Sneakers Bistro In Vermont Caves To One Muslim Woman Who Is Offended By The WORD Bacon. FOR REAL.
Remember when I posted about Eitan Chitayat's latest column, about how important it is to stay angry, stay vigilant and above all else, be aware of the destruction of the American way of life, our melting pot, by radical people who wish us evil?
Yeah. Here's an example of Americans doing the exact opposite.
According to that sourcelink, owners of Sneakers Bistro in Winooski Circle, Vermont, did a little gardening on some city flower beds. The city has a program in place ("Operation Bloom") which allows business owners to do a little landscaping and earn the right to advertise/post signs on the plot of land they landscape. It's kinda awesome, really. So Sneakers gardened, and chose to display a sign which read, "Yield for Sneakers Bacon."
No big deal, right? I mean, bacon exists (thankfully). A lot of people eat it. I'm guessing it's a popular item at Sneakers Bistro. But because some Muslim chick on an internet forum wrote that the sign was "insensitive" to people who don't consume pork, and that AS a Muslim, she's offended by the sign, Sneakers took it down. They completely caved.
The owners told a local news station that they PROACTIVELY reached out to the Muslim chick to tell her that they'd be removing the sign, that they regretted the harm CAUSED by the sign, and that they never wanted to cause stress or bad feelings.
