The City Council of Hamtramck, Michigan approved an amendment to the city's noise ordinance to allow the Muslim call to prayer over loudspeakers 5 times daily, from 6 a.m. - 10 p.m. The new ordinance takes effect May 26. Nonie Darwish writes the following:

Zimdog thinks that we should co exist with the terrorists all holding hands and singing kumbaya while "celebrating" our differences...like the leftists said about the Soviet communists.

How quickly we forget.

Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, won't need yours or anyone elses permission to be heard when he returns. And he won't require a PA system. LOL!

The Hell I do!

If you are putting words in my mouth, I'll consider it an open invitation for me to do the same to you : You and Mr La Bamba or whatever think we should end terrorism by becoming terrorists.

Wasn't that the Rosenbergs' logic for selling nuclear secrets to the Soviets? If we're the same, then we'll have peace?

I have a suggestion for you. Remove that large chip from your shoulder and your posture should correct itself.

"I think it is time for all right minded citizens of this country to descend on that town and let America know what's going on. To me, this is the biggest National story of the year. I don't know how you all feel, but that's how I feel."

I think you are right!!! This is the kind of story that would shock the senses. Perhaps one of us, or even all of us could call Rush's or Hannity's attention to this. Try to make political hay here.

Can't the Arabs remember to pray 5 times a day?

Maybe they could issue Arab PDA's announce prayer time and repeat the prayers....headset optional.

Possible good product for QVC and Al Jezeera TV?

Anyone know what the policy is if someone employs an Arab. Do they get prayer time plus Arab and Federal Holidays?


Heh, myself, being an amateur radio buff and electronics nut in general, I would have preferred this solution. The FCC is now allowing low powered neighborhood FM stations to broadcast, sort of like a community station. Well, why don't the mosque get an FCC license, buy a 10 watt FM transmitter, and broadcast the call to prayer. The Moslems could leave an FM radio on with the frequency dial set to that station and when it comes time to prayer, they can broadcast it over FM radio instead of 1500 decibels over the neighborhood to wake up people and shake their fillings out.

I think a similar idea was used in the UK during the Blitz where the people set their radios onto a station broadcasting just the carrier signal (just broadcasting a silent signal) and when the bombers were coming then the warning would be broadcast. I think Israel has a similar system too.

In Singapore and Malaysia, they have little small beepers - that you can carry that beep or vibrate, letting you know it is time to pray.

yep they're dead.

i'm osrry you're so "offended", but it's not my fault that you have the same deadly philosophy as terrorists.

i'm doing my part to fight terrorism, here and in the real world.

if you can't see that, i'll have to keep fighting your ideas.
