Yes, you read that correctly: the top book publisher in the world is submitting to Shariah law by banning the word “pork.” They are also going through and deleting references to pork and pigs in older classics as well.
“I’ve got a letter here that was sent out by OUP to an author doing something for young people,” said TV host Jim Naughtie,
whose wife Eleanor Updale is working with Oxford on an educational book
series. “Among the things prohibited in the text that was commissioned
by OUP was the following: Pigs plus sausages, or anything else which
could be perceived as pork.”
This crap has to stop. Give me pork any day of the week..........Rob

I understand that this article came from England, but we are just as nuts here. I wonder what it will take for us to stop bending over backwards to avoid offending those who believe that beheading Christians is OK. Me...think I'll have a ham sandwich for lunch.
Three of us ate a dozen brauts for lunch yesterday, and we might grill some more today.
Of course to help celebrate the 4th of July we are going to have pulled pork.
Allah bless or crap GOD BLESS THE USA. BIG EVIL GRIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
