No offense, buzz, but I think the analogy is inapt. The pork chop diner could be cheerfully questioning a dietary restriction, without doing anyone any harm or in any way attacking Jews or Judaism. Cozying up to Nazis is a whole different ball of wax.

Jews who eat pork chops are either:
1) Completely clueless about the dietary restriction, or vaguely know about it but think it does not apply to them OR
2) Intentionally displaying their contempt for Jews and Judaism by conspicuously partaking in such a manner that would get them executed if they were insulting Islam

No one has ever “cheerfully questioned” the dietary restrictions by deliberately flouting them.
