It was announced this month that a company based in Dalton Gardens, Idaho — about 40 minutes outside of Spokane — has created Jihawg ammo, or pork bullets.

The bullets, called “Peace through pork,” created by South Fork Industries, are intended to be used against Islamic extremists.

According to AmmoLand, a shooting sporting news site, the bullets are coated with a special ballistic paint infused with pork to make it “Haraam” or unclean to a radical Jihadist.

“Now Americans can defend themselves, their families, their communities, and their country from Muslim terrorists,” the site reported.

Islamic law forbids anyone unclean from entering heaven. 

According to KHQ, Jihawg claims to get to the root of extreme Islam and Jihad by threatening the idea of paradise.

The company behind Jihawg ammo has not been responsive to media requests.

According to its website, however, the idea for the ammo goes back to 2010, when a “group of patriots from Idaho County” agreed they were upset that a mosque was going to be built at Ground Zero. “Everyone in attendance agreed that freedom of religion is paramount for all peoples of Earth but this showed poor taste and had a sense of “rubbing our noses” into 9/11 tragedy. The discussion turned toward possible solutions to stop such a great insult,” the site states.

The company also has targets for sale with slogans like, “Put Some HAM in MoHAMed,” as well as apparel that has similar sayings.

The ammo seems to be popular, as its Facebook page has more than 4,200 likes.

I can’t even start about how wrong this is.

This is WRONG. So wrong!

On the other hand, they learned enough about Islam to create this monstrosity, maybe they could learn more about Islam – like it’s a peace-seeking religion.

This is disgusting. The terrorists who carried out thee attacks on 9/11 represent all Muslims as much as the Westboro Baptist Church represents all Christians.

Take a look at the Southern Poverty Law Center’s hate map. The only terrorist groups Idahoans need to fear are ones claiming to be Christian.

What do they expect? All the Islamic terrorists to just cease because we now have bullets infused with pig fat? Or do they hope for a more “Underworld” reaction where even if you shoot the terrorist in the leg, this HAMmunition will burn them from the inside out like silver nitrate for Lycans or UV irradiated bullets for Vampires in said movie.

This is one of the most ridiculous ideas I have ever been unfortunate enough to witness in my entire life

Pig bullets for profit, I think a late night beer session got out of hand.

“Dude, this can work. We can bring home the Bacon with this?”
“Man, do you think people are so dumb as to buy such a silly product. Double the price of normal ammo?”
“Dude, think of the pet rock.”
“Man, you’re now hamming it up. Get it hamming, I’m so funny. Hamming it up. Get it. Get it.”
“Yeah, you wallowing in it. So what do you say? Pigout on ignorance?”
