I've probably read as much or more about Islam than anyone on this thread, but I can't see a legal basis for banning the Islamic prayer if one allows church bells and popsicle trucks playing music over a loudspeaker.

Then you have not read enough.

The problem is that you probably read stuff from a neutral, purely educational point of view like I did, starting about 13 years ago. These guys won't think you know a thing unless you read with a pre-concieved view of hatred towards Islam and see everything in that light. In their view, not one bit of the Quran can be good teaching, nor can any follower of Islam be a good person.

Church bells ring once per week, and they're pleasant sounding; Mooselimb calls for "prayer" happen 5 freakin' times per day, and they sound like angry yodeling meece.

Why can't the Koraniacs instead just buy watches and set their alarms for the prayer times? Answer: because they delight in shoving their sick cult down the throats of the American people.

Here's the issue: 5:00am and 10:00pm. Churches across America have had to cease ringing their bells during "quiet times" and yet the call to prayer is going to be heard at 5am and 10pm, when the tolling has been forced to cease.
