Obviously, if the Muslims say they won't do it at night or early in the morning, the daytime "call to prayer" is unnecessary.

Do we know what they are saying?? Are they setting us up?? Kinda funny about the timing of this.

[Arpege92]

Can these MUSLIMES get away with this?

[TomGuy]

That title could be misleading.

From a thread last nite, a petition with enough signatures was presented to the council that stopped the prayer call, (IIRC), until it is voted on by the citizens.

[Celtic Conservative]

wouldn't it be horrible if somebody at the same time , say played some music REALLY loud . Something like the clashes "rock the casbah", or perhaps some Wagner. Yeah, that would be HORRIBLE. Not that I'm suggesting that , Oh no.....

Masud Khan, secretary of the Al-Islah Islamic Center, said the mosque has a constitutional right to broadcast the call to prayer, adding that it is already being done in Detroit and Dearborn.

"If Detroit can do it, why can't we?" he asked. "We have religious freedom. We can express our religion."

Muslims are so full of freedom of religion...

Saudi Arabia - Conversion by a Muslim to another religion is punishable by death. Bibles are illegal. Churches are illegal.

Yemen - Bans proselytizing by non-Muslims and forbids conversions. The Government does not allow the building of new non-Muslim places of worship.

Kuwait - Registration and licensing of religious groups. Members of religions not sanctioned in the Koran may not build places of worship. Prohibits organized religious education for religions other than Islam.

Egypt -Islam is the official state religion and primary source of legislation. Accordingly, religious practices that conflict with Islamic law are prohibited. Muslims may face legal problems if they convert to another faith. Requires non-Muslims to obtain what is now a presidential decree to build a place of worship.

Algeria - The law prohibits public assembly for purposes of practicing a faith other than Islam. Non-Islamic proselytizing is illegal, and the Government restricts the importation of non-Islamic literature for distribution.

Jordan - Has the death penalty for any Muslim selling land to a Jew.

Perhaps we need to start calling in as well... A little pressure never hurt a city council member.

"The petition actually rescinds whatever control we might have had," Majewski said. "I don't see the logic in that."

The logic is by removing you from control, the people who don't want to have to listen to these heathens won't have to.

No, you don't.

[chatham]

Maybe the Fed. Govt. should buy beepers for the muslim congregants and the Mosque could just beep them at the right time for the call to prayer.
It would be a lot quieter and be right up to the state of the art in communications.
From a People subjugated since the dawn of time they sure know their rights in the good ol' U.S.A. in jig time.

These Council members NEED TO GO!

AMERICASTAN?

The problem is...islam is not a religion. In order to qualify as a religion, a group of beliefs must direct believers to the highest, most noble instincts of mankind.

Islam is a hateful cult IMO. It will be interesting to see how long it takes the world to come to this reality.

[OXENinFLA]

I'm glad I moved south.

[Semper Paratus]

They should allow the public "Call to Prayer" at the same time that Riyadh allows the ringing of the church bells.

Whenever they get a church.

What has happened to the people in Michigan?????

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Could be a good time to check your car's emergency equipment...

[monkeywrench]

These mussees are certainly being provacative, here.

[1066AD]

So what happened, if anything, today (Friday) ?

[Travis McGee]

This will be the practical effect of broadcasting the "Muslim call to murder" from loudspeakers in a given town: it will drive out the non-Muslims, and cause an immediate crash in property values. Then the Muslim community will pick up these fire-sale properties cheap, and offer them on easy terms to other Muslims immigrants pouring into America. A decade after beginnging the Muslim call to murder, we will see Muslim-only enclaves.

Then the local immams will push for "sharia law zones," as they are doing today in Canada. Strictly on a voluntary basis, ya know. You know how Muslim wives "volunteer," right?

ALLAHU AKBAR = THE MUSLIM CALL TO MURDER. Just ask Nick Berg or Danny Pearl.
