It will make it to court I am sure, and then progressively up the chain of courts.
Close enough. As of the 2010 census, Dearborn is 41.7% Arab, which is a big enough group that, if they stick together, creates effective control of city government. Within a few years, expect them to drive out anybody who doesn't act in accordance with Sharia.
Ping.

2nd Largest Muslim Population in the Non-Muslim World: How Dearborn Became The Mecca of America
http://ibloga.blogspot.com/2012/10/2nd-largest-muslim-population-in-non.html
Mixed “feelings” about this one. That was the same as flying Condederate flags in front of a mostly black school in a former slave state. You’ve guaranteed yourself grief.
Is it a right? You bet it is! But just because you have the right to do something, that does not make it the right thing to do. Especially when the reaction could easily turn violent. (Donning NOMEX flameproofs)
There's a section of East Dearborn that's largely Muslim. (Fordson HS is part of that) Dearborn itself is still majority white ethnic Catholic (Italian, Irish, Polish) and its city council is still majority white ethnic as well. It's state rep is Armenian and before that Italian.
As far as Sharia Law goes, the sky isn't falling, and it's not in effect. It's a city of under 100,000 people as well.
Michigan is 1-2% Muslim overall. That includes blacks and the NOI, which are relatively strong in some of the inner cities.
Some of the sky is falling stuff here is ridiculous.
Dearborn, Michigan now has the largest single concentration of Arab Muslims in North America. There are 32,000 Arab Muslims from Lebanon, Yemen and Iraq living in East Dearborn, making up almost 1/3 of the population. In some districts it is common to see store signs and billboards written in Arabic.
Shia Mosque
The Islamic Centre of America in Dearborn, a Shia mosque frequented mostly by Lebanese Muslims, is the largest mosque in the US. The Centres attractive website has several good photos: http://www.icofa.com/.
Mosques and Islamic Centres play an important role in the life of American Muslims. They are places of refuge and of rest; places where a Muslim can experience the Islamic community and learn about Islam. Many Muslims feel safer and more relaxed within the centres which are somewhat isolated from outside influences. Dearborn is one of the few places in the US where one can actually hear the call to prayer publicly over a loudspeaker.

I’m well aware of Dearborn. I’ve actually been there a few times and live about 45 minutes from there. I’ve been quite safe there despite being an infidel and despite its neighbor being Detroit.
You were lucky.
Dearborn, Michigan is in the 83% percentile rank in the state for Violent Crime. It is in the 75% percentile rank nationally. Lower numbers are better. In this case, 83% of cities in Michigan have crime rates equal to or lower than Dearborn, or said another way, 17% of cities in Michigan have crime rates higher than Dearborn.

Unless it involves flying an Israeli flag, which is exactly like condoning slavery. Got it.
Come on, muslims...you came here for freedom, right? It applies to ALL citizens, you know.
I find it quite interesting that someone that claims South Carolina as a home state is lecturing someone in Eastern Michigan about Dearborn.
I didn’t lecture you. I posted links. I find it odd that any American would defend what Dearborn and Detroit have become.
SC has plenty of crime. We just haven’t been overrun with muslims - yet.
Unless it involves flying an Israeli flag, which is exactly like condoning slavery. Got it.
No, you don't got it! It addresses LOOKING FOR TROUBLE, by displaying anything that will bring trouble about in a particular location. Like parking a car decorated with conservative bumper stickers at an OWS rally and not expecting it to be vandalized. Or parking one with KKK stickers in the 'hood and not expecting a greeting party of locals waiting for you when you return.
Having the RIGHT to do it does not make it a RIGHT thing to do! But I did NOT say that it should be forbidden, or treated as some sort of crime by the police.
Like those damned colonists getting in the faces of those poor, easily vexed soldiers of the 29th Regiment. I'm glad Crispus Attucks took a dirt nap. The thug had it coming.
Dearborn isn't that bad for a Detroit border city (Detroit IS as bad as the hype - but it's not Muslims there either). By Wayne County standards, Dearborn isn't bad at all considering it borders Detroit on two sides and is maybe 2 miles from Inkster (known as Little Saigon for its crime) on another. Certain parts of Westland, Taylor, and Melvindale next door have their issues as well.
From a safety perspective, I'd much rather take my chances with Muslims than I would with Detroiters. Personally, I'd just stay out in the country away from all big cities.
I think the problem is not the local denizens or protestors but rather the police. They, like all other law enforcement officials, have sworn to uphold the law. The Constitution of the United States is the supreme law of the entire country.
They are therefore not doing their sworn duty.
The fix for this is for courageous men to put Israeli flags on their vehicles and drive them in mass into Dearborn.
I don’t think muslims commit nearly as many crimes as “natives”, but they have other ways of attacking us.
