Dead pig found at Houston mosque
The Houston Chronicle ^ | 5 December 2012 | Anita Hassan

Posted on 12/06/2012 7:50:29 AM PST by MeneMeneTekelUpharsin

The small, black pig lay dead on its side upon the wooden deck, a deep gash on the side of its belly.

That's what a congregant at the Islamic Outreach Center saw Tuesday evening when he and a handful of other worshippers arrived for nightly prayers. Worshippers also found blood stains near the door of the Harris County mosque.

"It looked like someone was trying to take it inside, but it was locked," said Ilyas Choudry, who helps run the center.

At the end of a news conference on Wednesday about the incident, mosque officials also discovered what appeared to be animal intestines hanging from the facility's front gate.The intestines may have come from the pig, which appeared to be cut open.

Mosque officials believe someone may have left the pig at the Cypress-area center as an act of hate. They called the Harris County Sheriff's Office, which is investigating.

This is a dastardly, cowardly act that demands a response from all of us here.

I’m saying a prayer for the pig right now.

PETA should start a full investigation of the mosque.

How many people will need to be murdered to avenge this “outrage”?

Well, if they react as fast as they did to the video in Benghazi, we'll find out in six months or so (/sarc).

What we need to do is something akin to the ‘scorched earth’ tactics of yore. Atomize bacon fat and aerosol the entire country landscape.

I understand the feelings of some here as to their reaction to the desecration of a mosque, at least at first blush. It is certainly the case that most terrorist acts worldwide today are perpetrated by Islamic people. I get that.

But I think it is wrong to denegrate any religion, even Islam. This country was largely founded upon freedom of religion and freedom of speech. (And I don’t buy any claim that gutting a pig and leaving it at a mosque is protected speech.) I support full-on assault for terrorists, Islamic or otherwise. I just can’t support attacks on religion per se, even Islamic religion. I could support attacks on a mosque that had been responsible for a terrorist act, but I don’t think that was the case here.

I cannot get behind this kind of attack— although I thought the remark about ham and Mohammed was pretty clever.

Just in case the muzzies don't know it, every square foot of the country has probably had wild hogs on it at some time. They may as well leave now.

Mean while Christians in this are being denounced , beaten and murdered and slaughtered in the name of Islam and the religion of peace . The meek will only inherit the ruins . There are no moderate muzzies they love death more than we love life . A moderate muzzie would stand up to the radicals in their faith ,, so where are they ,, do they out number the radicals ??? Islam is an evil faith ,,, take my word on it or suffer the consequence of ignorance . Look at the UK for proof .

"But I think it is wrong to denegrate any religion, even Islam."

Islam is a system of tyrranical government wrapped in the respetable cloak of religion. If only Hitler had formally declared himself a god, nazism would have engendered the same degree of respect as islam.
