A none funny joke...

MARK YOUR CALENDAR FOR NEXT SATURDAY.
As you may already know, it is a sin for a Muslim male to see any woman other than his wife naked, and that he must commit suicide if he does. So next Saturday at 4 pm. eastern time all American women are asked to walk out of their house completely naked to help weed out any neighborhood terrorists. Circling your block for one hour is recommended for this anti-terrorist effort all men are to position themselves in lawn chairs in front of their house to prove they are not Muslims, and to demonstrate they think it's okay to see nude women other than their wife and to show support for all American women. Since Islam also does not approve of alcohol, a cold 6-pack at your side is further proof of your anti-Muslim sentiment. The American government appreciates your efforts to root out terrorists and applauds your participation in this anti-terrorist activity God bless America. It is your patriotic duty to pass this on.

~~~I know this was meant to be a joke. I realize this, but in light of the events going on around us, I do not find humor in this. Such jokes continue the fear and hatred of a culture we do not understand fully. It adds to the folly views of others, and the continue stupidity of our culture here. I find this to be offensive, for I do not doubt some will do such things, and take it as truth, or find truth in it. It is racial profiling, and even jokes have turned our society in to an ill formed one. I find this to be completely offensive, and I want to state my opinion on it, I think others should do as they feel is right, so don't just sit back and take e-mails of this nature to pass you by. Instead, in form those that send such things your opinion, if you feel such a thing is offensive. Jokes of this nature are not needed in such times as we are in.
