Join us at Six Flags Over Georgia for Muslim Friends and Family day presented by ICNA, Sunday, October 11, 2015. Muslim Friends and Family Day is an opportunity for you to enjoy the park while showing your support for the Muslim Community.

In addition to enjoying thrilling roller coasters, rides, shows and attractions, Muslims and their friends, families, and all guests will be able to enjoy Halal foods, open-air bazaars featuring Muslim merchants, congressional prayers, informative lectures and a constant stream of Islamic nasheed. Muslim Friends and Family Day also raises awareness about Islam and Muslims and promotes a better understanding of the faith.

Established in 1968, ICNA (the Islamic Circle of North America) was formed to support the Muslim community in the United States. Over the past four decades, ICNA has worked to establish connections between Islam and the public. Today, ICNA is known for its commitment to self- development, education and community outreach.

I saw it on FB and thought it was satire, so I went to their page. Looks true to me.

Six Flags should become the playground solely for Muslims.

Christians and Jews should boycott!

ICNA is a dangerous organization. This mainstreaming of groups like them and CAIR will only end badly.

A lot of the Muslim wives will not be big enough for half of the rides.

Even that will be hurried along, because past generations used to actually stand up and fight for God and country.

Now America will just waste away unnoticed by today’s generation as they occasionally look up from their cellphones.

There are alot of hijabs where I work now. Amazing women are allowed to do academics.

I like many of these people personally but I will always remain wary.

Speaking of CAIR, something I ran across today:

From 2011 but I hadn’t heard about it:

CAIR, ACLU Urge Court to Uphold Ruling Blocking OK Sharia Ban: Discriminatory And Unnecessary Law Maligns American Muslims

(Oklahoma City, OK 5/9/11)- The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) today filed a brief with the US Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit urging the court to uphold a ruling that blocked the implementation of a discriminatory and unnecessary Oklahoma state constitutional amendment that prohibits the consideration of Islamic Sharia law and what is broadly described as “international law.”

The measure officially titled the “Save Our State Amendment,” was temporarily enjoined last year by a lower court for blatantly disfavoring an entire faith and denying Oklahoma’s Muslims access to the judicial system on the same terms as every other citizen. The ACLU and CAIR are seeking to have the amendment permanently struck down.

“This amendment is nothing more than a blatant attempt to subvert the Constitution by enshrining anti-Muslim bigotry into state law,” said Daniel Mach, Director of the ACLU Program on Freedom of Religion and Belief. “The idea that followers of an entire faith should be treated like second-class citizens is ugly, discriminatory, and profoundly un-American.”

“This brief and the court’s previous ruling make clear that our Constitution does not tolerate
using state laws to target religious minorities,” said CAIR Staff Attorney Gadeir Abbas.

Although even the amendment’s supporters concede that Oklahoma’s courts have never improperly applied Sharia law, the measure was placed on the ballot by the legislature and approved by Oklahoma voters in November 2010. That vote prompted Muneer Awad, Executive Director of CAIR’s Oklahoma chapter, to file suit alleging violations of his rights under the Free Exercise Clause and Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.

Awad was deeply concerned that the law was not only discriminatory, but also would prevent
courts from recognizing personal legal documents that incorporate his beliefs, such as his last
will and testament. When the district court issued an order blocking implementation of the law, the state appealed.

“As a citizen of Oklahoma, it is appalling to think that my state representatives regard my
belief system and that of other Muslims as a threat,” said Awad. “This law singles us out for no reason, and cuts us off from the protections of the law against discrimination that are granted to all other faiths.”

In addition to banning courts from considering Sharia law, the amendment’s international law
provision also suffers from major constitutional flaws. The law could prohibit Oklahoma courts
from respecting international commitments, honoring international business agreements and
recognizing international adoptions and marriages conducted overseas.

“Barring courts from considering international law is not only constitutionally problematic but
it is also unwise and counter-productive,” said Jamil Dakwar, Director of the ACLU Human Rights Program. “The U.S. can hardly be taken seriously as a leader of global human rights, or even free trade, if states are permitted to disregard international law.”

Attorneys on the case include the ACLU’s Mach and Heather L. Weaver; ACLU of Oklahoma cooperating counsel Micheal Salem; and CAIR’s Abbas.

Imagine the ACLU standing up for Christians. They stand up for CAIR, though.

Well, now...a very good reason to cross Six Flags off the list of vacation destinations for millions of Americans.

But I dont see the obvious being stated...

Are they going to divide the park into a Sunni section and a Shiite section, with head choppings along the boundary line?

Americans should just learn to walk around with their heads tilted back...exposing their throats in such a manner would make it easier for the muslims to cut their damn heads off...is there anythng else we can do for the musloids?

“...and a constant stream of Islamic nasheed.”

I googled “nasheed”. It’s obnoxious caterwauling Ahab-The-Ayrab “music”, chanted to the beat of drums (the only musical instrument permitted by Profit Mohammed). A constant stream of which would send any “infidel” to the loony bin.

But I have a real question: is Six Flags Muslim Day for muzzies ONLY? Like, “infidels” stay out! Women in miniskirts will be stoned!

Disgusting.

And on the 11th the following day, they will have a national bomb-sniffing dogs and trainers day.
