The First Amendment of the United States Constitution protects the right to freedom of religion and freedom of expression from government interference. It has nothing to do with an employee on a radio station saying things the owners of the station don't like.
This fellow might be smart in his commentary about CAIR but he shows he's a dunce when it comes to the first amendment. And, by the way, it seems to me that Michael Graham now has a WIDER audience and is more well known today he ever has been before. In his "business" that's a good thing. And, he has been "speaking freely" about his firing and his commentary on CAIR all over the place. he has hardly been silenced and appears to have actually found a bigger voice. A voice that has no "right" to be heard, just the right to speak.
CAIR is one of 100's of thousands of tax exempt entities that in my view should not be tax exempt at all. CAIR is a 501 (c)(4) and donations to them are not tax deductible but I wonder why we allow a tax exempt status to such a group. We need to rethink the laws governing so-called nonprofits in America and kill off a lot of these groups that are in business to push their own political agendas, enrich their handlers or just outright launder money. A charity should be a charity, not PETA or CAIR or even Juducial Watch for that matter. Makes these people operate these businesses and tax them unless they are actually doing charitable work.
OK but IIRC muslims have sued private companies (I think DELL) that wouldn't allow them to stop working so they could pray.
So when muslims want to tell a private business when they will work it's OK and now it looks like muslims can tell another private company (ABC) what their talk show hosts can talk about.
Looks like they just win all the way around.
And wasn't there a case here down in FL where a non-muslim woman was working for a muslim company and she was fired because she ATE FOOD the muslim owners didn't approve of?
Thank you for posting the info on CAIR's tax status. This was a question I asked a few weeks ago. Any organization affiliated with terrorists and their propaganda organizations should NOT be allowed tax-exempt status. Wasn't there a similar situation with one of the leftist organizations on the west coast where because they were on the government's list of domestic terrorist orgainizations, they lost their status? I may not be remembering correctly. I'm sure someone here knows.
