Can I blame this on the reason why my poor NY Jets suck?
It was built and is still operated by the New Jersey Sports & Exposition Authority. I'm sure there are a lot more Jews at Giant games, but none expect them to provide a Mincha area.
The only reason for provide a prayer area for Muslims is to be able to easily identify them and keep them under surveillance.
ML/NJ
The men claimed they were singled out because of their faith, but the FBI said the men were flagged by stadium security because they were in a sensitive area near the stadium's main air intake duct.
That's the part I find interesting. Take this scenario, you're middle-eastern. You take a PRAYER RUG to a football game. You decide, hey, it's only 2 minutes left in the game, I have to go pray. Where can I pray? Hmm.. this large grate in the wall looks good. Would you HONESTLY pick the air INTAKE to pray next to? I mean seriously? Shouldn't you have a freakin' clue? Air intake means air conditioning, which means if you released some noxious gas, or poison, or anything like that, and POOF! it goes through-out the whole stadium! I'm GLAD that stadium security was looking at people who parked out in front of the air conditioning intakes!
Are the Saudis providing funding for the toilet, I mean prayer area?
LMAO!!!
Those stadium "prayer spaces" should make nice little places for homosexual Muslims to find some privacy, lol.
Make the muzzie prayer room in the stadium jail.
Christians don't need a special prayer space... I'd be embarrassed to ask for one.
No games during Ramadan, whatever that is.
Yes, you are correct.
Christians have faith, not rituals.
I was, of course, only highlighting the absurdity of granting "special interest minorities" unique privileges.
