Anti-minaret coalition is raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacist

Anyone who opposes the liberal multicultural utopia is a raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacist. Never mind that islam is not a race, but the poster itself isn't very offensive unless you're a liberal. Straight Times

GENEVA - SWITZERLAND'S Commission Against Racism said Wednesday that an anti-minaret poster campaign by a far-right party defamed the country's Muslim minority and could threaten public peace.

'The commission believes that this could threaten social cohesion and public peace,' the government commission said in a statement.

The Swiss People's Party has unveiled a campaign poster depicting a woman wearing a burka against a background of a Swiss flag upon which several minarets ressembling missiles were erected. It is aimed at getting the population to vote for a ban on minarets in Switzerland in a referendum on the issue in November.

The commission said it found that the posters 'feed prejudices, are over-simplistic and presents Islam overall in an unfavourable manner.' They 'suggest that the Muslim minority living in Switzerland represents a danger' and send the message that the Muslim population is seeking to dominate the Swiss people, oppress women and disregard fundamental rights, it noted.
