SIGN IN A STORE WINDOW

 

                'WE WOULD RATHER DO BUSINESS WITH   1,000 AL-QAIDA TERRORISTS

                THAN WITH ONE SINGLE BRITISH SOLDIER! 

                This sign  was prominently displayed in the window of a business in Campbeltown Scotland

                and you are probably outraged at the thought  of such an inflammatory statement,,

 

                However, we are a society which holds Freedom of Speech as perhaps our greatest liberty.         

                And after all, it is only a sign.

                                 You may ask

  "what kind of business would dare post such a sign  ?"

               

 

 

 

                      Answer: A Funeral Home

 

 

       (Who said morticians had no sense of humour!!)

                                You gotta love it

                              God Bless Scotland
