Swiss Ban Muslim Minaret Construction

"If folks believe what this article says then the vote is understandable."

Problem is, what the article says is bullshit. Minarets are not a "political symbol" or a symbol of segregation and Islamic supremacy.

"Muslims have no right to introduce Sharia law into any sane society. Muslims need to integrate into the societies they have entered. If they don't want to integrate and add something to that society they need to just stay the hell in the hell holes they come from."

Typically, immigrants do not integrate into the society they enter. Not just Muslims. Usually the descendants of those immigrants - children, grandchildren, etc - integrate, albeit slowly. Should Hispanics or Armenians leave too? Of course, they believe in the handsome white God, not the smelly brown God. *sarcasm*

"We are well on our way to a true 'holy' war if Islam continues to try to take over the world. Folks are not going to stand for it......... They are becoming VERY concerned by what they are seeing."

So we should strip Muslims of their civil rights? Maybe put them into camps or something?

"And, Morgan, your quoting the Constitution is pretty funny. Religion is America has been stifled for years Freedom of speech has fallen by the wayside if the speech is deemed politically incorrect; the government tells us every single day what we can say and not say. We have the right to peaceful assembly, if the Powers That Be allow us a permit, and I would like to see Muslims petition the government to allow
Sharia law."

Huh?

"As I said, I can only hope America has the sense to reign in Islam before we're going through the things that are happening in Europe. Muslims want to take over the world, Morgan, and if you can't see that then you are blind. How will you like it when you live under Sharia law?"

The Nazis did a good job of "reigning in" the Jews and stopping them from taking over the world. Are you suggesting we copy their strategy?

I'm obviously being sarcastic here. Muslims are not plotting to take over the world. In the early 20th Century, it was thought that Jews were taking over the world. Ever hear of the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion?

And I take offense to you calling me "blind."

this sort of law may sound OK at first, but wouldn't it set precedent for Atheists later to prohibit the display of crosses...just to be "fair"?

Fear is a weapon of mass destruction.....

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights:
Article 18
"Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance."

Did I miss something? Did Switzerland drop out of the UN?

This is great news and combined with the French banning Moslem dress at least the countries of the EU understand the threat to our western way of life and the need to protect it! Odumbo just doesn't get it!

I can only hope America will be as smart when the time comes........

A good start.
