Hamtramck,Mich.--Over some residents' objections, the City Council voted unanimously Tuesday night to allow a mosque to send out a call to prayer to Muslims on a loudspeaker....five times a day.

Garbage like this caterwauling from the parapet's is just a symptom of the disease, which is massive immigration from Muslim countries. For whatever reason George Bush and the GOP Congress see fit to import Islam, handing out green cards to about 100,000 new alien muslime yearly.

Apparently if you are from Saudi Arabia but are on vacation in Dubai or Bahrain, Allah can't see you so you are wide open to sin. That explains Arabs and Las Vegas, Allah isn't looking anywhere near there.

Part of our problem as Christians in the U.S. is that since 1830 a pessimistic apocalytpic paralysis - rapture fever if you will - has allowed for a retreat from cultural dominion.
I agree with you about the problems which began to manifest in the 1800's. So much of the heresy plaguing Christianity stems from this time period, as well as the seeds of Marxism, socialism and modern liberalism. In order for us to defeat Islam, and don't be fooled, this IS a war with Islam, it is necessary that we first look to ourselves and purify our Christianity, because our lukewarm, tainted lackadaisical brand of faith is at present no match for the "purist" form of islam we now face.

I don't believe in that cult and I sure as hell don't want to hear it 5 times a day in my city or town. That's fine, just don't have your response leave them able to label you as the bad guy.

Maybe a good idea for those against this thing would be to QUIT buying from muslime businesses, dont ride in taxis driven by muslimes, DO NOT frequent ANY muslime or arab business) Some great, and legal, ideas for protest. Except not all Arabs are Muslims, so check before boycotting Arab businesses.
To: Sir Gawain
So a fundamentalist Christian such as the poster you're responding to is on the same level as a fundamentalist Muslim? On the level of hatred towards those of another religion, definitely. On the level of violence used when acting on that hatred, no -- at least not yet. Many Christians here are already advocating violence over what comes out of some loudspeakers.

When I was in Spain there was a huge mosque in a beautiful tourist area,overlooking the Mediterranean.
The "call" started and it was very loud,and many of the Jewish folks in our group were horrified.
Our tour guide said that they play the calls on a CD,there is not a real person doing the call to prayer,just a recording with a very loud sound system.Can you imagine if something went wrong and the recording got stuck?
All Christians and Jews should just put their CD players in the window and let it rip 5 times a day!!!!!!!

I'm outraged! How dare they make such a motion to push a religion here when Christianity is hardly tolerated in the public square. Besides, our primary language is E-N-G-L-I-S-H.
This should be cause for concern. I sense that this religious moaning noise is pure "babble" and inappropriate to amplify into any neighborhood, especially among non-moslem Americans. If a neighbor was to complain I suppose the city council might say, move if you don't like it...which by most accounts would be insensative and intolerant to suggest.
Besides, to me the moaning sounded very disturbing...and even creepy. Like a man contemplating his future in hell...(72 virgins not included).

Righteous Indignation,
It's simple: Palestinians are the Gutter-Dogs of Hummanity.
Palestinians breed like sub-human vermin, then sacrifice their own children to become "Human Bombs", killing others' Children in the process.
Palestinians are typical of the Arab mental squalor that's condemned entire sub-continents to vast cesspools of poverty, disease, and brutal ignorance.
Palestinian Women are worthy of the Enslavement in which they and their Babies suffer eternal damnation, at the hands of Pseudo-Men whose Barbarism is only exceeded by their Pathetic Depravity towards the Moslem Boys playing at the local Mosque.
Palestinian Women could have rebelled against their Depraved Male Slave-Masters decades ago, as did their Asian and Western European sisters. But the Arab's racial cowardice (genetically inbred over the centuries) condemns Arab Men and Children to flee from genuine Honor just as disease flees from Penecilum.
Why does the entire World turn away in disgust at the Palestinians ?
Because even the monstrously evil Bolshevicks and Nazis had the courage to fight their enemies as Men, face-to-face, eyeball-to-eyeball.
Because even the deranged Japanese Kamakaze Pilots of World War II mustered the honor of a suicide-death in the face of Open Battle.
Accordingly, even fifty (50) years after World War II, American, Japanese, British, German and Russian soldiers will even toast together the mutal memory of their fallen comrades, because all were imbued with the Singular Honor of Men who Sacrificed Their Lives (on the field of battle) for their respective nations.
Palestinians ? They cannot even comprehend such Honor.
It's as foreign to Palestinians as America's Bill of Rights and the God-Ordained Right of Women to enjoy the blessings of life and family, without living as Dowery Slaves in the Shadow of Fear of being Burned at the Stake to satify the Satanic Monsters lurking in the Soul of every Islamic man.
Have I made my Point ?

My understanding is that it is Albanian "refugees" from the "situation" in Kosovo, coming here and spreading the same filth they spread there. No wonder they're also known as "Elbow-nians". The opposition is Polish Catholics who have been there for (I think) 80-100 years. They do ring their bells, and they don't like this one bit. I expect violence. If albanians really are the problem, then whatever the people of this town decide to do, they'd be well advised to do it sooner, rather than later.
This has the basic earmarks of the albunnies having decided to take over the town, and run all others out. Whatever housing values in this town are now, they'll be a tenth of that or less at the point at which panic sets in and EVERYBODY leaves.

The story above is typical of what is to come, until the day on which the practice of islam is banned in America and these ##ckers are sent back where they came from. The albanians have apparently targeted this one little town for takeover, and for the removal of the indigenous population.
If the process goes the way it did in Kosovo and other Balkan areas, the people of Hamtramck will be progressively intimidated and brutalized until they all panic and leave, selling their properties for ten cents on the dollar or less. They will be subjected to beatings and rapes, and whatever else it takes.
Typically one albanian will walk up and ask a homeowner if his property is for sale, and the homeowner will probably say no. When the guy has finally seen enough and had enough of broken windows, slashed tires etc. etc. and decides to sell, he will find that only the one albanian who had originally asked is allowed to make offers (the albanian "code"), and that nobody else is interested, at all.
Moreover, unless and until something happens, this little drama is, in all likelihood, coming to a neighborhood near you.
To: hapy
what can we do about it? I don't know about michigan, but here in California we would already be circulating petitions in every neighborhood to recall all the councilpersons who voted for this outrage, and replace them with normal people who will rescind the decision ASAP.
In addition, in order to deal wth those brainless idiots who will say "I am too far away to be bothered by it", I would make high fidelity recordings of the damned noise, rent sound trucks and make sure that the call to damnation is repeated in every neighborhood in town at the same time and see how long it lasts!
