A Texas Dairy Queen franchise owner who has signs comparing Hindus to monkeys wrapping around his Houston-area restaurant says he is not prejudiced despite calls for an apology from the Hindu community and condemnation from Dairy Queen's corporate office.

Instead, Mohammad Dar, a 65-year-old Muslim, says Hindus are the "racists." There are more than approximately 1 billion people who identify as Hindu, making it the third-largest religion in the world, according to a survey published by Adherents.com.

About a year ago, Dar decided to publicize his self-taught findings — which he says he's been "researching" for 14 years — in a series of displays at his business in order to point out the wrongs of certain religions, specifically Hinduism, he told mySA.com in a phone interview on Wednesday.

Hindus and Muslims do not get a long period. Just look at India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh.

I would think DQ headquarters would have something in the contract where they could yank his franchise for doing something like this.

Would accusing him of being Hinduphobic be Islamophobic?

1.) He has the constitutional right to do this.

2.) DQ has the constitutional right and, hopefully, the contractual right to yank his franchise.

3.) His customers have the constitutional rights - which I hope the exercise - to refuse to patronize his store, inform the public why, and urge the public to do likewise.

4.) I look forward to hearing soon that this equine rump has gone out of business.
