Since the city council has already gone ahead and approved this, I think the appropriate public reaction should be to wait for each of the five-times-daily Muslim prayer calls to start over the loudspeakers, and then at that moment start blaring their own amplified performances of the Lord's Prayer, the Star Spangled Banner, Zog Nit Keynmol (song of resistance from the Jewish Vilnius ghetto), church bells, a speech by Daniel Pipes, an Arial Sharon press conference, the Beatles' "Why Don't We Do It In the Road", or whatever strikes their fancy.
