Getting Muslims to sign up for Family Fun Day: No Day at the Park

[Dâriûsh]

Organizers had hoped to fill a niche for Britain's 1.7 million Muslims, some of whom may be uncomfortable with mainstream entertainment.

Duh. And those few are generally uncomfortable with any form of entertainment. There really is no 'fun' in fundamentalist.

As the entire event was defended as a way to 'defuse' Muslim rage in Britain and make them feel more a part of British society... what does this say?

Maybe they all had a nice cup of tea instead? Feeling really angry (well, all right, mildly annoyed) and then having a cup of tea and calming down would be a sign of complete integration into the British way of life. Which is more than can be said for rollercoasters.

I went to Muslim fun Day at six flags over texas and got a rash from this chic who insisisted on rubbing my lovehandles and yelling "Uber Mensch" while we went on the Log Ride. I also went to christian day but all those triflin hoes had long sleeves on, which makes me paranoid about hairy pits, so I just stayed in the arcade and pwnt little kids on Mortal Combat.

Though the "mental" bit is appropriate .

So true, be they Christian, Muslim or Jewish.

You know I really can't believe the founders of the "Big Three" were really that much of a killjoy.
