SNIPPET: "LAS VEGAS - Henderson Police are investigating some of their own officers regarding a complaint filed by a group of Muslim men who stopped to pray in a parking lot.
The incident happened in December. The Muslim men were passing through Las Vegas on a road trip. They stopped at a convenience store parking lot in Henderson to perform their sunset prayer. According to documents obtained by 8 News NOW, a concerned citizen called the police, saying seven Middle Eastern males were acting suspiciously by a gray minivan with California license plates. The caller reported several of the men were kissing the ground.

SNIPPET: "After almost 45 minutes, the Muslim men were on their way. They were not arrested or cited. They are now vowing to fight what they consider an unlawful stop.
Cue the obligatory mainstream media CAIR reference with no hint that CAIR is an unsavory Hamas-linked group that has opposed every anti-jihad effort ever devised by man:
The Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR, has filed a formal complaint with the Henderson Police Department."

Read my tagline.
They could have prayed in their cars or prayed at along a roadside where they would not draw attention or FEAR because of what their brethren have wrought upon our nation.
Slap um all with disturbing the peace and get on with it...and let the Henderson Police go.
Cindy I love your work, but do you really think anyone is going to click on ALL those links. The Readers Digest short version may work better.....just saying.

Hey fist boy,
Cindy DOES do great work and if anyone goes to any of her links they may find out just how EVIL islam is, pal.
Oh yeah, and you aren’t my pal pal.
You have a right to pray. You don’t have a right to pray on private property, at least not in such a fashion as to interfere with other’s use of that parking lot.
An amazing compilation of work there! Thank you for all your effort.
This will keep me busy awhile.
Well, Joe Blow, I thought a little constructive criticism might help make her posts more readable. If you can scroll through all those posts, read them and give me a synopsis.....more power to you. I know you can't, so good riddance.
I saw something similar in a Home Depot parking lot in Campbell, CA.
Ostensibly Muslim dude all crouched over in a corner of the parking lot, facing east.
And a lot of freaked out Illegal Aliens standing a few yards away, watching.
a concerned citizen called the police, saying seven Middle Eastern males were acting suspiciously by a gray minivan with California license platesI would not have called the police... Thanks Cindy.
That must have been quite a scene.
Oh, it was! I’ll never forget it.
Complain, muslim, outrage, offended. Words that all fit together.

Praying in park puts man in jail for 9 days
WorldNetDaily.com ^ | March 24, 2010 | Bob Unruh

A Christian who prayed in a public park with six other people is serving a nine-day jail sentence for disorderly conduct even though his case is under appeal and charges against the others were dismissed or overturned.
Julian Raven of Elmira, N.Y., said he was “surprised by police at his office,” handcuffed and taken into custody this week, according to the Alliance Defense Fund, which is defending Raven.
“According to his wife, police escorted him out of a court hearing … in handcuffs in front of his crying children to begin serving his nine-day jail sentence,” the organization said in a report.
“We are surprised at how eager the city was to arrest Mr. Raven again in light of his appeal. Now he will serve time in jail; however, we will continue to aggressively pursue his appeal in court,” said Joel Oster, ADF senior legal counsel.
