Not to offend all the Muslims on this board so shield your eyes.

Muslims in the Scottish district of Tayside are outraged by the appearance of a wide-eyed, 6-week-old puppy on postcards distributed by the local police force, according to the Daily Mail.

Postcards showing police dog-in-training Rebel, a German shepherd born in early December, are causing a furor among the region's Muslims who believe dogs are "ritually unclean," the Daily Mail reports.

The cute cards were meant to notify locals of a new telephone number for non-emergency phone calls but instead have become a flashpoint for a clash of cultures. Shopkeepers are refusing to display the offending ad and a Dundee city councilor is calling for an investigation.

"My concern was that it's not welcomed by all communities, with the dog on the cards," said Dundee councilor Mohammed Asif, according to the report.

The Tayside police force said the police puppy, the force's "newest recruit," was not intended to cause offense.

"His incredible worldwide popularity - he has attracted record visitor numbers to our Web site - led us to believe Rebel could play a starring role in the promotion of our non-emergency number," said a police spokesperson.

Must be a sect, Arabs raise dogs for hunting. It's pigs Muslims are really hyper about.

Cops?

I guess you nailed it. They get pissed off by the cops, which is completely natural and healthy. Poor Rebel can't help it.

Seeing this shite in light of the "Mohammad the Teddy Bear" riots a few months back, I'm thinking Muslims just hate cute things. And have absolutely no ability to pick their battles. They seem to go into full-on outrage mode over every little thing.

I want to publish a cartoon about the Teddy and the Puppy. I'll take all the pressure off of Salman Rushdie.
