The mayor should not be offended, that was my point.

The muslims want us all to be so-o-o- tolerant of Islam, but they themselves show no tolerance for the majority religion of America, Christianity.

...will not tolerate discrimination within his administration.

Unless it's against people who don't believe homosexuality is a good thing....

"This is about judgement" Mayor Kasim Reed stated during the news conference Tuesday. "This is not about religious freedom, this is not about free speech" Reed said. "Judgement is the basis of the problem" Reed commented.

Liar. He *WANTS* people to think this is about "Judgement", but it is in fact about religious freedom and freedom of speech.

Just as the Nazis and Communist would allege that dissidents were "Insane", so to is this man trying to claim "faulty judgement" against someone who doesn't bow to the Gay-stapo.

I expect these people are going to get some "Judgement" in the future and it won't be to their liking.

Wikipedia says he was named Mohammad because his dad was considering converting to Islam when he was born. Says he was raised as a Methodist. Started out saying he supported civil unions for gays but not marriage but in 2012 said he supported gay marriage. Now he’s all about silencing all the opposition. Didn’t take long to make a tyrant out of him...

“This is about judgement................”

You are right Mr. Mayor. On Judgement Day, you’ll have to explain a whole lot....................

You know who is in control by who you are not allowed to criticize.

Exactly right. Even a black Obama-administration official is not free to speak against the all-powerful (white) Gay Mafia in a city supposedly run by black Obama-administration lovers.

Thanks for the update on the full name of the Mayor. His religion is said to be United Methodist.
Once again we see an Orwellian world in front of us. The Constitution being blatantly ignored.

His first name is Mohammed. But it looks like it may have only been his father who was Muslim; he identifies as UMC. A liberal church, for sure, but unlike Rev. Wright’s UCC, it still retains some formal Christian beliefs that are incompatible with Islam. (The UCC made Jim Jones a Reverend simply because they recognized that identifying as a Reverend would help the atheist Bolshevik avoid scrutiny.)
