Today’s bearded savagery tales focus on the chilling of free speech and freedom which always seems to occur when Bearded Savages are allowed anywhere near the levers of power, or where well meaning useful idiots (such as this one, this one and this one) allow bearded savagery to dictate terms to an organisation.
Our first port of call is Egypt where the euphoria and hope of the Arab Spring is being lost in fog of authoritarian bearded savagery.
Woe to you if you are a women as bearded savagery will treat you as the property of a man, but if you are a woman eating an ice lolly then the bearded savages will attack you with all the ferocity of a rabid dog.
The Bikyamasr news website brings us the story of schoolgirls harassed for…..eating ice lollies.
The site said:
“CAIRO: Two bearded ultra-conservative men in Egypt attacked four elementary schoolgirls walking down a street eating ice popsicles. The men knocked the popsicles from the girls hands and began yelling at them.
They told them to stop eating the popsicles and go home, Bikyamasr.com witnessed. The girls, shocked at what was happening, stood frozen in their movement.
The two men continued their yelling, telling them to be “modest.” The girls began to cry.”
Bikyamasr said that the assault stopped when nearby men intervened.
“A group of men across the street watching the incident were quick to enter the fray, pushing the two men away and kicking them as a yelling match ensued.
One of the men, protecting the girls, continued to shove the two men until they were heading in the opposite direction.”
The website continued:
“The incident on Thursday highlights the growing influence Salafists, or Islamic puritans, are attempting to have on the streets.
Many women have reported incidents of conservatives in Egypt attempting to force their will on them across the country, attacking them for their “immodesty.””
So much for the hope of a democratic and modern Egypt, these things seem to have gone down the Islamic toilet like all the other hopes for freedom in that country.
Sadly our second stop on our Bearded Savage tour shows us just how far Bearded Savagery has infiltrated our own educational establishment here in the UK. In Reading, Berkshire, the student Atheist Society was banned from the universities Freshers Fair because they had a pineapple on their stall which they called ‘Mohammed’.
Proving that Islamofascism doesn’t always work alone but has ‘helpers’ we find that the Student Union appeared quite happy to do the Bearded Savages work for them, playing the enthusiastic Quislings for Islam by telling the Atheist Society to remove the offending pineapple.
The centre-left blog Harry’s Place reports on this, and other similar incidents of universities shutting down free speech in order to not offend the whining Bearded Savages,
Harry’s Place said:
“Yesterday, as a new academic year begins, a similar attack on student’s freedom of expression took place at the University of Reading Freshers’ Fayre.
Students from the university Atheist, Humanist, and Secularist Society (RAHS) were forced to leave the Fayre after they included a pineapple labelled‘Mohammed’ on their stall.
Staff from the Reading University Student Union (RUSU), as well as a number of Muslim students objected to this and asked the society to remove it, with a statement from the atheist society stating that they were told “Either the pineapple goes, or you do”.
Considering that the pineapple was labelled in this way “to celebrate the fact that we live in a country in which free speech is protected, and where it is lawful to call a pineapple by whatever name one chooses” it is deeply concerning thatRUSU have acted in this way.”
The HP article by the campaigning organisation Students Rights continued:
“However, students do not have the right to impose their religious sensibilities on others, and they must accept that they may be offended by those who do not share their convictions.
Whilst this action by the RAHS may have been provocative, they should have every right to do it and not be censored. Instead of closing down debate RUSU should be encouraging students to interact with one another rather than pandering to the hurt feelings of the devout.”
Sod the feelings of the Bearded Savages. This is OUR nation and if they don’t like it they are free to leave.
It wasn’t even as if the Pineapple Mohammed was placed on the Atheist stall for the purpose of general mischief making, the Pineapple Mo was there to illustrate the point “Should we respect religion?”
This is an appalling and chilling shut down of free speech in an educational environment where it has always been accepted a person will be exposed to a variety of political, religious and other views. This shows us that Bearded Savagery is a danger where ever it sets up shop.
In protest at these students being forbidden by a bunch of useful idiots to call a pineapple Mohammed I’m going to start calling all faeces by the name, Mohammed. This will cause endless fun when I say things like: ‘I’m just going to nip into this pub to use their loo as I’m desperate for a Mohammed’ or ‘oh look, the dogs done a Mohammed on the patio again’ Hmmm! That could catch on.
Support free speech, call the products that emerge from the anal sphincter, Mohammed, there will never be a more appropriate name, you know it makes sense.
Come to think of it, a steaming pile of faeces is probably more morally sound than the actual prophet Mohammed himself, after all how many piles of ordure have been accused of child rape, murder, theft, dishonesty or started a genocidal death cult?

Note to my Islamic readers. Islam has so often proved itself unworthy of being referred to as a ‘culture’, therefore I try to refer to Islam by a much more descriptive term that sums it up in two words and the words are ‘bearded savagery’.
