“If Muslims don’t like these access laws, then let them elect representatives that will reverse them, or failing that, go back to Somalia where violence trumps the law and they would be more comfortable. Shame, shame on Technical High School for buckling under to thugs and abandoning their responsibilities in such a cowardly manner.”
Better still, deportation and if necessary chained to the airplane seat on a one way back to Somalia.
Where kowtowing to radical Islam meets the ADA...gotta love liberalism...
I'm not familiar with that one.
Islam is incompatible with freedom and Western culture. They are here to force us to bend to their rules. When will we stand and fight? When it’s too late?
Just as in England, we seem to be developing little cesspools of dhimittude in this country.
ANY business man can refuse service to ANY customer for ANY reason! (accepting all consequences) That said, the stupidest thing ANY business man can do is say ‘no’ to a customer, or refuse to serve him...that said, the best thing that can happen to us here in the USA is for more stupid muslim businessmen to say ‘no’ to more customers, driving themselves out of business that much faster!...entertaining us in the process!
Walking Lawsuit.
Disability trumps religion in the public square.
I hope there is a really good lawyer out there who
can sue the pants off this school and set a precedent.
Not liking a particular dog? Sure.
But dogs as a whole? Seriously? There's something wrong with such a person. Very, very wrong.
Hurd is in a tougher situation than alluded to by the article. If he stays, the Muslim students might try to goad the dog into “attacking” them. Hurd could get into a legal pickle. It’s no wonder he feels uncomfortable.
“Instead of expelling the student for his threat and making an example of him, they chose to coddle the student and chase the teacher out of his job.”
(1) If the student threatened to kill the teacher’s dog, the teacher should report him to law enforcement. See below.
(2) If they drove the teacher out of his job, he should see a lawyer and drag the school district’s name and reputation through the court system and the newspapers while getting six or even seven figures in punitive damages. (Not legal advice, I am not a lawyer, but common sense says you don’t interfere with a service animal.)
St. Cloud is in Minnesota, isn’t it?
Also contained in chapter 8 is a new crime in the criminal code for harming service animals. This new law creates penalties which apply to a person who intentionally and without justification causes harm or death to an animal trained to assist a person with a disability while the animal is involved in that purpose or is in the custody of the person with the disability.
The criminal penalty depends on the level of harm that the animal suffers and ranges from a misdemeanor to a fine of up to $10,000 or a four-year imprisonment or both. This language was passed in response to a specific incident where a service animal was harmed in the course of performing its duties for its owner.
Effective: Most provisions effective 07/01/01; others effective 08/01/01
Q: What’s brown and black, and looks good on an Islamic supremacist who threatens a guide dog or other service animal?
A: A Rottweiler
This is outrageous!
Sounds like an ADA violation and communication of a criminal threat to me. Perhaps the LAW should be applied to the students and school.
Solution: A judiciously applied case of ‘Whupass’ to the aggrieved Muslim followed by expulsion from the school [and hopefully deportation to a country that plays his favorite song, “My Sharia”].
He needs to bring a rabid pit bull who carries a machine gun and sprays attack-killer-bees when he barks.
Choice "A" presented here is emminently unacceptable; no more acceptable than "electing representatives who will reverse laws prohibiting one man from owning another as property".
