How stupid it is for the hospital staff in Port Hedland in WA to have an idea of giving up porks from its christmas menu. Last time I checked, Australia is not sharia-based state that has to comply with muslim preference not to eat porks; I respect their preference but don't take the porks out of the menu just because the Muslim's preference because the majority of Aussies love porks in their menu. Personally, I think it's the best meat for cuisines.

The above stupidity is still better though compared to the news in France when some stupid left-wingers and muslims protested a decision by a charity group to provide pork soup for the poors needing food in christmas time. This is really the ultimate stupidity I've ever seen so far in this year of 2005 (that almost ends).

I think if it is my own money then I will be free to do whatever I want to do with it as long as it's not a crime, so how come those stupid ignorant people can tell me what to do or not to do with my own money ? If I want to spend it by providing pork soup, so be it... people who want it get the benefits, people who don't like porks, tough luck and piss off. Afterall, I don't ask or force them to eat the soup if they don't like it.

I believe this incident confirms my view that left-wingers in their effort to show that they have better compassion / heart / fairness than the rest of us frequently lose their head / brain / ability to think straight.
