Point some are making or trying too. Why doesn't any American Citizen, go to their Country, any middle Eastern Country, and dictate to these people, what food signs offend them, and to take them down. What do you think would happen?
Is that not sort of what we have been doing in Iraq and Afghanistan?

No way in hell you let someone like this dictate something like this, you do not see little things happening then you choose not to want to see. Do not like one business, take your pick there are others. They dictate one thing to us, next thing you know, they will be dictating a hell of a lot more, because they know they can. Do not be naiv'e Chit happens as they say, and starts out little.
So certainly you can understand why so many in other countries are pissed at us.
A Muslim woman complained that a Sneakers Bistro bacon ad was offensive.
The Winooski. Vermont restaurant took down the ad but according to BrietBart it's Facebook page said:
"we are here to serve people BREAKFAST, not politics. We removed the sign that was located on public property as a gesture of respect for our diverse community. There were also concerns raised about safety [emphasis added]. Removing it was not a difficult decision. We still love bacon. We still love eggs. Please have the political conversation elsewhere."
