How do you know it was canceled due to offending Muslims? They were just one of many groups. They didn't just spring up in 2015.
I remember Christians trying to get it cancelled decades ago and many have protested since then. It wasn't until Muslims complained that anything was changed.
Islam is being taught in some schools and is covered to a far greater extent than any other religion. Seriously, if Muslims were asked to recite the bible on homework or wear a cross for a day to show tolerance for the slaughtered Christians in Muslim countries, how would that go over?
We have students reciting Muslim prayers, quoting the verse that is used for conversion and learning the tenets. It's all presented in a positive light, unlike Christianity since they dwell on the centuries-old crusades. How much is taught regarding Islamic terrorists? While terrorism is discussed, they are dropping the part about the religion of most terrorists.
There is no question that political correctness is at work here. Schools are banning American flags on vehicles, t-shirts and even sent some students home for wearing jackets with the U.S. Air Force logo. Some home associations have banned people from flying American flags on their homes. The reason is always that it's offensive. Just don't say anything about being offended by looking at young men's underwear when they wear saggy pants or you're called intolerant. Seems that Americans in general are supposed to be tolerant of everyone who hates us, but we can't expect tolerance in return. Bacon ads have come down, bacon is no longer served in prisons, Muslims who take jobs are given waivers for doing parts of their jobs that offend them and Islam is pushed as the peaceful religion in schools with no regard to how it might offend other religions.
Schools have cancelled days that were meant to pay tribute to America. Again, they say it's offensive to those students who don't consider themselves American. Yet, they are in American schools and taking advantage of all the country has to offer, but still get offended by our symbol.
Muslims have even chosen to attend Catholic schools just so they can bitch about the crosses and other holy symbols. They want prayer rooms provided no matter what school they choose. What mosque has added special rooms for Christians or Jews?
In most cases, we bow to the illegal aliens, Muslims or other radical groups that make the most noise.
Face it, you aren't allowed to be offended unless you're an illegal alien, Muslim or minority. Anyone else who takes issue with the smallest thing regarding those groups is called names and told to behave. If you are a Muslim baker, you will not be charged for discrimination if you refuse to bake for a gay couple. If you listen to the left, you won't find criticism of Muslims anywhere no matter how they behave. I don't hear criticism of their horrific treatment of women, which means the left isn't as concerned about women's rights as they claim.
The liberal media looks the other way when it comes to illegal aliens committing horrible crimes. As with the Muslims, they immediately praise the groups and order us to ignore the few. Only time that isn't the rule is when it's southerners, Republicans or Christians. Christians are still expected to answer for the crusades that happened centuries ago, but no Muslim is even asked their opinion on 9/11.
Just tired of the massive effort on the left to shove things down our throats as they fail to treat everyone equal.
