Thank God our ancestors left that place and came here to found this great nation! We must NOT become like Europe, where a disgruntled troublemaker can sue in such a frivolous manner. We are already too far down the same path. We must reverse course as soon as we can.

I see the world of Islam can add some shysterism to stonings, homocide bombings and all the rest.

I love it. In euro football, Arsenal is my team but I’ve seen the IM’s unis before and didn’t offend me 1 bit. Leave it to the muslims to be offended when they see ANY cross.

Islam itself offends the sensibilities of billions of people worldwide who do not believe in it.

A Turkish lawyer is taking legal action against Inter Milan, the Italian football team, for wearing a strip with “Crusader-style” red crosses that he alleges is ”offensive to Muslim sensibilities”.

It's a pity his feelings are hurt. I think the “Crusader-style” red cross are just awesome.

They could send a mild message by wearing the red crosses and each of them stepping on a copy of the injunction. : )

Well then I'M offended by this club's crest...

Saved by a Soccer emblem based on the Third Crusade

A Briton escaped being killed by Muslim fanatics — because they thought his Portsmouth Football Club sticker was an Islamic emblem. Terrified Tony Restall, 56, was ambushed by Arab fundamentalists in strife-torn Yemen. The bandits, armed with AK-47 rifles, dragged him and his armed guard out of their car and threatened to either execute or take them hostage. Then they spotted Pompey fan Tony’s club sticker in a window and thought the moon and star symbols meant he was a practising Muslim.... “But they spotted my Portsmouth FC sticker and the mood changed. They thought I was Muslim as the star and moon are Muslim symbols. “I was able to convince them that, although I was Western, I was helping Muslims in the area.”.... Portsmouth FC based their badge on the city’s 900-year-old coat of arms. The crest used the symbol of King Richard’s chancellor William de Longchamp, who adopted a crescent moon and star in honour of the Third Crusade.

snicker.../sarcasm

Filthy disgusting hypocrites. They are offended by a symbol on a shirt, by a cartoon, by true words spoken by the Pope, by a name given to a teddy bear.
And I’m offended by the murder of Daniel Pearl, carried on with religious chants and videotaping, by the imprisonment and murder of school children in Beslan, by the murder of 3000 innocents in September 2001.

I am offended too every time I see the Muslim symbols of the sword and crescent moon. Reminds me of that bloody time in history when these animals spread out over the world forcing people to change their religions with the sword, rape and destruction of nations. The Knights Templer must have been pretty ferocious if these people still hate and fear them after a thousand years.

Muslim sensibilities

Jumbo shrimp. Pardon my Jane Austen, but one must have sense to have sensibilities.

So it may not be a good idea for me to wear my Holy Cross Crusaders hat if I ever visit Constantinople.

OOOPS, I meant Istanbul.
