New Invention Uses Pig's Blood to Stop Suicide Bombers... Muslims Are "Offended"

New Invention Uses Pig's Blood to Stop Suicide Bombers... Muslims Are "Offended"
"Franklin R. Lacy might be to stopping suicide bombings what Jonas Salk was to ending polio and the Wright brothers were to flight. 
You might think that moderate Muslims who decry such violence would be elated.
Instead, Muslims are attacking Lacy, because apparently the indignity of a suicide bomber being covered in pig blood is too much for them.
Lacy is a Tampa inventor who had traveled extensively in the Middle East and had knew how strongly Muslims felt about pig blood.
Having a eureka moment, Lacy created a “system for protecting against terrorist and illegal invasion” that would place a device clearly marked as containing pig blood in an area where a suicide bomber might be tempted to detonate a device.
”It will keep suicide bombers from blowing themselves up near the container of pig blood because they believe that they would be guaranteed not to go to heaven,” Lacy said.
...Fiyaz Mughal, director of Faith Matters, said that the invention had “been created by someone who seeks to humiliate specific faiths.”
“The patent is particularly troubling if used against Jews or Muslims, because it would be deeply offensive and insulting to their faith and beliefs,” the director of the interfaith organization said (H/T Right Wing News).
...If one doesn’t want to enter into an establishment that has such devices deployed, one doesn’t have to. 
However, let’s not decry it because Muslims or Jews might be “offended” by it.
And, after all, if it stops the violence it’s meant to stop, shouldn’t Muslims be happy?"
