PC Police on high alert in England

Over in England, London to be exact, the PC police are working overtime. A competition to recognize the top electronic children’s books was thrown into controversy over a adaptation of the classic book “The Three Little Pigs”; except the genius’ behind the adaptation made the pigs “cowboy builders”. That is not the controversy believe it or not…although a stupid premise, we’re going to chalk up that dim-witted idea to poetic license.

The controversy was why the book on CD was disqualified. According to the story:

“The idea of taking a traditional tale and retelling a story is fine, but it should not alienate parts of the workforce. Judges would not recommend this product to the Muslim community in particular.”

Not only did they feel the book offended Muslims…they felt that builders would be offended as well since all the structures the “builders” built kept being torn down in the book.

This reminds me of the time when I was offended by British teeth and the Brits were ordered not to smile in front of me in hopes that I wouldn’t get offended and start a mad riot where I torched a bunch of cars and looted stores for no apparent reason and maybe kill a few people here and there. Oh yeah…that didn't happen. And for the most part Brits have nice teeth...except this guy, and I am not entirely positive he is a Brit:

Back to my original rant, when was the last time a book that might offend Jewish people was disqualified from a competition? I remember “The Da Vinci Code” won multitudes of awards even though many Catholics were offended. Why is it that only when Muslims might be offended are things banned?
