Three Little Pigs = Too Offensive
I don’t know a whole lot of Muslims who think this way, so I can’t really blame them for this. I blame guilty white people who think everyone has paper thin skin…
A story based on the Three Little Pigs has been turned down from a government agency’s annual awards because the subject matter could offend Muslims. The digital book, re-telling the classic fairy tale, was rejected by judges who warned that “the use of pigs raises cultural issues”. Becta, the government’s educational technology agency, is a leading partner in the annual schools award.

What a bunch of pansies. It’s never the Muslims that complain about things like this, but social do-gooders. It’s also not like Muslims are offended by the existence of pigs.

Did it depict a Muslim being force fed a cartoon pig? Because maybe that would be considered offensive. Other than that, someone ought to be fired for this stupidity.
We should ban ham and bacon in America, because that would offend… oh, wait and cows also… hmmmm… I suppose meat might offend vegans… screw it, we may as well all just kill ourselves… wait… that would offend Christians…
Damn it all…
