Thread Name: BS: School Gym forced to shut by Muslims UK
Subject: RE: BS: School Gym forced to shut by Muslims UK
Teribus says:Boy, I don't think you could get away with saying that in the United States. That's a very different perspective from what we have here in the U.S., especially in private schools.

I do think the use of the term "Muslim" in the thread title, puts an unnecessary "spin" on the story. What if you titled it: "Gym in Private Girls' School Closed to Boys"? In many places in the world, that wouldn't even be news. People would yawn and say, "So what?" or "Well, DUH!"
