City of Dearborn Apologizes for Arresting Christians...

Detroit, Michigan (May 6, 2013) — After more than two years of intense motion practice and discovery, the City of Dearborn has agreed to enter into a settlement that includes a public apology for arresting several Christian missionaries who were peacefully preaching to Muslims at the Dearborn Arab International Festival in 2010. The American Freedom Law Center (AFLC), a national nonprofit Judeo-Christian law firm, is representing Dr. Nabeel Qureshi, David Wood, and Paul Rezkalla, who were thrown in jail on June 18, 2010, and charged with “breach of the peace” for their free speech activity.

In September 2010, Robert Muise, AFLC Co-Founder and Senior Counsel, represented the Christians during a five-day criminal trial. At the end of the trial, the Christians were acquitted by a unanimous jury verdict. Following the acquittals, fellow AFLC Co-Founder and Senior Counsel David Yerushalmi and Muise filed a 100-page, civil rights lawsuit against the City, its mayor, John B. O’Reilly, its chief of police, Ronald Haddad, 17 City police officers, and two executives from the American Arab Chamber of Commerce on behalf Qureshi, Wood, and Rezkalla. The lawsuit was later amended to add the Arab Chamber as a defendant. The civil rights complaint alleged that the Christians’ constitutional rights were egregiously violated during the Arab festival.

How many of these idiots have suffered for their illegal actions? Not one. Apologies don't cut it, Dearborn. This nothing more than Muslim bigotry, thuggery, and intimidation.

Muslims are invaders and will tell you to your face they are. But they
are somehow a protected class and Treason isn't used anymore! That must change.

They will not deport the muslimes. They just elected a new city council which is predominately muslime. Their chief of police’s last name is Haddad. The caliphate is expanding. What will be interesting is how the islimeic majority will deal with the abed who are also expanding in to formerly white communities near Detroit. But hey, its the religion of peace don’t you know.
