No Pooh for you!

Well, apparently Winnie the Pooh and Piglet are now banned from a benefits department at Dudley Council, West Midlands. What next? Can we get computers banned fomr offices since the Amish are offended? How about banning men from my workplace since I can claim that my feminist sentiments are offended by their mere presence? Sheesh, people - whatever happened to live and let live?

Funny is this particular line from the story -
Councillor Mahbubur Rahman, a practising Muslim, backed the ban. He said: “I’’s a tolerance of people’s beliefs.”
From where I sit, it looks like a ban is as bad as intolerance gets than anything else.

Should sue Noah. He should have left the pig family out.
