Wow! Some of the people here are really angry. Why so much hate? Yes, what the women did was not the best example of her religion, but I still respect the religion and their people. It is easy to get angry at the certain religion due to the activists. But the hate on this thread is: wow. I don't see why this makes everyone so angry. It's annoying, but no reason to attack people.

 

i don't know why? maybe because the increase of that religion in their own countries is destabilizing the social order. there are no go zones across western europe where native europeans can't go for fear of being attacked. nothing good ever happens where ever islam goes.

Max Krassman: Say goodbye to your frog, pig!
Miss Piggy: Why should I?
Max Krassman: Because in 10 seconds, he won't know *you* from kosher bacon.

 

 

Don't know why that suddenly came to me ? saw the movie almost 35 years ago.

while i agree with you, there fellow neowiner who in denials about the no go zones.

It is clear the customer did something other than order Bacon that made him shout what he did, would be interesting to see the before events.  Either way KFC took the customer is always right attitude and suspended the employee

 

From the video its seems that the customer just asked for bacon and the guy flipped out, hence why the other employee says there is no bacon. Also we don't know if KFC suspended the employee the person who quoted me earlier was clearly making up stuff because he didn't even know what retail chain it happened in.

Out of interest, how many of you are offended by dog-meat restaurants?

 

If i was in a country that routinely and traditionally eats dog meat then i'd both not be and also have no right to be offended by it.

 

The amount of western travelers to countries that serve dog meat is huge, but i've never seen any news about them throwing their toys out of the pram about it.

It started with a post from one woman who wrote that the sign was insensitive to those who do not consume pork. She said as a vegan living in a Muslim household she is personally offended by it.

 

I prefer not to read anything from jihadwatch as it is heavily biased.

 

The above quote was taken from the source. It did not say that the woman is a Muslim, but living in a Muslim household. Who knows, maybe she is renting a room there and gets food there. 

^ On the few occasions where I've spent more than a couple of weeks in another country, I've always made it a point to make sure I'm not doing anything against local laws & customs in public places.  That included, when I lived in Florida for 6 months back in the 80's, letting my neighbours drag me to their local church because, well, everyone went to church!

 

I didn't kick up a fuss, and I saw no point in telling them I was an atheist.  It cost me nothing to sing a couple of songs, and it made my friends there happy.  They just wanted to include me in their community, and that was nice. :)

 

^^^ This post should be pinned at the top of the forum for all future and past discussions on similar topics, as it is just so damn spot on

The guy was clearly unfit for a job in fast food. He could have calmly replied that they do not sell bacon.

He's pretty lucky because if he'd tried that in my home town the customer would have leapt the counter and taught him a valuable life lesson.

You need to read the whole story from a better placed source than the one OP posted. The restaurant placed those ads in the woman's neighbourhood, if you read the reports and the Facebook pages there were more from her neighbourhood that objected to the placing of the ad, some of them were patrons of the restaurant.  You do the math. 

 

 

I guess if she lives in a neighborhood she can dictate what advertising takes place there? Was the ad racist? Sexist? Graphically violent? No. They would all be valid reasons to object, her superstitious view on pork is not.

 

Just so everyone is clear, this is the offending sign:

That's it. Poor women must have been shaken to the core when she saw this ghastly affront to her world view. :rolleyes:

When I lived in China, I would see dog meat in the grocery store fairly often. There's nothing to get offended about. It's a different country/culture.

 

I lived there on and off for 8 years, and there were plenty of things that I saw that I didn't like. Not once did I throw a hissy fit and demand them to change things to accommodate me. It blows my mind that people have the audacity to do that here, and even more so that we accommodate them instead of telling them to STFU and go back to their country if they don't like the way we do things here.

there should been study to show which group that loves to throw hissy fit, just because it "offend" their superstitious belief,

and i curious other than muslims is there any groups that would rival them?

They need a group to counter ISIS. They can call it PORK. People Opposing Religious Killers.

 

Capture them and force them to eat bacon.

 

Do I send you the check?    ;)

I dont eat pork - the sign wouldnt bother me at all - just like a sign for women's hygeine products - it simply doesnt apply to me.

Can you imagine what would happen if some non-muslim went to some muslim country and started complaining ?

Reason # 33495786394578   why I hate [insert group here]

She doesn't say anything in the video, she never calls him a bitch. The muslim guy behind the counter who goes nuts is the one who calls her a bitch.

 

Its interesting that you have found many reports about how this happened and even one from Subway that says that the customer harassed their employee but they still had to suspend the employee to cover their asses considering this happened in a KFC fast food outlet rather than a Subway...

 

Not sure why you think Subway is part of the muslim fast food outlets, its actually from the US and so is KFC which is where the video actually took place. (Did you even watch the video?)

 

 

Not sure if you bothered to pay attention to video at all because the angry clearly said "who you calling a bitch," I can only assume you have a problem with some who is Muslim or you would not back up the crazy lady who felt the need to record a argument that she started half way.

 

 

It is interesting how short sighted you are when there is clearly two sides of the story but media like FOX News felt to report half ass which is typical when it comes from Conservative news.

He says "Don't record me bitch, don't ######ing record me", I think you need to clean out your ears, he never said 'who you calling a bitch'.

 

The video was never on FOX news, its a video a youtuber posted to their channel when a friend of theirs got harassed by a KFC employee when she asked for bacon on a chicken burger.

 

Obviously there is always going to be two sides to a story and I'm going to believe the side that has video footage, not the side that gets even angrier when they are being recorded.

    • I'm not unblocking my camera for this crapola. Sorry, Google.
    • Ummmm that is what is it supposed to do. Just turn if off in settings if you do not want it analyzing your open tabs. Chrome does the same thing with Gemini. Sarfari will do the samething after Apple's AI and even more so with the release of their 27 versions that is now powered by Googles LLM/ML models. Understanding why it is doing it and how it can help you vs jumping to some conspiracy theroy is a much better approach. As long as it can be turned off, all is good. Yes the default should be off but the a lot of people would never discover these features.
    • Just another reason (aside from many others) not to use Edge. Firefox 153.0b5 DEx64 has a similar feature added recently in prior builds that I will turn off at some point when I get around to it. It's the new "Something looks suspicious" page that pops up here and there. It cleverly hides itself between web pages that I've actually visited; as a result, you know, of selecting a web page and telling the browser where to go. The interesting thing is that it does not produce these warnings from pages that I, as the only intelligent user of the browser in my system, have ever directed the browser to open! What seems to be happening is that the browser looks at all the goofy ad links on a web page I do actually open and selects one that "looks suspicious" and then creates the "something looks suspicious" web page, which is neatly inserted, as mentioned, between web pages my RB ("real brain") has directed the browser to load in a session. The thing is, I usually look at links I am considering to follow before I ask the browser to load them, and in cases I have noticed where the link does indeed look suspicious, most of the time I will choose to not follow the link at all. Doesn't everyone do this or something similar? I am picky about what I voluntarily load... (I don't like links that start off fine, with a site designaiton that seems normal enough but then is followed by indecipherable alphanumeric strings many, many lines long, etc. I tend to reject those because they look suspicious. They may not be, but I don't care... I'll stay with Firefox, of course, if for no other reason than they usually let you turn off the junk you don't like. And because it isn't Edge... But at some point Microsoft will come to realize that putting your bookmarks on the left side is a Good Thing for a lot of people, just as Microsoft discovered when it had the bright idea of nailing the Windows taskbar to the bottom of the screen, when for decades Microsoft browsers had left that placement up to the user. They have finally reversed the obscenity of that decision. Finally.
