Support Denmark, buy Dansk products now!
The government of Denmark has taken a stand for free speech and against appeasement of fundamentalist Muslims. They have not apologized for allowing free speech in regards to some "offensive" cartoons of Mohammed. Kudos for having a backbone unlike some European newspaper editors.
The fundamentalist government of Iran, as well as hardline Islamic groups, are boycotting Danish goods as a result of this. We can do a small part to offset this by ordering Dansk products now. Browse this list of Dansk exhaust products offered here on Pelican: http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/ksearch/PEL_search.cgi?command=DWsearch&please_wait=N&more_parts=82&description=Dansk Pelican can also obtain the full range of Dansk body restoration panels seen here in this .pdf, but unfortunately *ahem* these still haven't shown up in Pelican's online catalog: http://jpgroup.anet.dk/pdffiles/cabroeihrnmjjei31q4enzyn.pdf If you've been considering buying a Dansk product, now is the time to buy to show our support. |

I have been eating those butter cookies like a maniac. If they will make stainless steel heat exchangers for my 2 liter 914, I will buy them. Need paint more than anything on that one though

I expect that it would be easier to align the behaviour of those that would go around wacking beehives with broomsticks (as a gesture supposedly in evidence of their intellectual freedom) with the term "moron mob"; not to mention the more apparently ready link between that term and the treatment of fellow local, national and/or international citizens with disrespect and disdain for no particular reason other than they have the freedom and the ability to do so. Sad planet in so many respects. Sad the harm that gets done, but particularly sad the harm that gets done in the irrelevant application of a "higher ideal".

So you're in favor of appeasement and "letting sleeping dogs lie".
One problem with that. Eventually the dogs wake up anyway. |

I'd love to, but spring break is coming up. Much skiing to be done, and the bank account can't handle both...
Maybe in the summer. I'm all for the cause though. |

Sorry, Purry

If you think it eloquent or just to support either party in such matters, than such right is surely available as much to you as it is to the farting or pegging children. Personally, I think that they should both be spanked and sent to bed without supper. |

So its OK for the Muslim press to print really, really offensive cartoons about Isreal and the west, but not OK for others to do the same? The crap about being an insult to print any image of the Prophet Mohammed is a nothing but crap. They have 1,000 year old paints of Mohammed! By the way, if no one can print an image of Mohammed, and never has, how do we know what he looks like, and that its really him? Funny thing, when Westerners feel insulted, they write letters to the editor, have peaceful protests, they don't plant roadside bombs to kill women and children or cut peoples heads off while filming it. You insult my Canadian parents heritage. The Mullahs themselves are fabricating or at least distributing fabricated "insulting" cartoons themselves to stir up their dirty unwashed masses. I say its time for Mohammed toilet paper. Funny thing, in Iran/Iraq if a Western women walks down the street without covering her face, perfect strangers feel its their duty to come up to that women and scream in her face about what kind of women she is and that she must cover her face. In Texas, if someone came up to a women they didn't know and did that it would be worth a serious ass wooping or a "He need killin" defense from the husband/boyfriend.

Had Danish butter at b-fast this morning and am on Ebay looking for Bang & Olufsen things to buy right now!
Totally agree and even after bending over and apologising the muslims are still burning and protesting. Screw them and lets get the war started. Just let me get out of this moslem country first and back home!  JoeA

Good work, Joe!
Just donŽt start waving around Danish flags just yet.. If you do, better have the matches ready. - Hey ! I was just about to burn it! Viva Mohammad !

it won't hurt to say "hello" either, it is valentine's after all. |
