A taxpayer-funded Texas waterpark has sparked backlash by organizing a Muslim-only day to celebrate Eid.

Epic Waters in Grand Prairie, Texas drew outrage this week as it released fliers for the June 1 event, which will demand a 'modest dress code' and serve only Halal-slaughtered meat.

A whole lot of people upwind of this park need to do a pig roast that day.

Muslims and Hindus don’t belong in America . They should all be deported and the politicians that allowed them in tried for crimes against humanity

Epic Waterpark is owned by the city of Grand Prairie, TX and is for Grand Prairie residents only.

This is probably for the best. It means that on the other days, there is less of a chance of a bomb going off.

This is incorrect. Anyone can buy tickets and attend. There are discounts for Grand Prairie residents.

Fake News by the Daily Fail.

Any group can legally reserve a park for a closed event. Which is what the Muslims did.

Isn’t the city being discriminatory against non-moozlums? How pathetic.

That was what I was thinking. Where are the “separation of religion and state” people?

[Wallace T.]

I agree with respect to Muslims. Hinduism is different, essentially a national religion of India that has no theology of world conquest. It is similar to Greco-Roman or Germanic paganism in many respects. We should not admit them in large numbers, but Hindus do not constitute a national security threat.

I grew up in Asia (you forgot Buddhists). I've seen it all. If Americans would live by the Bible, then get to see briefly societies dominated by those religions, THEN they would understand. Absolutely correct. Deport them all, right now.

[John Milner]

So no Muslims the rest of the year? I can live with that.

Muslim Fun Day.

When I was a kid in NYC, the local YMHA (like the YMCA, but coed and Jewish) had two boys only days and two girls only days for similar religious reasons. Also two family days (including Sunday) for the less Orthodox. Closed Saturday of course.

But it was a private institution.

The real question is why is a water park taxpayer funded?

Show up in a bikini with a lawyer.

Let’s rumble!
