The Muslimes are asking for Special Rights, which they plan to

take advantage of Five Times DAILY ??

Ludicrous is the only word that comes to mind for this INSANITY.

Would any SANE City Council appease any other group, be they

a religious ,.civic, or business group? No they would not.

I dont LIKE ISLIME and I dont approve of P.C. appeasement.

GOD BLESS THE MOHMMADUMMIES JUDEO CHRISTIAN NEIGHBORS

May they Prevail.

Solution - form clandestine neighborhood groups to play "Oh, Come All ye Faithful" (similar message) at the same times on loudspeakers from alternating homes, boomboxes, and teenage car sytems. See what the arguements are then.

But since I'm a secularist, I'd prefer "Stranglehold" by Ted Nugent! I'm just waiting to here that awful wailing just once...they'll soon get a taste of my 1000 watt, 5 foot Definite Technology speakers facing out the windows playing, "A Closer Walk With Thee". HA!

Sorry, ideas based on personal experience and contct in this country and others with members of TROP, not the media. Also, just as the German population as a whole was culpable of the crimes of the Nazis, so are those muslims that say nothing when attrocities are committed by their brethren. As soon as they police themselves, without being dragged kicking and screaming by the West I will belive them.

[Mister Baredog]

The first call would not be allowed to be broadcast before 6AM.

6AM, oh, well, I guess that would be fine(NOT) When is last call? There's 5 a day you know.

I doubt if the Mullahs will be happy until it's 4AM from coast to coast. Osama wouldn't approve either.

[Mister Baredog]

"The only legitimate basis for opposition is the noise issue."

I doubt that. What ever became of the separation clause? If the city does it for one, it has to do it for all religions. Did I miss something?

Yes, the italicized line came from post #1, I was commenting on it, as were you.

Looks to me the only way to win this battle will be to shut down the church bells. Too many lawyers for any other result IMHO.

[Mister Baredog]

The NOISE issue was used successfully in areas where CHURCH BELLS, once a common occurance on Sunday, have since been banned. Our heritage is slowly being discarded and soon it will all be just......history.

After which liberal historians will continue to sterilize said HISTORY in the name of political correctness.

"Islam has bloody borders." - Samuel P. Huntington

There is a reason why this has been true for over 14 centuries. Are you beginning to see the reason "why"?

Islam is not just "another" religion wherein you can "take it or leave it". Islam itself does not permit that choice.

Today's Islamics are just another version of the 20th Century Communists. We couldn't let them get in America and proceed to run the country either. We had laws to keep them out and, yes, discriminate against them and their ideas. Unfortunately, today's climate of Political Correctness says all things are "equal". Well, "good" and "evil" may be equal in a postmodern college debate, but they are not so in human reality.

Islam is an evil system. It is completely antithetical to Western values and the precepts of our Constitution and laws. Instead, Islam means to burrow in and substitute their own values, by force if necessary. They need to be stopped and reversed back into their medieval time-warp and not allowed a foothold in America - despite how they cunningly misrepresent themselves and the theological/political totalitarianism for which they stand - and wrap themselves in the American flag, all the while intending to fatally subvert it.

Jews were responsible for the Holocaust? Weird. Not everybody sees it as their responsibility to crusade against some extremists on the other side of the world.

Jews were responsible for the Holocaust?

You know exactly what I meant, and your reply belies the weakness of you arguement. Either that or you are not as deep a thinker as you make yourself out to be. If you want to quibble, then by the time the holocost started, Jews had been excluded as members of German society. There for they were German, but they were not part of Germany.

Not everybody sees it as their responsibility to crusade against some extremists on the other side of the world.

They aren't on the oher side of the world, they are among us. They have killed on US soil, and it is a matter of time until they succeed and do it again.

Did you vocally protest the Christian abuses in Liberia, organizing and getting on the news. Or, if you even thought it was wrong, did you mainly keep it to your friends and acquaintances? Muslims I know don't run out on the streets. They're not activist types.

I usually equate it to the pro-life movement. Yes, you have a tiny percentage of Christians (and even non-Christians) out there protesting, but the vast majority of Christians just know it's wrong and don't go out there where they'll be heard and maybe picked up by the media. You don't hear about them on the news.
