Craig Baker has threatened to race pigs on the edge of his property on Fridays, the Muslim holy day, in response to a plan to build a mosque near his property...
Though he now concedes the group probably is not after his land, Baker said he is obligated to go through with the pig races, probably within the next few weeks, because "I would be like a total idiot if I didn't. I'd be the laughingstock now because I've gone too far."

Well, at least he has realised the last statement in time. However, this guy doesn´t understand neither islam nor the property law. If they want to build a mosque in his property, first they have to buy it. And don´t think that just because you make pigs run they will not build the mosque. The Koran says that only eating them or, in more strict interpretations, touching them is a sin. If they have previously run or they just exist is not their problem.
Ermir -- Indeed, he is already a laughingstock.
It's never to late to stop acting like a jackass. Remember the old adage, "When you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is to stop digging."
Yes, it's racist asshattery and all, and he really is an utter tool... but I have to admit, I would watch the pig races.
You know, I thought one of the good things about being an atheist is to stand tall and proud and successful, being kind and moral and show that these things are not dependant on a fictitious entity, nor does the aforementioned fictitious entity smite those that snub him as people thralled under his imagined reign of terror like to think.
Craig likes to "show up" "flaws" in other religions by being a barbaric, subhuman asswipe. Good luck swaying public opinion there buddy-Jim!
MK: I suggest the "Stay the Course" award for this one.
That's great. Seconded.
Ole craig sounds like a guy who has all of his money on a Vegas craps table and shrugs his shoulders, "Oh well, might as well let it ride!"
Hey, Baker, newsflash. Everyone, except christian fundies and the most profound idiots, laugh at you. Not only because you're a complete idiot and seem to have no fucking clue about islam, but also because you seem to think that you're doing the right thing in a country with freedom of religion.
You, the KKK, the Westboro Baptist Church, and any other racists, fundies, and bigots are a laughingstock. Or rather, you make a laughingstock out of the human race by your sheer existence.
Here's a plan. Cancel the race, then you can all keep to yourselves.
They don't bother you, you don't bother them. You never even have to talk to each other. Simple as that.

You're a laughingstock now, so you have nothing to lose.

Well just last year 39% of those surveyed in a Gallup poll said they would support Muslims being forced to carry special ID. Now where has something like that been done before, mmm?
Well, OK then - there's a Catholic family that lives next door to me and on Fridays, if they won't move away, I'm going out in my yard and eat some MEAT! Right in front of God and everybody. Hah! That oughta show 'em - buncha cat lickers anyway. Hmph.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
