Was she wearing anything??

You gotta shake your money maker...

In my religion, the Founder taught us that we should pray in secret, that it was hypocritical to pray in front of people to act pious, that if we did this, our Father would reward us in secret. I think my religion is better.

Wardeh Sultan was praying in front of another member's locker

If this goes anywhere in the court system one could only wonder where muslims will pray next? Perhaps in a church parking lot on a Sunday?

Many locker rooms have 2 lockers in one space, one above the other.

According to Jodi Berry, executive director of Fitness USA, Wardeh Sultan was praying in front of another member’s locker when the member wanted access to her belongings inside the locker. The inconvenienced patron tried to interrupt Ms. Sultan, but she remained prostrate in front of the locker and an altercation ensued. A manager was called into the locker room to intervene.

...still probing our freedoms for weaknesses. I think the inconvenienced patron should have ensured that she remained prostrate on the floor for a few hours at least.

The incident is yet another example of special treatment Muslims are increasingly demanding nationwide. Last April, at the Lincoln Park, Mich. Fitness USA location, 200 Muslim women signed a petition demanding separate workout times for men and women, or, at minimum, installation of a divider between the men’s and women’s gym sections. A screen was eventually erected to obstruct the view of the women’s facilities. Another Fitness USA facility recently revised a dress code to allow Muslim women to wear more modest dress while exercising.

Sorry this is America, and we don't subscribe to Sharia Law; start burning 9,000 cars and see what happens here. I'm dead serious.

Where will this intimidation and shakedown of Americans and American institutions end?

When we grow a collective spine and declare the end.

Some individuals do anything for attention.

they were detained and questioned because they had been praying in the Minneapolis airport, loudly invoking Allah’s name and uttering anti-American statements.

They were detained and questioned because they took seats to which they were not assigned, controlling all aircraft exits, and requested seat belt extenders which they did not attach.

Bullys will push and push, to try to get as much as they can from you voluntarily. Bullys need to be slapped down, so that they know where the boundries lie. Muslims are bullys.

Let's test America's security, and foment some attack based on intelligence gleaned.

You have to respect her (the other patron), but she does not have to respect your god.”

You know, that's a pretty good summation.

[asp1]

Ms. Levy asks some very thought provoking questions and gives a great deal of information that I would bet 99.9% of the American people are unaware of. This recent flood of incidents should have us all mounting some sort of defense, but most people that I talk to give me the PC answer "We must respect all religions and those who come here to live in freedom," or various other forms of that statement. We are drowning and most Americans haven't noticed the water yet. I also find it interesting that they are sending the women out to do a lot of this stuff. Are they checking to see if chivalry is dead?

I said "enough" a long time ago.

"but she remained prostrate in front of the locker"

Potential fire hazard.
