If we work hard and keep our eye on the target we can destroy our own country.

Debbie Almontaser, was quoted yesterday interpreting T-shirts that say “Intifada NYC” as not an endorsement of violence but rather “an opportunity for girls to express that they are part of New York City society .....IF (underlined) I said “Kill all Muslims before they kill us,” would I be granted the same misunderstanding? I only meant they are part of Philly society. HMMMMMM?

It’s disgusting to ask the US taxpayers to pay for this school, and it’s totally hypocritical to let them DO Islam at this school when Christian kids can barely wear crosses and pray quietly without being strung up by the ACLU.

I cannot see how this is being allowed.

[Berosus]

Guess it's time to post what the ACLU really thinks.

“By minimizing the word’s historical associations I implied that I condone violence and threats of violence,” she said. “That view is anathema to me and the very opposite of my life’s work.”

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Lying to the infidels is OK.

[wintertime]

I cannot see how this is being allowed.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It is all part of the Marxist movement to destroy America. That is why it is being tolerated.

Why can’t people see that our government schools K-12 and our universities are on a campaign to destroy America?

Where are Rush and Sean on this?

In my opinion the **biggest** threat to our nation are our schools! It is more of a threat than any other single issue without exception.

It is time that we completely defund government subsidy of education on the K-12 and university levels. We need to do this immediately before it is too late.

I cannot even understand her answer much less believe it.

not an endorsement of violence but rather "an opportunity for girls to express that they are part of New York City society ... and shaking off oppression."

What precisely is the "oppression" they are shaking off and what are the measures they are using to shake it off ? The very same measures that she's now trying to deny she meant.
