LGBT issues are not a new controversy in the Detroit enclave of Hamtramck, which bills itself as 'the world in two square miles' due to its diverse religious, ethnic, and cultural composition.
(LifeSiteNews) — Heralded by CNN, NPR, and other press outlets just several years ago as a sterling example of what “diversity” and “multiculturalism” can do for America, the Muslim-majority city of Hamtramck is currently on the receiving end of a hailstorm of criticism from left-wing media for banning LGBT flags from government buildings.
“This is painful to see in a city that has always fought for equal justice for all,” Michigan Democratic Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib tweeted.
Located just outside Detroit, Hamtramck was historically the home of a large concentration of blue collar, Catholic Polish-Americans. Thanks to globalization, lax immigration policies, and demographic changes, the area became a settling point for Bengalis and Pakistanis in the 1990s. Today, the city’s 28,000 population is overwhelmingly Islamic.
After several hours of intense public comments that saw two lesbian women – one of whom was wearing a clown nose – kiss each other, on Tuesday, June 13, Hamtramck’s six-person, all-Muslim city council – the only one of its kind in the U.S. – voted unanimously to only permit four flags to fly on city property: the American flag, the Michigan flag, city flags, and other national and the Prisoner of War flags.

Liberals really hate folks who actually believe in their religions. As we know, few Christian sects actually believe any more...and some Catholic clergy appear to be the cracks in that religion.
For us all-——

Howdy, everyone! This is the last week of our second quarter FReepathon and we’re running a bit behind. It would be great if we get to at least 94%! That means we need to raise another $4 or $5k in the next 4 days. Please get your donations in today and let’s get ‘er done! Way to go FReepers! Thank you all very much! God bless.
What a drama queen.
Now I finally understand why so many people convert to the Muslim religion. They have standards that many Christians do not uphold to anymore.
Right. Christians should be ashamed of themselves.
If CW2 starts, it will be. With the Muslims and queers. The Muslims will not give an inch on their faith.
“Christians should be ashamed of themselves.”
It’s evolved into a wishy washy religion with no firm principles. Christianity is to religion what the Republican party is to politics. Together they are bringing the nation down and feeling good about it.
I do not profess to be a Muslim supporter, but they do stand firm on their religious beliefs. The rats brought them in to help ruin the country. It could backfire immensely.
They DIDN’T BAN the homo flag. They are only permitting the American flag, the Michigan flag, city flags, and other national and the Prisoner of War flag to fly on city property.
Big difference.
Liberal alphabet persons should never accept a roof top dinner invitation with their neighbors.
LOL
The Muslims are often ready to kill and die for those standards where-as Christians often are constrained by their faith to act in such a manner. They avoid even mentioning our Lord’s command to his followers that after he left the scene that we should buy swords for self defense!
If Christ were alive today he wouldn’t be a Christian.
Mark Twain
Religion has been transformed into more of self philosophy to fit an agenda.
Kind of like what the left does with the Constitution.
