People should more worry about economy and jobs than sharia." sharia complacence banking isn't gonna help and if you haven't noticed, the economy is only getting worse which is why I feel the prez was wrong to back the mosque the way and when he did.

afroengineer: My mother practices Santería, she's not allow to practice it in my house; she respects that. While living in Chicago, there was an ordinance on how her group could practice - I supported that decision by the city. Almost all my family came from the Caribbean, to date, none, nada, has ever ever requested the US to change for them. I have never asked Japan to change for me..... is it such an out of the way request to ask others to do the same?
Sorry man but I might be seeing things, but I see a lot pushing for change tilting towards Islam/Shariah. If you don't believe me, go to Jersey, Queens, and numerous other places, come back and tell me iff you are down with it. I'm not. As ffor the tea party, there are black and Hispanic tea partiers, especially in NYC. There are Arabs in the tea party too... So I think you guys are wrong in painting thousands of people

many of the people in the above link are tea party members and there is a great support for leaving Islam in the UK to immigrate to the US as the UK is not safe for them.... I caught a few of these people last time in NYC a few weeks ago. You guys could at least hear their side of the story instead of your own selected media and then make an opinion.
Sheikh Maulana Abu Sayeed, president of the Islamic Sharia Council in Britain, it is not possible for rape to occur in marriage. He claims women falsify rape claims to try and obtain a divorce. If a woman is brutalized by her husband, he claims this is undesirable but an apology should suffice. Sayeed runs the largest network of Sharia courts in the UK." I guess many of you agree with him. Look at the last part Islamic Sharia Council in Britain" and they have pull and yet one poster claims they don't want to change a place.

how many groups have ties with CAIR, the Muslim Brother hood and what not. Or, are you all just wishing one side the best?

Checked and the nj case was overturned on appeal, because of course shariah law is not applicable in the us...." yeah, but that was on appeal.. the poiont that it was used should cause an alarm...still the pig likes the mud.

there have been several cases in the top news lately where shariah was applied, including a women in Newark accusing her husband of rape and domestic violence which was thrown out as the defendant's lawyer argued that shariah should be considered... Why do you guys approved of such acts? Pigs

he'll be way better than anyone the GOP or tea party can cough up." True, but you left out Dems too...
We need to stop voting for the lesser of two evils and start voting no confidence.

It sounds extremely corny to say it, but I think it can be proved mathematically that eventually this game has to end in peace" glad you have more faith than I do. who has to assimilate with who? My parents never asked the US for anything other than to allow them entry and they worked from there. Why must it be so different for Muslims? And as for your hate you claim, I think its more a defense mechanism. Just my op. Now that this guy is put away, and the Manhattan Islamic center has been relocated, and nobody is burning any holy books, maybe it is time to lay off moderate Islam and stop beating on them." I just looked, doesn't look like the center is going to be moved. And get off that crap that we are beating down moderate Muslims. I had not a single ounce of concern about Muslims/Arabs (I actually can pass for Arab btw). Nope, not even immediate after I found my work place in rubble and 800+ co workers vanished. But when I started hearing people like you jumping to conclusion and coming to the defense of Islam and every single honest question was called a stereotype, bigotry, you really pushed more people over to this side.

You have no idea how much your hate, in their mind, justifies what the extremists do." That works both ways man.
Live normal lives? I nor many of my friends weren't able to for a while. Well, how about this, come in and respect the place you enter. He was given a job, a good one too, he was granted citizenship, he was catered too. Don't give us that crap that in comparing him what happened to blacks and us. I find it disgusting. The hate as well as the propergander on for America has been there for a loooooooong time. He knew, even at the hype stage, of where he was coming. Personally, I think it was all part of a plan. > How many more times does NYC have to get bombed before idiots come to terms that there is a an enemy out there and we need to stop them from hurting us.
lastly, were you one of those blaming tea party people for the bomb before they caught this pig?

Aunty, While you're at, how about throwing your advice over to the other side.
Are you the type of person who shakes hands with the school yard bully before you throw down (or in your case "put up your dukes") Rules are to be followed, but when they work against you, what the hell is the point of them.

Your country INVADED another country. You treat that almost as if it never happened," We never invaded Pakistan, his home country. So, we are left with his religion.... did we invade that too? Funny, I thought 9-11 happened before the wars. I know Russia invaded Afghanistan, but don't seem to have too many Muslim terrorist actions (they know how to take care of the problem) I know for a personal fact that Iraq invaded Kuwait, but don't see too many Kuwaitis blowing things up in Iraq. My point: quit making up excuses and this guy is no one to praise.

“We are only Muslims trying to defend our religion, people, homes and land, but if you call us terrorists, then we are proud terrorists and we will keep on terrorizing you until you leave our lands and people at peace,” Pakistan national... we're not in Pakistan yet. We were no where near your place, in fact, it is us that help yous beat the Russians in a way, before 9-11. Sushi, fair enough?

Fanatics are fanatics. Timothy McVeigh was a Christian, wasn't he? And all these militias in the American South are going to make this lone wolf look like an angel when they start opposing the Federal government." Just in case you haven't heard, we zapped him....
Quit making excuses and face reality, even if AQ and their kind are small in number compared to the muslims you feel you know so much about, its still a threat. Now how about growing up and use that education you parents paid for and tell us how we move forward. This is, with out a doubt, going to happen again and again. FYI only since you don't believe/like the fact that their a war waged against the west.

Wealth is created by workers" No wealth is created by those who go out and focus and most of them to date were not big named school grads, they were/are from the rank and file. If you think about it, it is yous, the highly educated, advanced thought process, lillies who feel that a guy who keeps pushing shouldn't get what is his.

pls, enough with the "you don't understand socialism" my father, RIP, was part of the socialist movement in the US before most of yous were born. I might not know the entire encyclopedia definition of it, but quite a bit like 6 days pay for 5 days work" has been grilled in my head back then.
Look tkoind2, I hire people, they work, I pay them. Why must I go so far out of my way to go beyond the shop? yeah, some of those at the top of large corps make a lot, but most of them didn't start out that way.
If you really want to go with distribution the wealth - I ain't working.

I'm sensing several of you have never worked for a union..... You are aware that those union bosses bring home a lot and while we are on strike, barely living off chump change in stipends, they go home to their mansions.
Face it, unions are just another form of business and being in one makes you complicit in their corrupt ways.
