Its the most pathetic thing i have heard all year! why take a pig out because its seen as not clean but leave the sty and the pig noise?! fair enough people in certain religions may find it offensive but why a buy a farm for your child if that's how you feel! i still love going to farm parks and personally the best bit for me is the pigs! x

 

[Morgenstern]

oh dont get me started. thats like the christans over here banning harry potter because it mentions witchcraft. well what the hell do you want your kids to read? boring books that dont keep their interest? I swear people need to really open their eyes. Its not about making every religion happy. There is going to be something that they complain about. they always have something to complain about whether it really matters or not is another story.

You cant ban everything just because 1 person or 1 religion finds it offensive.

[Arlandria]

Ive never heard utter rubbish! Thats just bloody silly!

 

[NuKe]

oh. my. god. how ridiculous.

 

[dani_tinks]

This world has actually gone mad. How on earth is it offence... there are pigs on farms... that is life.

 

[sparkle_1979]

what on earth is this country coming to when a company has to take a pig from a child's toy in case it offends..."sigh"

 

[AppleBlossom]

LOL. Pigs live on farms. Deal with it!

 

[kiwimama]

How absolutely bizarre! Surely if someone didn't like the fact that pig came in their childrens farm toy, they could either choose not to buy it or throw the pig away - why ruin it for anyone else buying the toy!? It's amazing what the world is coming to...

 

[pinkish_angel]

It is bizarre. Infact the more I think about it, surely its jus someone trying to cause trouble. Just to get an uproar from people. If it was that much of a problem to muslims they would make a specific farm minus the 'offensive' animals for those that chose to buy it that way, not take away the pig for everyone. Lets face it, theres no way we can remove pigs from our every day living. Whats next, take bacon/ham etc off our shelves altogether so NO-ONE can eat it, jus cuz its offensive for the shoppers that dont eat it. Ban peppa pig?! Its crazy.

OMG

 

[FierceAngel]

i dunno if i should laugh or cry honestly!

what is more absurd and unfortunate is that the story is actually fueling the ridiculous anti-muslim rubbish that is going on in the world. Normal healthy people would either not buy something that was not suitable for them (for whatever reasons) or throw the offending piece of plastic away and give the rest to the child. To be 'offended' by a plastic pig has nothing to do with being muslim, it's just stupid.

 

[louandivy]

okay

1. they put the pig back into the toy farm
2. HOW did the daily mail manage to worm 'Muslims' into the headline? The article mentions nothing about a Muslim complaining. Just another stupid non-story to fuel up racial tension. God I hate tabloids.

 

[Rhi_Rhi1]

god sakes lol ... and now everyone will likely blame the muslims for it ... when they most likely never even complained lol ... PC mad this country is lol!

 

[Char&Bump-x]

Rediculous. You've got to wander what the world is coming to if you cant sell a tiny plastic pig for fear of offending someone. Mad.
