LAWTON, Okla. – Authorities are investigating after the carcass of a wild hog was dumped in the parking lot of an Islamic center in Oklahoma.

Lawton Police spokesman Sgt. Tim Jenkins says security cameras showed a person dropping the carcass at about 2 a.m. Wednesday at the Islamic Center of Lawton, about 75 miles southwest of Oklahoma City. The Lawton Constitution reports (http://bit.ly/2gi4YEF ) that a police sergeant spotted the bloody carcass Wednesday morning and contacted the city's animal control division, which removed the hog.

The Quran, the holy book of Islam, prohibits Muslims from eating pork, and pigs have been used to taunt or offend Muslims.

Hassan Ahmed, the director of the center, says he's not particularly concerned about finding the culprit and instead wants to educate the community about Islam.

3. This is a carryover from Judaism

I don't get why people pick on this one dietary restriction. Religious Jews (I'm more of an atheistic Jew) don't eat pork either, and plenty of other stuff.

4. Dumping a case of whiskey would have been too painful for them. (nt)

19. The pork prohibition is the only thing they actually know about Islam

Well, that and Muhammad's child bride...

5. Trump's America

where anybody that is against him will be threatened - or worse.

6. crazy hog slaughterers are desensitized to armed violent animal abuse & like FBI says, many move on

& escalate to harming people.

7. Another coward--who does his dirty work in the dead of night.

8. it speaks to the strength and integrity of the Lawton Muslim community

that Ahmed sees an opportunity for education here. He is fighting ignorance with knowledge, patience and compassion. Much respect to him.

9. Donnie Tic Tacs

has had the balls to say that he hasn't divided the country or brought the worse aspect of people.

Really?

[dhill926]

10. yet another coward...

show your face ya piece of shit...

11. It's from Leviticus

The same book of the Bible that forbids eating pork (Leviticus 11:verse7), is the one that those folks always quote about gay sex (Leviticus 18:23 and 20:13). Education is really needed!

12. Better find the people who did this so that we can "reach out" to them.

Can't we try harder to understand their problems?

[heaven05]

13. and the hate keeps growing

with NO disavowal from, trumpfuhrer, bannon, ryan, mcconnell. Wonder why??????

[Sunlei]

15. Repubs never disavow. Remember their 'fans' screaming hate at buses of refugees & outside a mosque?

Hate grows over the years like cancer.

[heaven05]

21. yep

[Runningdawg]

16. Nothing from OK's political or religious leaders either

[heaven05]

20. didn't expect it

people are going to fight back sooner or later. One will get caught perpetrating a hate crime like this, and then it will be on.

17. I'm thinking this will backfire on the perps.

I've spent a lot of time in Oklahoma and the people there are generally very decent and friendly. I just can't imagine that the majority goes around worrying about Muslims and I think they also have some sense of decency. I expect you will see a lot of clergy speaking out against religious intolerance.

[BigDemVoter]

18. Fucking ASSHOLES.

This sounds like an Oklahoma version of Kristallnacht. . .

The same folks who wasted state taxpayer money paying for legislation to "ban Sharia Law." I guess those stupid rubes never heard of the separation of Church and state?
