Looking north from 11 Mile Road:
Warren, MI in Macomb County is home to the U.S. Army Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM, Detroit Arsenal) and the GM Technical Center.

Neighbors remember the sound of church bells ringing on Sundays.
A brick building with two sharply sloped roofs and a steeple — a Lutheran church for more than 80 years — still stands, but the cross that once stood atop the steeple is gone. About six years ago, the property was sold and turned into the Al Ihsaan Islamic Center.
"They’ll turn anything into a mosque," Justin Tye, 57, told Fox News Digital during a guided tour of his hometown, where the foreign-born Muslim population has grown significantly over the past decade.
Tye remembers the church as the centerpiece of his American suburb where local children would gather on the lawn to play pickup sports.
Wars in the 1990s and 2000s led to a boom of Middle Eastern migrations, as America took in a growing Muslim refugee and immigrant population. Long-standing chain migration policies allowed family members to follow their relatives to the United States, and foreign immigrant visas have exploded in recent years.
This, Tye said, has been the story of Warren. But his town’s plight is overshadowed in the media by nearby Dearborn, a now Muslim-majority city that has garnered national and international attention.
Within a seven-mile radius of his neighborhood, there are now five mosques. Fox News Digital toured the area while Tye pointed them out.
An old industrial machinery business is now a mosque, as is a former Baptist church.

A mosque is an assembly area (invasion jump-off point), not a church.
e.g. obama.
Tye and several neighbors interviewed by Fox News Digital feel like they’re being pushed out of their own hometown.
Because they are
Apparently not enough of the locals feel that way because the local govt. is still in power.
I feel sorry for the ones who do care about their town.
Well, they'll designate it a "mosque." Then they do whatever they want in there with the full protection of our laws. And tax-free, I'm sure.
Islam claims it is a religion, but that is only a pretense. It is a plan of conquest.
Those even talking to the city about building a mosque in their area of ANY U.S. city or town should probably be ran off at the point of a gun, if necessary. Somehow, it seems the city government may be the problem, or at least a large part of it. A city government should be concerned about the welfare of it’s real long term citizens of which Muslims are largely NOT. At the very start of this situation, some of the “immigrants” should have been shown & told that they are not welcome. It sounds like this is basically what was done in Martha’s Vineyard when the Democrats allowed our borders to be overrun. So that makes it a Democrat problem as well as a Muslim problem & our Congress needs to make this problem a priority while we still have any resemblance as a nation.

ALSO A VERY CONVENIENT ARMORY
Muslims, Jews and Hindus are colonizing America. Christians are demonized by a non-Christian media. Ppl don’t realize that being ‘fair’ and compromising means you only die 10,000x over not the 20,000x they asked for.
