Have a gander at Jihawg Ammo, a company dedicated to our “freedom from Sharia and radical Islam”…by manufacturing pork-infused bullets. Supposedly to strike fear into the hearts of radical Muslims that should they be shot by these bullets they will be denied entry into Heaven because they will be “unclean”, and thus denied their 72 virgins…as if Muslims are vampires and this ammo is garlic…or something…
:eek:
You can’t make this shit up. Be sure to visit the apparel portion of their website too!
You know, this is just so twisted and bizarre that I can’t help but laugh at it. But it sure says something about the mindset of some people in America.
I am going to need to ignorance fought here. Is there any basis to the belief that shooting a muslim with a pork infused bullet would somehow undo their righteousness before God?
No, much like in Judaism and Christianity, if someone else forces it upon a person, the pollution is the perpetrators’s sin not the victim’s sin. That said this is one of the things I love about America: it’s hard to go broke underestimating so many people’s intelligence.

Today’s popular notion is the concept that a pig is to a Muslim as a crucifix is to a vampire; simply arm yourself with a porker, and you can use it to render even the most fanatical terrorist helpless, sending him cowering in fear lest he come into contact with anything porcine.
Such notions reduce an extremely widespread and diverse religion and the people who follow it to a monolithic entity with a single set of beliefs and rules to which everyone adheres. Islam has a variety of sects and sub-sects just as Christianity has a multiplicity of denominations; assuming that all “Muslims” believe and behave identically is like assuming that all Catholics and Baptists believe and behave identically because both of the latter groups are “Christians.” In one sense, messages such as the ones quoted above could be considered as silly as Muslims’ proclaiming that a good way to throw the USA into disarray would be to “bomb” America with juicy steaks on Fridays, because “Americans are Christians,” and “everyone knows Christians who eat meat on Fridays go to Hell.” Never mind that not all Americans are Christians, that not all Christians are Catholics, that not all Catholics believe in exactly the same things, that not all Catholics are equally religious or faithful, and that even the “rules” of Catholicism have changed over time.
Also implicit in this type of reasoning is the notion that “terrorist,” “Muslim terrorist,” “fanatical Muslim” and “devout Muslim” are all synonymous. They aren’t; just as not all Muslims are terrorists, not all terrorists are Muslims; one need not be devout to be fanatical, and not all religious fanatics are devout. Religion can be just as much about politics and power as it is about faith, and counter-religious behavior is often justified or sanctioned in the service of a “greater cause.” The terrorists who hijacked American Airlines Flight 11 were reportedly seen partaking of alcohol and engaging the services of naked lap dancers, activities which should have been anathema to true Muslims. Perhaps they were Muslims in name only, maybe they weren’t all that devout, or possibly they rationalized that Allah would overlook their transgressions with booze and women since they were about to die in the service of Islam. Whatever the case, concerns about the afterlife probably wouldn’t have dissuaded the hijackers from their plans to crash Flight 11 into the World Trade Center had a few pigs turned up on board the plane. If Allah was a concern, well, the hijackers could choose to believe that Allah would understand and make allowances for true warriors of the faith; after all, the Koran teaches against suicide in the first place.
Yeah, but since the jihadists will simply surrender rather than risk being shot with this, a pound of pattern pending porcine protection will last you a lot longer the Wally World wonders.
Yup.
See, what you do is, you get you some bacon and some rubber bands, and you just rubber band a slice of bacon the end of the barrel of your gun, and when you fire the bullet passes through the bacon and gets coated in porky goodness, leaving all the terrorists you blasted dead and on the wrong side of Allah. BOOM take that TERRORISTS! Welcome to AMURICA!
Hardly. Anyone who buys these bullets is unlikely to use them against any Muslims except possibly some random guy whose “crime” is having an “Muslim sounding” name.
Excellent idea! The bacon wrapped barrel would be a warning! You wouldn’t even have to shoot them, they’d run away in terror!
When you arrived safely at home, you could makethese.
