Ham, ham, ham, ham, ham, ham. Then throw in some pork. And top if off with some bacon. If you’re offended by that, go read the lunatics over at the DailyKos.com. Otherwise, keep reading.
TypicallySpanish.com has this report of political correctness run amok:
The parents of a Muslim boy who attends a secondary school in La Línea, Cádiz province, have reported their son’s teacher for an incident in the boy’s geography class which the child said caused him offence as a Muslim.
The teacher, with more than 20 years in the profession, was explaining to the class how the cold climate in Trevélez, Granada province, aided in the curing of the village’s most famous local product, jamón serrano. The boy told his teacher that hearing the word ‘ham’ in class was offensive to him because of his religion and asked his geography teacher to stop referring to the product which caused him offence.
El Mundo newspaper reports that the boy’s parents then reported the teacher to both the National Police and to the courts. It’s understood that an internal investigation is also underway by the education authority in Cádiz province.
Mmmmm, ham. It puts the fat in fatwa.

Update: The prosecutor had an attack of normal intelligence and tossed the case. "No crime"
GOOD!
I dislike idiot judges obviously this guy is not an idiot.
Tell the little dink to stuff that ham where the dancing boys like to play.
A pork rind and bacon bits shower over Mecca during Ramadamadingdong would make the place untouchable forever... Is that offensive?
Not to me.
Islham !!
I'm baking a 9 pound ham for Christmas. Oh, those are two things they don't believe in. Heh.
You give them an inch, they take a thousand miles. It's time to slap them, and tell them to get back in their chairs and shut up like the rest of the class. Should slap that boy with a sausage link.
That's Barney Frank's job.
I wonder if Barney will get an age waiver to join the military. I'm sure he would love to hand out towels in the men's locker room.
Someone has to do it. Why not let Barney have a job in glory?
Instead of "Draw Mohammad Day," we need "Eat and Talk About Ham Day."
Man oh man oh man! When we become sharia compliant we can look forward to this too. We currently have four supreme court justices who just need a nudge to go there. These people (muslims) are not your/our friends and they don't want to be your/our friends. We are Kafireen: unbelievers, non-muslims, non-human. For all of you professed athiests and neo-pagans...you'll be first to experience shaunken (arabic for decapitation)!
Well all I know is that they better not get between me and pork. We are going to have words and exchange gun play if necessary. I ain't going down passive.
I'm munching on the leftovers of a fine pork roast right now. I'm with Kimmy. Don't try to stop us, we're an army of two. Two very pissed off people if you try to take our pork. And just for the kid in Spain, we'll talk about it, too.
Good for you, I bet it tastes good too. I am for real if someone gets between me and pork there will be blood. There isn't anyone on this planet that is going to tell me what to eat and MOST DEFINETLY is not going to stop me talking about it either.
I could easily see this happening in our schools here in America. Everyone wants to be offended by something. I'm actually very difficult to offend, but the "victim" mentality is offensive.
Trust me if I was a teacher and a fool came to me with that I will tell him that he needs to calm down, that the culture that his family immigrated to does not find pork offensive and if he still insists in having a problem with it, he can go to the library and read a book. If I get fired I will sue.
I didn't come into this country so this country will bend to the culture that I left. If I willingly immigrate is for me to meld with the culture I am entering into... I dont HAVE to participate in the parts of the culture that I don't agree with morally or philosophically, but I deal with it and I don't kill people because I don't agree. That is the normal ways of things. This is just one of the many reasons I got a problem with Islam. I understand that pork is gross to them and I accept that and I am alright with it, but heck, they willingly moved to Spain, the country revolves around pork, seriously deal with it...
I would like it if the next time some unctuous, PC police-person, needs to be offended by proxy for us, gestapo officer; screams about a Nativity Scene: simply tell them that it is a baby Mohammad in the manger. Stand back and wait for the cataclysmic head explosion. Who will be offended first/most? Or who will drive a suicide camel into a church?
This post is hilarious thanks!
HEY!! Representations of Mohammad are banned! Don't you know?! You are very offensive! But somehow, I'm not offended.
Oh go cry me a river.
I wouldn't kill for a honey glazed ham sandwich just torn off the bone right now, but I sure would like one.
I have one in the fridge right now....OINK!
