What's going on in Michigan? First a mosque in Hamtramck wants to broadcast the daily prayer calls over loudspeakers and now this!

"The two major Muslims holidays in question are Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the monthlong Ramadan fast, and Eid al-Adha, which marks the annual completion of the pilgrimage to Mecca. The dates of the holidays change each year because they are determined by a lunar calendar. "

BS, no muslim stops from work or close their businesses on either of these days as I can remember. This is someone just trying to be a moron.

"The city of Dearborn will follow the state and federal holiday calendar, and until that changes, that's where I stand," Thomas Tafelski said.

Cities with a lot of Jews as students or teachers sometime close on Yom Kippur, on the grounds that lots of people would be absent anyway. Some cities close on Good Friday afternoon for the same reason, and have defeated court challenges, with the courts saying that the city is not following a religion, it is just making a practical accomodation for absences. If the facts in this case are similar, I see nothing intrinsically wrong with it.

One city councilman expressed doubt.

Within a few years, Muslims will control the council, then you'll see some REAL changes.

Why not shut down for our holidays as well?

Because this country was founded on God and Christian beliefs.
