Apparently dogs are 'unclean', and an event held in Scotland and opened with a ceremony involving Scottish terriers has angered Malaysian muslims. This is the most pathetic muslim complaint I have heard yet. Are we supposed to give a flying **** about this? Does it not seem an incredibly arrogant complaint to make at an event where you are just one nation out of dozens - no one else should get to see the dogs because your bat**** cult doesn't like them?
I hope I'm not getting prejudiced, but I sometimes feel that they are getting used to playing the 'Let us tell you what to do or you are persecuting us' card, that religion loves to play.
I personally think we give them too much respect. If they don't like Scottie dogs being shown in SCOTLAND, for Christ's sake, then they can catch the first plane back to Malaysia.
As a immigrant myself, I have NO sympathy, empathy, or respect for any moron who chooses to visit or live in someone ELSE'S country and then complain about the cultures and customs that offend them - and worse yet, to expect that nation to change their ways just for you.
Do you really think a Westerner would get any respect if he should complain about some Malaysian custom? No, that Westerner would probably end up in jail, flogged, deported, or executed.
If those Muslims don't like dogs, then they are free not to attend the games. Period. But I couldn't give a damn if those sanctimonious pinheads are offended or not.
In fact, for next year's games, I would make sure there were dogs all over the place. I might even make up some bogus security concerns just as an excuse to have sniffer dogs there - and let them climb all over those Muslims, sniffing away until their "uncleanliness" got all over their clothes. The more drool, eye pus, dog hair, nose slime, and transferred dingleberries, the better.
Yeah, I can be vindictive that way - but it is a peeve of mine when foreigners come to a new nation and then expect the locals to change what they do, what they say, what they eat, how they live just so that a bunch of foreign visitors are happy. That takes a gutsy stupidity that ought to earn some people a deportation.
I have about as much sympathy for offended Muslims as I do offended Christians.
All those Abrahamists have an asinine set of societal rules that just don't jibe with my tolerant radical-traditionalist European belief system.
