It's fortunate indeed that we have agents keeping their eyes open for items of interest. Somehow both Walt and Len would otherwise miss things that have been read and seen by millions...the world excluding us. [Maybe you guys should get up earlier!? Ed.] This video has been viewed by over 3 million. Thanks to Agent 6 for letting us know.
Here's the set-up. Katy, Texas is a periurban [i.e. semi-rural. Ed.] part of the Greater Houston area. It includes a number of farms, including Craig Baker's pig farm which has been in the same family and the same place for decades.
But Katy did not have a mosque. Greater Houston has something like five dozen mosques, but in Katy there wasn't one. To remedy this dire dearth of suitable places for Muslims to gather, an Islamic association bought an 11-acre chunk of land next to... wait for it... the pig farm.
Yes, they knew their neighbour kept pigs when they bought the land, but the solution seemed so simple. Just get the farmer to move, or maybe get rid of his pigs. Imagine their surprise when the neighbour refused! If anyone's going to move, the farmer suggests, it should be the Muslims because, hey, he was there first!
Here is how Mr. Baker showed his displeasure with the situation, as reported by Fox News.
