Peter Gadiel wants everyone to remember his son, James, who was killed during the September 11 terrorist attacks.
And he also wants people to remember how he died: "Murdered by Muslim terrorists."

Did anyone find out where those airplanes that attacked Pearl Harbor came from? I know they had red balls on their wings and there’s a flag with the same thing on it but it could be a coincidence.
Yeah Obama plans to apologize for upsetting the Japanese so much that they were froced to act out, clearly it was all the fault of the US. (sarc)
Our political correctness will be the downfall of our nation.
to tolerate evil lets it spread, and those who sanction evil are also evil
Yes. Mitsubishi.
So it'll be a cold day in hades before I ever bought one of their cars.
I stay away from all jap rice burners and wouldn't take a Lexus on a bet. (it's nothing but a fancy, tricked-out Toyota)
Can this be reversed?
So telling the truth is 'disparaging' and ethnic group?
> “To disparage any one ethnic group is just against everything that we stand for here.”
I wasn’t aware that “muslim terrorists” qualified as an ethnic group, on par with the Irish. Have they been promoted or something?
To some, putting words on a memorial is a more hateful act than killing. That’s a great mentality to have. (sarcasm)
If he changed the epitaph to read “Died as the result of failing to appreciate Muslim culture” or “Sacrificed on the altar of American hegemony” it would set better with the PC crowd.
It seems to me a fairly simple matter for this man to pay for the memorial worded any way he choses himself. He can come up with the funds out of his own pocket or raise money by taking donations. I’d happily contribute to such a memorial myself.
And he also wants people to remember how he died: “Murdered by Muslim terrorists.”
If he succeeds in getting this on the monument you can bet it will be chisled out in th future just like the word “savage” was removed from the monuments in the square at Santa Fe NM.
“”We perceive ourselves as a very warm, loving town,” said Ruth Epstein, a Kent selectman and one of two town leaders to vote the plaque down.
That line simply reeks with Oven Jew Liberalism. Sorry, but those were Muslims, they did kill the son, and the father has the right to put on his son’s memorial marker what he so sees fit.
People like her are why I have exceeding few Jewish friends - I simply won’t suffer Liberals willingly.
The good news is that some Jews in South Florida are rethinking their anti-gun position, despite their Liberalism.
Cognitive dissonance ride again.
While you’re at it don’t forget Toshiba who sold our super secret submarine prop design to the Soviets. Neither Toshiba or Mitsubishi products will ever enter my home.
Too bad the younger generation does not share our convictions.
I agree,and so would I (contribute). Don’t ever let the b*stars call the shots by letting them pay the bill. That’s what’s got this country in this mess now.
Supporting unions is supporting the current enemy of freedom.
Supporting Japanese businesses is supporting a former, vanquished enemy that is now an ally and trading partner.
(and you’re getting a high quality product)
And their trains run on time too!
I don’t have liberal friends anymore either. The last one and I slowly drifted apart when I was in my mid-late 20s. It’s not a question of “oh I hate liberals I won’t be friends with them” (though I haven’t met many I liked as personalities), it’s a matter of how can I be friends with someone who has goals that affect me and mine which are diametrically opposed to everything I believe in want for us? I used to think we wanted the same things but just had different paths—but then I grew up.
Same with religion-but at least I always knew that universalism is a lie.
"Hey, I baked you a cake, and George Bush is Hitler!"
US Imperialism.
You’d think, but I was just in Germany and the trains were constantly late.
“To disparage any one ethnic group is just against everything that we stand for here.”
Does that mean we can stop saying it was white people who enslaved black people in the American South?
You missed the seemingly obvious irony. The trains always ran on time under The Third Reich.
Thus the saying, “Oh Hitler was a tyrant, but at least the trains ran on time”.
It was a comment on your weak argument.
Luv my ES350. Sweet ride.
Right you are. And it appears from the looks of things as they are now that they’re winning the earthly war. The only way that I can live with that fact is that I know Who wins the eternal war.
“Obama is a tyrant, but he looks good on TV and the world just loves him!” (BARF)
What kind of TV do you have and how do you feel about Beemers and Volkswagens? I love my Pilot and my TSX (a fancy tricked-out Honda). The war’s been over for almost 65 years and Japan has been a good friend for many years. My great grandfather forgave the CSA before he died and the Civil War had only been over for 62 years.
Like I wrote... damned if I do and damned if I don’t.
No Jack, it should just say ‘’murdered by Muslims’’, period. The whole bloody religion is violent.
True. “Muslim” and “terrorist” are redundant and you are paying for the inscription by the letter. Why waste money?
