All the peoples of the world can celebrate and work to preserve their own cultures. All except Europeans and North Americans. When they do it, it’s racism, bigotry, and “Islamophobia.”

Old France, it’s not pejorative. It’s our roots, it’s our heritage!
Contrary to the current trend, they have created a chain of 18 restaurants that exalts meat and good food. This France of hunters, rural, forgotten, it is their vein
Certainement pas la représentation de la ruralité.
De la bourgeoisie et de l’islamophobie*, ça oui.

Certainly not the representation of rurality.
Bourgeoisie and Islamophobia*, yes.

How is it “hatred” of mozlums to like pork? Is it also hatred of the Jews? And vegans?
How is it “fear” of mozlum to like pork? Is it also fear of the Jews? And vegans?
How is it discrimination* against mozlums to like pork? aren’t there restaurants which serve dishes other than pork…chicken and beef dishes….? veggie casseroles….salads….oatmeal with raisins….
there are many Jews in France, are there not? Are they yelling about the pork eaters?
This is so very tiresome…always whining, always complaining. What the French need to do is to stand up for themselves….and that includes the pols who make the big decisions about what can be done to stop the invasion and what is a big no-no.
onward pork eaters. bacon, chops, ham, roast

Spot on about how tiresome all this whining by Muslims is, somehistory. Of course, until all the peoples of the world submit and become Muslims, the endless whining by Muslims will never stop. Muslims are simply incompatible, and do not intend to try to get along peacefully with non-Muslims, so the only answer is for non-Muslim countries to wake and slam the door shut on letting the Muslim enemy in.
somehistory says
thanks, Tim. I’d like to tell them to go fly a kite. Leave my high and low on the hog alone.
Once, I had a job where three pakis were my bosses. One day, the two males told me I owed them money….them. I had not borrowed any on my pay and they hadn’t given me any extra. So, I said, after telling them I didn’t owe them and they insisted, “Well, you can’t get blood out of a turnip.”
They had no clue and began asking me what it meant. Instead of explaining, I just began throwing out the little sayings we Americans…esp in the South…learn from early life. Take a rope and jump it. Crawl under the bed and bump it.
I’d like to tell the whole kit and caboodle, “Go soak your heads and then don’t let the door hit you on the way out.” In other words, “get lost.” Or something similar.
they take advantage of nice and pay back with evil.
tim gallagher says
That was a pretty bad experience with the Pakistanis, somehistory. Glad you stood up to the maggots. I meet plenty of Muslims on a superficial level, just people serving in shops or in doctor’s offices, etc, and some seem OK, but i only worked with one Muslim guy and he seemed to be obsessed with the Jews (no surprise when you think of the Muslim hatred towards the Jews). This is back in the late 1990s. I remember that we had an attractive woman as our immediate boss, a pleasant woman, and he asked me whether she was Jewish. I thought, how weird. I don’t think that he was going to do any harm to her, but I could see that there was some weird obsession there. It also showed his ignorance. It told him, no, her surname is Irish just like mine. I was glad to move on to another workplace soon after. I got on OK with that Muslim, but he was definitely not a person I ever trusted at all.

I was assigned to an Egyptian when first out of school. I complained to my boss about his inappropriateness and no longer had to work with him. That was after seeing enough of who he was to comprehend the mentality. Good for you, SH.

Thank you, HP. They were slave drivers and cheated me. But, I survived to tell about it.
Glad you got out of having to work with him.
Goofy says
France is a free country with its own culture and tradition. If anyone has the wish to settle in France the French freedom must be respected. If you don’t like to eat pork, don’t eat it as long as you are in your home or you eat at a restaurant of your choice.
If you eat in a French institution like a prison you eat what is served there, pork or whatever. If you want to avoid eating pork you just steer clear of French prisons!
There is no reason to give VIP treatment to criminals. According to French tradition criminals are as close as you get to “Haram” and crime is to be eliminated whoever commits it.

All these dietary restrictions are complete nonsense. If there is a ‘god’ and I am positive there is not, is he so small minded as to care what people eat?
Mohammad got the pork thing from Judaism anyway. One owuld have thought that he would have gone the other route as he ahted the Jews so much but maybe he thought there was a chnce the Jews might convert to Islam. When I lived in a small Moose Limb country they did sell pork in supermarkets as there were many Chinese there, but the pork counter was completely separate from the other meats and staffed bty non Mosse Limbs of course.
somehistory says
It is not that God is “small minded.” Just the opposite. He had the health and welfare of His people in “Mind” when He told them not to eat certain things. Pork spoils easily and they didn’t have refrigeration. That is just one of the things one might want to consider when daring to criticize without knowledge.
Nelson Daniels says
Yes “some history”, there are many Jews in France, and they are all just fine with non jews eating pork. And celebrating Christmas. And not being circumsized.
And anything else they want to do a a free land like France. Please do not speculate otherwise, some nut-bar will take such idle speculation seriously and make trouble.
Enjoy those pork chops!
A jew
somehistory says
Nelson Daniels,
Thank you. I didn’t mean what I wrote to be “speculation.” Just making a few points in a non-I-know-it-all kind of way. as a comparison of how mozlums make a big deal out of nothing, while others who have a legitimate Faith, are not forcing it on the rest of us.
And thank you for the confirmation of my “thoughts” on the matter.
I have known some Jews in my lifetime, and I never thought it was any different. I even worked for some for a short time and they seemed to be the best of people.
I really do like bacon and ham.
Transmaster says
If you want to see true Islamophobia try banning bacon in the USA, The bacon fat would hit the fan.
tim gallagher says
Glad to hear that, Transmaster. It would be good to see the whining Muslims being told to shove their complaints up their arses. It should have happened ages ago in all our western countries.
mg says
Oh for crying out loud…. I’m jewish. Glatt kosher laws are quite strict…. for observant Jews!. They don’t apply to anyone else. For a non jew or a non observant jew to eat pork does not make them a Jew hater, or guilty of judeophobia. For muslims to peddle this hoohah is beyond absurd- it is imperative that the actual bigotry of muslims be demonstrated with this here logical pancake of theirs. Ergo, observant Jews won’t eat pork but they do understand that it can be a delicious meal for those who favor such meats. That’s the sanity of reasonableness. Islam is unreasonable and all too often unreasoning.
mgoldberg says
This scenario has come up before and there needs to be a huge outcry against muslims and Islam for their bigotry and hatred, as well as the lefts acquiescense. It is an abomination to smear others who love pork and who dine in it’s honor. My word, if there is anything to this thing call sanity we’d all better start using it, lest this inane excuse by islam and muslims continues to be taken seriousy. They should be scourged for this bigotry and told to mind their dammed business.

France: Restaurant owners accused of ‘Islamophobia’ because they like pork
…………………………………..
This is absurd. Note that observant Jews don’t act like this.
Jayell1 says
What the hell’s going on here? If these restauranteurs wish to serve pork in their own restaurants, as has always been legal in France and the rest of the civilised world, then it’s no business of anyone else except the owners and those who wish to go into those restaurants. And no one’s compelled to visit these, or any, restaurants. Why are people making excuses for themselves when they don’t have to? I have good reason to object to halal meat because its mode of production deeply offends my English sensibilities; likewise, anything to do with islam deeply offends my English sensibilities, so, since I’m typing this in London, UK, and I’ve every right to complain about anything that’s offensive on MY territory, and I therefore can make a fuss about anything islamic. Or do these muslims really think they can throw their weight around as they please anywhere they please? Time to teach them a lesson, I think.

No such thin as Islamophobia
Chandana Chjowdhury says
France likes diversity – doesn’t it?!
John says
There is an old saying, “when in Rome, do as the Romans.” Islam has as a fundamental concept to dominate the world. For those who do not understand, read the fundamental Islamic texts. There is a term in Islam, JIHAD which means a religious requirement to conquer the world. Early in Islamic history it was done by warfare: now it is being done in Europe by massive immigration. Note that most of these migrants do not work, but expect to be supported by the communities where they are.
They are economic migrants forcing their way into countries! The EU has not had the will to send them. back
Martin Kane says
Uk prisons are full with Pakis and wondered if these maggots get halah meat ?
OLD GUY says
Islamophobia anything the Muslim/islamic invaders don’t like or want to change. Nobody in France or anywhere else forces a muslim or anyone else to eat in a restaurant. If you don’t like it here or we don’t live up to your standards GO HOME where they don’t serve pork.
Hoi Polloi says
Three cheers for them and the Texas pig racers. We need more of that and restaurateurs like these. Up the ante.
