I saw this article yesterday in the local Metro. I thought it so odd that I decided to post it here except that I misplaced the paper and forgot all about it until just now. So I searched Google to see if I could find it again, surprised to find out that it even made “Mail Online!

Sara was to celebrate her 21st. birthday so her boyfriend hung those puffy balloon things in the window stating “21. Well, seeing it in reverse (from outside) it resembles IS (Islamiska Staten) ¦ ISIS. So some nosey Parker rang the police!

I was sure news from Sweden would have been much more interesting to FG members than horse racing. I was wrong. Dead wrong.

I found it interesting, HT !!! I thought, how stupid some people must be to think that somebody would be foolish enough to advertise that they sympathised with IS !!!!

:thinking: :rolleyes:

That's a good point. Anyway, a backwards "2" doesn't really look like an "S" - does it?

I doubt very much if the story's even genuine. It is the Mail, after all.
