Florida Pastor Terry Jones, according to a press release from his office, will appear in Dearborn Mi this Saturday April 7 to protest the apparent sharia law creeping into the culture of that area. The press release reads in part: Islam is the greatest threat to our national security. The Muslim community refuses to integrate, instead they demand and push their religion, their rituals, upon us and upon our society.
Dearborn is a prime example of this along with many others around the nation. Below is a list of examples of how the Muslim community is trying to push their agenda upon us with the help of organizations such as CAIR and MSA, with the help of political correctness, with the help of people who are unwilling to actually take a stand. As Islam continues to push its agenda using threats, parts of America are beginning to give in. Changes are being made at the expense of taxpayers.
The special menus that are being provided at schools in Dearborn are costing taxpayers $228,000 every year. The special foot washing basins that are being installed in airports around America are costing as much as $100,00 each. This must be stopped. This cannot be tolerated. America how long will you allow yourself to be abused by the Muslim community? We, at Stand Up America Now, have in the past voiced our disagreement and disgust with these and many other issues. We shall continue.
On April 7, we will be in Dearborn, Michigan in front of the Islamic Center of America to take a stand for America.
1. During the month of August which is Ramadan (a month of fasting and prayer), Fordson High School holds football practices from midnight to 4am in order to satisfy the religious requirements of Islam.
2. 11 years ago Dearborn schools introduced a pilot program offering halal meats at a school building. Today, the program has grown— with more than half of Dearborn’s 32 schools offering halal options for Muslim students. In Dearborn Public Schools, some schools have Arab-American student populations of 90 percent or more.
Providing a halal menu in Dearborn does incur additional cost. Halal meats are 30 percent more expensive than typical meat. The district established a contract with a Dearborn grocer to provide halal meat, costing taxpayers $228,000.
Dearborn schools prepare five different menus each day.
1. normal menu
2. halal menu
3. halal without nuts
4. partial halal
5. peanut free
Dearborn's halal meals also means more money spent on staff to prepare, organize and store the meals.
3. Footbaths in State-Funded Colleges
University of Michigan in Dearborn installed two foot baths which cost taxpayers $100,000.
Minneapolis Community and Technical College has a policy that “strictly prohibits religious displays”, and have warned against any public display that may promote any particular religion. The college received threats saying the college will be bombed if we refuse to build this facility. The college used taxpayer funds to install facilities for Muslim ritual foot-washing.
George Washington University in Washington D.C., Boston University and University of Toledo in Ohio, Eastern Michigan University have installed foot baths.
4. Footbaths in Airports
The Indianapolis Airport and KCI Airport in Kansas City, Missouri.
The Kansas City International Airport added several foot-washing basins in restrooms to accommodate a growing number of Muslim taxicab drivers. There are approximately 250 taxicab drivers operating at KCI Airport in Missouri, one of the largest airports in the U.S. Approximately 70 percent of the drivers are of Middle Eastern heritage and practice Islam.
Sky Harbor Airport in Phoenix provides prayer rugs and footbaths.
5. Muslims demand prayer breaks and other privileges of privately owned companies.
2008 ~ JBS Swift & Co. in Greeley, Colorado 100 Somali Muslim workers were fired after they did not report to work in protest of Swift's refusal to give them a prayer break during the holy month of Ramadan. The company was sued by the EEOC for religious discrimination.
2008 ~ approximately 250 Somalian Muslim workers at the Tyson, Inc. Shelbyville, Tennessee plant demanded that the Islamic holiday Eid al-Fitr be added as a paid holiday while Labor Day was removed as a paid holiday.
2008 ~ A Muslim teacher in suburban Chicago, who had been employed less than one year, requested three weeks of unpaid leave to go on a Hajj to Mecca, Saudi Arabia . Her request was denied because it did not meet the requirements of the union contract which gave uniform standards for leave that applied to all employees. The teacher then quit her job and filed a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The United States Department of Justice filed a complaint on behalf of the teacher which accused the school district of violating the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The school board was ordered to pay the teacher $75,000 to cover lost back pay, compensatory damages, and court costs.
Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, employers cannot deny a "reasonable" religious accommodation request as long as it does not pose an undue hardship, according to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
2011 ~ In Seattle, Washington, 35 Hertz-Rent-A-Car employees demanded to be paid for prayer breaks. Hertz had already allowed the prayer breaks with pay until the Muslim workers began taking advantage of the company's generosity and did not return to work in a timely fashion.
2011 ~ The Cargill meat packing plant in Fort Morgan, Colorado produces 4 million pounds of beef daily and accommodates the vast majority of daily prayer requests by the roughly 500 Muslim employees. Cargill created two large gender-segregated reflection rooms with prayer rugs for Muslims to fulfill their daily prayer routine while at work. The company even sought the advice of Somali leaders to be certian that the workers' needs were being met. Muslims pray five times a day at times that are determined by the sun's position. This is an extreme hardship for companies with many Muslim workers. Federal workplace-discrimination complaints filed by Muslims shot up in 2009 and 2010, to almost 800 each year according to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
2011 ~ 22 Islamic workers and Dianne's Gourmet Desserts, a Le Center, Minnesota, subsidiary of H.J. Heinz Co.'s foodservice operations claim they were fired and forcibly removed from the premises for saying their Friday evening prayers. The company had established new break times and the Friday evening prayers did not concide with the Islamic prayer times. Le Center has two prayer rooms for employees where the workers were "to take prayer breaks as a special accommodation to the requirements of their faith.
Muslim scholars agree that obligatory prayers can be made up at a later time. If an employee is not able to take a break for prayer times, then the prayers can be made up at a later time.
The Muslim Student Association of America has created it's Political Action Task Force after several MSA chapters did not react adequately enough, according to the MSA, to U.S. and international policital situations. The MSA includes leaders such as Anwar al-Awlaki, the al Qaeda cleric linked to terror plots from Fort Hood to Times Square and others, Omar Hammami, a leader of the al-Shabaab terrorist group in Somalia, Abdurahman Alamoudi, who was national president of the MSA during the 1980s, was al Qaeda's top fundraiser in America and is currently serving a 23-year prison sentence, Ramy Zamzam before convicted in Pakistan for attempting to join the Taliban and kill American troops. The MSA is well-known as an "incubator" of Islamic radicalism and has deep roots in the Muslim Brotherhood whose goal is to establish Islamic Sharia worldwide.
According to the MSA's Political Action Task Force (PATF) section on the University of Michigan ~ Dearborn's web site, it declares to stage rallies, protests, and teach-ins to spearhead a united political movement.
