City Council Meetings to Begin with Muslim Prayers By BOB CONNORS Updated 6:50 PM EDT, Tue, Sep 7, 2010
In the wake of the battle over a mosque at Ground Zero, a move by Hartford City Council is sure to have its critics.
The Council announced Tuesday that it has invited local imams to perform Islamic invocations at the beginning of the Council meetings in September.
Though meetings don't regularly begin with any form of prayer, an email from the Common Council called it "an act of solidarity with our Muslim brothers and sisters."
The email even referenced the ongoing issue in New York. "One of the goals of the Council is to give a voice to the many diverse peoples of the City, which is especially important given the recent anti-Islam events throughout the country."
Council President rJo Winch called it an important move for the Council. "I feel it is very important that, as a Council, we project a culture of inclusiveness in the City of Hartford. Too often it is our differences that divide us. In my opinion, it is our combination of differences that makes us strong," Winch said.
Well now, you have to understand that if those awful rednecks come for the muzzies, the Hartford Town Council is obviously going to be next! [/sarcasm]
PS: I suppose this reveals the real reason for the campaign against public chr*stianity--it's not so much the theology as that they don't want to be associated with "those awful people."
Someone should show up and pass out packages of bacon.

What?
And I bet they can’t say the Lord’s Prayer because it comes from the Bible!
Ridiculous!
Believe me, I would be standing there with my Rosary saying three Hail Marys!
First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.
Pastor Martin Niemöller
Community and individuality are not opposites. People cannot survive on their own. When the odds are stacked against you, you must rally with the oppressed and hated.
When a growing oppressive regime is taking hold, you must act, otherwise you will soon face your enemy alone and hopeless.
Strength of community is a strength as much as individualism, as long you are willing to face weaknesses in your own community. Ignoring slacking values will mean that you will be rallied against by those you oppress.
Niemöller affirms we must rally against unhealthy organized regimes. We must also stay vigilant with those that appear to be good natured, as all organisation attracts corruption. Niemöller also warns us that if it is you who are corrupt, then you will face a stronger combined force of foe!

Next Shariah Law.
Translation: we are not against religion, just against Judaism or Christianity.
Get out of Connecticut as fast as possible...
You can see what is happening in Europe is starting to happen here. Soon there will be enclaves of sharia law and areas non muslims won’t be safe going to. And liberal idiot judges will start judging muslims by sharia law. Count on it.
the barbarians are at the gate and the liberals are unlocking it more and more every chance they get.
OUTRAGEOUS. Here's an excerpt:

I left in 1992. Now in Ohio. Not tremendously better, but not caught up in the foolish dump that is Hartford.
LOL
How about the Hartford political Elitists without brain cells that function replaying Danny Pearl’s decapitation instead so they see Islam at it’s finest.
Here’s another video for the Hartford Elitists to play over and over until they get the message:

This is getting to the point where we are going to have to do something to put a stop to this nonsense.
North or south OH? Curious, which has better weather in your opinion?
Then will the muzzies and the "gays" start bumping into each other?
