Months after being sued, a small Massachusetts town has agreed to let a local Islamic group build a cemetery that some neighbors opposed.

Under a deal approved this week, the town of Dudley will permit the Islamic Society of Greater Worcester to buy a long-idle dairy farm and build a 6-acre cemetery at the site. In exchange, the group won’t seek to expand the burial ground for at least a decade and will drop a lawsuit it filed against the town in July.

The society sued Dudley after a town zoning board denied plans for the cemetery in June, saying the group didn’t have standing to seek a special permit. The group, which runs a mosque about 20 miles from Dudley, alleged that its constitutional rights were violated in the rejection. …

Someone with a manure spreader needs to “drop by” and unload a bunch of pig crap on the land. That will despoil it forever.

Is that where the unmarked/undisclosed grave of the Boston bomber is buried?

I like that. I thought it would be a good place to walk a dog but a pet pig would be even better.

Who negotiates these “compromises”? In 10 years, when the group wants to expand is when they will need more room. Six acres is plenty of space for 10 years of Muslimes dying. After that, they can take up the entire dairy farm with a mosque, worship center, madrassas, firing range, and bomb factory.

moose limbs better make sure it’s private, otherwise, they have to sell plots to anybody. I would like to see a non-moose limb try and buy a plot.

I’m very confused, I thought all muslims needed to be buried at sea, just like OBL. And how do you “build” a cemetary?

If life is good and proper, the farm was a pig farm before it became a dairy farm and, hopefully, there’s plenty of pig shit two feet below the surface just waiting to wrap itself around ragheads!

I like the idea of cemeterys - as long as THEY have to be here.
Faster you fill em up, the better....

Kind of like the sign in front of a business..

We would rather do business with 1 million Muslims etal before 1 American soldier.

After the Battle of Gettysburg, when the battle field was cleaned up, the Union dead were sent home to their relatives; the Confederate dead were carted to the Gettysburg town dump and piled up with the garbage and trash.
Why should terrorist dead be given better burial accommodations than this?
