Enough already! First muslim cab drivers in Minneapolis won’t pick up fares with people
carrying alcohol, or people with service dogs. Now they want special facilities for foot
washing? First they come here to murder us and now we’re all supposed feel some empathy
for their wants. I’m sure Mecca has lots of foot washing facilities. Let them go back there.
Sooner or later people need to realize this religon is just the world’s largest murder
cult.

[Okay, bottom line.
See, the moon worshippers get their foot washing basins installed because they
have frightened the crap out of spineless people who are cowards.
That is why it is called, â€œterrorismâ€.
They kill, you decide.]

What appears to be a simple, irrefutable syllogism reveals itself to be
otherwise.
Muslims aren’t “moon worshippers” any more than you worship wooden crosses.
(Is it the cross you worship, or what it symbolizes?) Also, there’s the
assumption that the basins are a religious, and not a hygienic, request. Thirdly,
seeing a request from a moderate group of Muslims as reasonable does not equate to spineless
cowtowing to radical Islamists.
Are all special interest groups who request something of authority terrorists
simply because they bring what pressure they can to bear (short of violence)?
Of course not. Your use of the term “terrorist” is indecent and unfair.
Not all people from the middle east are Arabs–not all are Muslims–not all
are radical fundamentalists-and not all are killers.
Jeez–could you paint with a broader, more simplistic brush? I don’t thknk so.

Jeff–

That particular person has been persona non-posta at this site for quite some time. He offers nothing but vomit here, no substance. As was the case here, sometimes his composed pus oozes through, but is immediately expunged regardless of the content.

Please don’t imply that I or anyone else on this site is simply shy to blog combat. You know that is not true. If it were true, you think anything you post here would remain?

Think before you imply Jeff. You know better than that. You and I have gone a few rounds before and I have never eliminated your contributions because you actually bring something to the game and you remain an honest player. Therefore, you stay, MeatSlap goes. Simple formula.

Islam is a dangerous , violent , repressive. primitive and hateful alien subculture .
These lunatics are a menace to any civilized nation
All muslims and every trace of their evil should be immediatly deported – en masse – from the USA
They are a deadly subversive threat ….and at the same time contribute nothing of tangible value to America (or any other civilized country )
Unless there is prompt and drastic action to evict these 9th century Psychopaths back to their sand dunes and camels , a nightmare will unfold
Islam is a worse spectre than the 3rd Reich , Imperial Japan and the USSR comnbined !

Talk about your disengenuous arguments, here are some fine examples up above.

Though his presentation may have been inartful, his point is clear and easy to understand in the context of his entire quote, which you chose to cut down in order to affirm your own pretext.

I only cut it for the sake of brevity. I stand by my reasoning even in the face of the entire quote.

The cabbies made a request and the airport decided it was reasonable and will grant the request. If members of another religion made a similarly reasonable request and are denied, your point about favoritism would be valid.

What Jeff, would you say if an airport decided to spend taxpayer money to be directed to another religionâ€™s demands?

That’s a fair point. Is it taxpayer money? The article doesn’t say. If so, I would object on those grounds. Though from that perspective, I’d probably have to object to the whole chapel.

Since I live in Kansas I feel it necessary to point out that Kansas City International airport is in MISSOURI. So blame those folks in Misery as we call it… not Kansas.
On the other hand in Kansas we overode Governor Sebelius’ veto to protect the 2nd ammendment the other day.

Is it going to be a hate crime the first time a kid mistakes a foot bath for a urinal?
