Muslims ticked at Pope.

Blah Blah Blah. And in the story is the following sentence:

"Islam forbids drinking alcohol and requires non-Muslims to pay a head tax to safeguard their lives if conquered by Muslims. They are exempt if they convert to Islam"

Well guess what? I aint payin' no head tax.

What if conversion to Islam came with free fried chicken, a lifetime supply of tacos, and a guarantee that Hillary Clinton would never get into the Oval Office?

I bet that promise is how they get people to sign up for the Republican Party too.

Thank you and praise Cassius Clay.

WARNING:

Don't do it!

First it's a "head tax," and next thing you know you're slammed with "arms, legs, hands and feet taxes." Those Republicans are sneaky that way.

Unless you're a REALLY RICH Republican-then you get to pay NO taxes.

Forget the body part tax; I'm concerned about the "no alcohol" clause.

If I want to pay $7 for a glass of wine . . . I should be left alone in my insanity, dammit!

Am I the only person who, when confronted with the phrase "head tax", immediately thought it meant --

Oh, never mind.

Well, it's like the saying goes: God made Lamont and Eve, not Lamont and Steve...

Works for me -- I just saved $10.00.

Cake said...

Wow, $10. Pretty cheap.

And I don't know if I just insulted Steve or Lamont...
