Idaho Co. Creates Bullets Laced with Pork Because They Believe it Will Keep Muslims Out of Heaven



An Idaho-base company known as South Fork Industries has created a new line of pork-laced bullets that they hope will be used to fight back against Islamic terrorists. The bullets, which are called Jihawg Ammo, were created so that they can be used as a "defensive deterrent to those who violently act in the name of Islam."

South Fork took traditional ammo and coated the bullets in a pork-infused paint. Those who are shot with the bullets would then be "unclean". The Islamic religion forbids Muslims from coming into contact with pig meat. The bullets creators believe that being shot with a pork-laced bullet with keep Muslims out of heaven.

The company said in a press release:

"With Jihawg Ammo, you don't just kill an Islamist terrorist, you also send him to hell.That should give would-be martyrs something to think about before they launch an attack. If it ever becomes necessary to defend yourself and those around you our ammo works on two levels."

put up barricades and stationed National Guard? troops in front of the capital, defending against invaders or truck bombs or...something.

It was embarrassing. And they stayed for a long time.

Never mind that there are maybe four Muslims in all of Idaho and that nowhere in the country will you be able to use these with their intended effect short of flat out murdering people, the rednecks will buy these up in droves. It's all about the sales and I bet they charge half again what regular bullets cost.

I really need to figure out a way to tap into this market.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causes_of_the_Indian_Rebellion_of_1857

..."The sepoys, a generic term used for native Indian soldiers of the Bengal Army, had their own list of grievances against the Company Raj, mainly caused by the ethnic gulf between the British officers and their Indian troops. The British had issued new gunpowder cartridges that were widely believed to be greased with cow or pig fat, which insulted both Hindus and Muslims.[1] Other than Indian units of the British East India Company's army, much of the resistance came from the old aristocracy, who were seeing their power steadily eroded under the British."...

While quite clearly these bullets and their maker are offensive, and wrong (as someone pointed out upthread), then again, the Jihadists aren't all that bright to begin with. Who knows? Maybe this will scare some of them straight? Or force them to avoid battle with 'infidels'? The Jihadists will believe anything their mullahs tell them.

When they stole this rejected invention from the Israelis, they knew it was a crock of crap. But they know a lot of bubbas will pay oodles for it, believing it's Muslim kryptonite. Sad, really.

If you shop around, you can find .223 for .50 a shot or so. The days of cheap ammo are over.

I'm not a Muslim, but I know from a religion in America course I took years ago in college that the Quran says if you die fighting in a 'holy war' in the name of Islam that you automatically go to heaven. Since terrorists like Bin Laden believe they are fighting in a holy war, I doubt 'pork bullets' will do anymore then piss them off even more against us, and they certainly won't scare terrorists into not committing terrorist attacks, since they believe if they die in that war they go to heaven anyway.

But I'm sure a bunch of anti-Muslim idiots will waste millions of dollars on such stupid bullets.
