Some people joke about things in life. Others just take things way to literal. Even though you may express your belief and opinions. They should not be directed at any other type of people as an insult. So you just had to direct that mess at me on your stupid blog. Thats why i had to return the response. Even if my reply was negative and cruel. When a man wants beef. Tit for tat i bring him his serving. Boy! did you mess with the wrong dude or what. Yes LES! (Stupid Evil Bastard) Jenkins or whatever your code name is. I said it! We all are entitled to are own opinion's right? If you cant stand the heat get out of the kitchen with all of that weird and spooky gossip. Do you think that the crap on your web (diary) or whatever it is turns out like....... vintage wine that gets finer over time like gold of some precious metal. MAN PLEASE! Dont make me laugh. Your comments and statements are bewildering and beyond the realms of true reality.
