"An advert for hair dye, which showed a woman peering into her bikini bottoms, was painted over by Muslims in Luton. A spokesman said the poster would be “extremely offensive” to a Muslim man if he passed it on his way to prayers."

Does this mean we should cowtow to the offended...as long as they're in the PC right?

It must really s#ck to be British...right now..

I wonder if it would be offensive if he was walking by and not on his way to prayers... ??

Why don't they "pass on their way to prayers" in Pakistan, Syria, or some other ME sh*thole, instead of trying to change Western countries?

Along with every other right, Muslim women are denied the right to be offended, so it's all about Muslim men...as usual.
