bbc news: A story based on the Three Little Pigs fairy tale has been turned by a government agency’s awards panel as the subject matter could offend Muslims.
The digital book, re-telling the classic story, 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 Bett Award for schools.
The judges also attacked Three Little Cowboy Builders for offending builders.
The book’s creative director, Anne Curtis, said the idea that including pigs in a story could be interpreted as racism was “like a slap in the face”.
T|B Opinion: I don’t care. I do not care if a Muslim [extremist] is offended by anything that I choose to say, think or do. Nor do I have any interest in appeasing these Muslims.
The truth is that Muslim [extremists] are offended by anyone who chooses not to be a Muslim. They don’t believe in freedom of religion, freedom of speech, etc. Period. So, why should I be concerned with what they think? They could care less about what I think, right? They do not care that I am offended by stoning, decapitation, female persecution, their lack of civil rights ethic, suicide bombings, intolerance, etc.
Here’s the kicker: What I find truly offensive is the rest of the world’s compulsive need to walk on eggshells when it comes to the Muslim community. We can’t display a picture of their prophet [that’s offensive], we can’t name teddy-bears “Mohammed” [that’s offensive], kids can’t read books about 3 little pigs [that’s offensive], we can’t discuss our thoughts on their religion [that’s offensive]- - fuck that. You people have taken “politically correct” to absolutely staggering heights. Why? Because some stoneage culture got their feelings hurt? Grow some balls, people. Stand up for what you believe in, because if you don’t, they will.
I agree. Fuck these hyper-sensitve fucks. Fuck all religion and definatley fuck muslims who think they will rule the world. I am far from christain but I will join a crusade that stomps these fuckers into the mud.
WELL SAID! YOU SHOULD START A CAMPAIGN! I DON’T THINK IT COULD OF BEEN BETTER SAID!
