Bikini advert blacked out with spray paint by 'Muslim extremists who object to women in swimsuits'

She is supposed to be advertising a sexy bikini.

But instead the model on this poster, in Birmingham, has been defaced in an act of vandalism blamed on militant Muslims who were offended by her flesh.

Similar acts of vandalism have been carried out in the London borough of Tower Hamlets. Police there also believe extremists are responsible.

The advert, which promotes a £3.99 bikini top from high-street fashion retailer H&M, a scantily-dressed model stands on a sun-kissed, white sand beach.

The freestanding advertising unit, stands in the Balsall Heath area of Birmingham, which has a large Muslim population.

Across the road from 'Muslim Students House Masjeed', an education centre, the poster is next to a busy main road.

The fact that almost all of the model's flesh has been covered has led local residents to speculate that the vandalism was not random, but a religiously-motivated targetted attack.

Delivery driver Robert Tonkins, 45, said: "You see a lot of women wearing the hijab around here, and what's been done to that poster looks very similar to it.

'I don't think it's just kids messing around - they've spray-painted specific areas and covered up anything that might be offensive to very religious people.

I can still tell she’s not guilty.

OBL is swimming with the fishes and the Culture War continues.

[struggle]

I find mosques offensive.

In the Muzim mind, it’s OK to beat up women and stone them to death, but it’s not OK to look at them.

[swain_forkbeard]

Council information on rear?

That’s one way to get people to pay attention to it.

Where's the spray paint?

Well that settles it! We now know who runs Britain (Great omitted intentionally). It is not the immoral white Caucasians, it is the upright, religious, Allah-fearing, PC correct Muslims.

[Logic n' Reason]

I'm not too sure I see a great deal of difference between this exercise in the withdrawl of free speech by a muslim....and the religious zealots who persist in planting huge, white painted crosses on hills next to the highways.

Religious zealotry is religious zealotry.

Wars have been started for less.

[crosshairs]

Maybe they’re becoming more civilized. Rather than chopping off heads, they resort to spray paint vandalism like the yutes. Nawwwwww!

“In the Muzim mind, it’s OK to beat up women and stone them to death, but it’s not OK to look at them.”

They prefer goats and camels anyway.

Islam can go back to HELL.

It should be illegal to deface Megyn Kelly in such a despicable way.

I'm not too sure I see a great deal of difference between this exercise in the withdrawl of free speech by a muslim....and the religious zealots who persist in planting huge, white painted crosses on hills next to the highways.

I see a huge difference between members of "Group M" covering other peoples' private property with spray paint, and members of "Group C" erecting religious symbols on their own private property.

Perhaps if you apply a bit of logic and reason to the problem then you, too, will see the difference.

Ok, lets see her rear.

[driftdiver]

I wouldnt mind seeing the council information.

[Avery Iota Kracker]

Culture war my butt tocks, they’re all gay, that’s what.

[lowbridge]

But instead the model on this poster, in Birmingham, has been defaced in an act of vandalism blamed on militant Muslims who were offended by her flesh.

Well, according to the laws of Great Britain, this means that the offending model, the company that made up her posters, all must be stoned to death.

[Puppage]

That’s not spray paint.....that’s just your typical, everyday, run of the mill hairy muslim chick.

[VeniVidiVici]

I sense an opportunity....

Hard to say which would be more disgusting...walking in on two guys having sex or a guy and a goat.
