Three Little Pigs Changed to Three Little Puppies

[las47032]

Little Red Riding Hood ... Hansel and Gretel ... the Three Little Puppies?

That's what one British school renamed the traditional Three Little Pigs story for a school play, so as not to offend Muslims in the community, London's Daily Mail reported.

Organizers of the children's musical theater performance changed the lyrics' character's names in a move some — including Muslims — are saying went too far.

"The vast majority of Muslims have no problem whatsoever with the Three Little Pigs. It's always been the traditional way of telling the story and I don't see why that should be changed," Shaykh Ibrahim Mogra from the Muslim Council of Britain told the Daily Mail, saying the name change was "bizarre."

Gill Goodswen, head teacher of Stile Common Junior School, defending the move.

She said: "We have to be sensitive if we want to be multicultural. It was felt it would be more responsible not to use the three little pigs."

Stupid and even the people they changed it for had no problem with the original.

She said: "We have to be sensitive if we want to be multicultural. It was felt it would be more responsible not to use the three little pigs."

Sensitivity is one thing - stupidity is something else and this was stupid.

My wife has actually done some supply teaching at Style Common and this sort of thing is seen by the majority of the staff as the usual crock of PC b*llsh*t. What does worry me is the offence it might cause to those from the Far East who do eat puppies, this glorification of certain nations desire to eat cute furry animals is disgusting.

Dear God, must we continue catering to Islam until they eat us up?

Anyway, for the radicals, puppies are used in training small children to become terrorists. They teach them to take small puppies and kill them.

And yes, some cultures eat dog. I'm not sure, but I doubt that wolves would eat them - they're the same family, after all.
