Religious objection to sniffer dogs (HINT: Not Buddhists)

Muslim train passengers' aversions to sniffer dogs and body scanners would not prevent them being subject to random security searches, British Transport Police (BTP) have indicated.

Some Muslims objected to the use of explosive-detecting dogs in a rail security trial at Brighton station, the Government revealed.

How do you say "tough ####" Arabic?

[Kolokotronis]

Perhaps they’d be willing to submit to strip and body cavity searches as an alternative.

[Soliton]

We should make an exception for muslims and let them board airplanes and tranes without searching them. What harm could it do?

[faloi]

Pigs are supposed to have very sensitive noses. Maybe we can train those to sniff explosives instead?

[coloradan]

I was just going to suggest exactly that. They can sense truffles better than dogs can, IIRC.

I don’t object to Muslims objecting to sniffer dogs for religious reasons, as long as they do not object to having sniffer dogs individually assigned to them for religious reasons. /rimshot

Will "boos t'eezy" do? It's Arabic for "Kiss my a**".

[San Jacinto]

This is too rich!!! Subject everyone to sniffer dogs and body scans except Muslims!!!

"What's that Mr. Atta? You say your're a Muslim? Okay, pass right on through."

“Muslim train passengers’ aversions to sniffer dogs and body scanners would not prevent them being subject to random security searches, British Transport Police (BTP) have indicated.”

After they riot a few times, burn some cars and kill some infidels over the issue, I predict the British authorities will capitulate.

Sniff, sniff, sniff....sniff, sniff, sniff...

[red irish]

Now that is a good alternative!! And I am sure that since they would want to be very good Muslims they would be more than glad to take advantage of the alternative for the cause of security!

[ThomasThomas]

Don't pigs have a good sniffer on them. We need to make sure nobody is illegally transporting truffles. I don't know if pigs would be good for explosives, who cares that isn't why we would use them. Truffle smuggling ends to be stopped.

[FreeAtlanta]

how about a sniffer pig?

[TexasRepublic]

Any mudslime refusing a sniff inspection should be presumed laden with a bomb-belt and dealt with accordingly.

[stuartcr]

Just use robotic sniffer dogs.

[Redcloak]

If memory serves, the Koran approves the use of dogs as working animals.

[monkeycard]

They should be using sniffer pigs.

[forkinsocket]

My boyfriend uses ذلف roh athlaf (Gulf dialect). "Go & f*ck off".

[Humble Servant]

Right. We should switch to sniffer pigs. They are the only way there is to find truffles, and would probably be very good at finding other things too.

[Da Coyote]

I object to Muslims on my trains and planes. Got a problem with that?

[river rat]

I suspect Islamists despise dogs, because they realize the dog is a superior life form.
