Political Correctness: Seems the ACLU couldn't care less that a San Diego public school has set aside 15 minutes of classroom instruction time for Muslim students to pray, while non-Muslims twiddle their thumbs.
Right now it has no plans to legally challenge the budding madrassa as endorsement of a religion by government. Apparently the establishment clause only applies to the practice of Judeo-Christian rituals in public places.
The special accommodations for Carver Elementary's nearly 100 Somali Muslims don't stop with organized prayer. The school cafeteria has banned pork and other foods that conflict with the Islamic diet.

This is disgraceful. Why should non-Muslim students be subjected to Muslim dietary restrictions? If these people are so concerned about dietary restrictions, there is nothing stopping the parents from either preparing lunch for the kids at home, or instructing the kids to not buy food that isn't to their liking.
On that note, I could sure go for a nice juicy Thanksgiving day HAM right about now.
Well, just utterly amazing. What happened to our no mixing government with religion; and no praying in public schools, yadda, yadda, yadda
Wouldn’t put up with it that is.
We’re giving away the farm to the muslimes one acre at a friggin’ time.
God these people are disgusting. We can’t say the Pledge of Allegiance but we can kow tow to the people that would kill us in a skinny minute. This country is going down the crapper. Where are the Christian parents in this? Why the hell are they not up in arms over this bullcrap?
What is truly amazing about this is the lack of coverage in the MSM! Is this not an important story about the separation of church/state?
The media should be all over this...but then, that might put them on the conservative side...can’t have that.
"...Good Men & Women stand by and do nothing..."
Are you surprised? The ; COURTS, SCHOOLS, Academia in General, the MEDIA; ALL of it!-and add RINOS and our OWN "President Elect"! (have I left anything else LIBBIE-CONTROLED out?)
It's My Fault-Your Fault-His , Her's and ALL of us who have sat by and have done NOTHING really-but a Revolution will be coming from the Right- and it better come quick while there still IS an "America"-as the Founding Fathers so Grandly designed & envisioned it!
This is DISGRACEFUL! The aclu is showing all it’s colors here. If it is not okay to talk to a Christian God then it is not okay to talk to any God in school. These people need to be slapped down and I hope the parents of non muslim students have the brass to do so.
It could be that many of them already voted with their feet and sent their children to private or home schools. Sometimes when things are so far-gone, that really is your only logical choice.
Time to inundate the San Diego school district with letters telling them to put a halt to this outrageousness. Let the f*ckers pray to Baal on their own time and in their own homes or mosques. I'm sick to death of their false piety. They can go back to Somalia, I hear they're instituting sharia law now. Is allah really the devil?
Political correctness is the mother’s milk of homegrown terrorism. If anyone has trouble with that statement, read the United Kingdom newspapers, they are linked on Drudge.
I honestly could not live in Kalifornia. I could be offered a million dollar a year job working 20 hours a week and I would turn it down flat. That entire state has gone completely to crap.
I maintain that this kind of crap would not be happening if we were not told from the highest levels of government to go about our daily lives as if nothing were happening, not to pay any attention to terror threats. We are being told this by Holy George and Company in order to prevent any untoward inicidents involving overt acts directed at moslems in America. Why this is a priority is beyond me.
Would it do any good to complain to the school district or are they so far gone that complaining is a waste of time?
THe problem of too much power in the hands of too few far removed in D.C. is only getting worse. Our manifest destiny is doomed - we can not self govern such a large population with so few in power. They are unaccountable, not to be trusted. Institutionalized corruption is the name of the game in D.C.
You got that right. I fought the public school system for years. I finally gave up (it’s hard trying to make a point with a brick wall), and started my son on an online private christian school. This way I have control over what he’s learning, fact as opposed to theory, which the public schools don’t do.
