Muslims want tax-funded halal food in public schools
WDN ^ | March 16,2014 | PAMELA GELLER

The relentless push to Islamicize the public square, and in this case the public school, escalates in New York City. Fresh on the heels of Muslim school holidays comes this demand for halal food in the New York City public schools.

According to the well-coached children making the demand, the vegetarian option is not sufficient because “we don’t get the protein that we need.” Yet these kids looked hardly undernourished, and, frankly, if protein is your thing, then why not bring hard-boiled eggs to school or beef jerky? Because it’s not about the food, it’s about Islamic supremacism.

The New York City school system is 10 percent Muslim (if that). If food choice is so important to them, why not bring their own food? One young Muslima featured in a news story about the demand claims that not having halal food and having to eat peanut butter and jelly makes her “feel different.” But the fact is, she is choosing to be different. And her community is forcing the general population to conform to their ideology.

One parent said (with a straight face, no less): “As a parent, it is your duty to ensure your child does not go without food the whole day, and if that makes him weak and inattentive maybe he will lose interest in going to school.” You can’t make this stuff up. Now poor parenting is the lunch lady’s fault. Forgive me if I don’t buy the poor malnourished child propaganda. Growing up, there was never a hot lunch option in my public school, and we all did rather well. It’s just another way of imposing Islam on the secular marketplace.

Next thing we know, they’ll be blaming the lack of halal meat in the school for why their children go jihad.

FEBRUARY 4, 2014..Muslims pushed for New York City is moving to close school for two Muslim holidays and the Lunar New Year — but Mayor de Blasio isn’t so sure about the Hindu festival Diwali. Appearing on WNYC’s “Brian Lehrer Show” on Monday, the mayor said he hadn’t taken a position on whether Diwali, the festival of lights celebrated in India and other South Asian countries, should be a day off from school.

Wait, this the same public school that is forbidden to use the word “Christmas”? That cannot do the slightest act if it is motivated by a Christian belief?

THAT public school system?

Kowtowing to Islam is pure cowardice.

Oh Mr. Muslim, I will do whatever you ask if you don’t continue to be hostile towards me!

The Muzzies must be approaching the 20 % mark. Stage II of The Project. Its time to kick their leader to the curb before this goes one step farther.

Tea groups mounting an organized effort to get conservatives on school boards would not time misplaced. That is to take them over from within. Meaning hold a majority on them.

Then when libs sue, go on a non stop media/internet campaign telling the world that liberals are going to force school closure.

Just a thought.

I just found out a local scrap metal outfit that has bombarded Craigslist with ads to buy any scrap from batteries to copper is being run by a middle eastern Muslim. See we did not have such a place locally before,they just opened up recently, their offer prices are at least 30% lower than the big scrap yard 50 miles away the nearest. I scoped them out last week, this guy gave me bad vibes from the get go.

I trust my instincts and I will not patronize this business, I will also express my views upon this person to my conservative friends as well, to me it just looks like another cash for Islam scheme.

the halal crowd warmed up on England and now they’re trying their tactics here. We need to emphasize to our immigrants that we do celebrate diversity but we also expect conformity to the American way of life down to school lunches - we are not the Balkans or the -stans, we are America and we intend to preserve the American way of life, which does not include forcing an entire population to eat halal because of a few non-conformists who insist on pretending they’re in a different country than they are.

Nor will we give up hotdogs, sausage for breakfast at Dennys, bb pork ribs and pulled pork or pigs feet at the local smoke joint, or a hundred other non-halal gastronomic delights we are accustomed to, nor will we ban any such places because a few non-conformists don’t like the smell. Pass the frog legs, please, Louise.

Use to get fish sticks or mac & cheese every Friday. For the 12 years I was in the public school system, this was the menu for every Friday.

I see Muslim children in the public school cafeteria every day, scarfing down whatever. If they are that observant, let their moms pack them lunches. Why the heck should the NYC taxpayer be obliged to finance their lifestyle? If they are that observant, let their parents pay for private religious school, like the Jewish kids’ parents do. You don’t see a demand for kosher food in school, do you?

I remember in elementary school we had fish every Friday for the Catholic students. As far as I know, no one complained. When my kids were in elementary school, their music teacher was Jewish and at a Christmas program the kids sang the Dreidle (sp?) song. No one complained.

America was much better off without muslims and radical atheists.

"One parent said (with a straight face, no less): “As a parent, it is your duty to ensure your child does not go without food the whole day, and if that makes him weak and inattentive maybe he will lose interest in going to school.”

Isn't that a pretty good description of Ramadan?
