FL Official 'Regrets' Mosque Comments

City commissioner will take part in Muslim town hall meeting

The Orlando chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-Orlando) today thanked a local official who expressed regret for recent comments about U.S. mosques that some Muslims found offensive.

At a recent City of Sanford planning meeting, Commissioner Randy Jones said: "I mean it might be un-politically correct, but I don't care. . .The fact of the matter is, I don't think you will get a lot of takers on residential [development] next to a mosque just because of what's going on worldwide."

In response to Jones' statement, CAIR-Orlando sent a letter to the commissioner stating in part:

". . .because your comments were made in an official capacity, it may sanction the view that Muslims should be isolated from community life based on tragic conflicts happening overseas. . .Let us work toward mutual understanding and a solution to the misconception you raised, that tragic conflicts which occur overseas must negatively impact an otherwise positive and productive relationship at home."

Oh barf. At its core, Randy Jones was right. Who wants to live next to a mosque? What developer would be nutty enough to build next to a mosque?

.The fact of the matter is, I don’t think you will get a lot of takers on residential [development] next to a mosque just because of what’s going on worldwide.”



The Muslems answered back;
because your comments were made in an official capacity, it may sanction the view that Muslims should be isolated from community life based on tragic conflicts happening overseas. .

And I say; Or maybe not...it just depends on how hard you have to hunt for something to get angry about. I get so tired of this victimhood routine.

Who gives a fat fart what CAIR thinks or feels. For the less than 1000 members of CAIR, if you don’t like what is being said, go to the Middle East where you can live in the environment they want.

CAIR, America's largest Muslim civil liberties group, has 33 offices and chapters nationwide and in Canada.

Wow! Each member has his own office. Neat.

Damn, at this rate, just give ‘em the country already, instead of prolonging the agony. They and the illegal immigrants can fight it out between themselves. I am sick to everlasting death of officials NEVER having the spine to stand up to these people! Christians are arrested for passing out tracts on a public street, while the terrorists(and I believe almost all of them are at least sympathisers, or they’d be more interested in denouncing terrorism than constantly looking for ways to put America on the defensive and weakening and hamstringing us) get freakin prayer breaks at work! I DO hate them, who let these people come in to DESTROY this country, and why won’t ANYone credible stand up to them??!!!

Muslims would bring down the property values in Hell too. They'd also probably piss and moan about how mistreated they are there as well.

No muslim will ever be my countryman. I'll never trust one of them.

"expatguy - you were right long knives came out"

I keep hearing how Americans are going to fight back, but I don't see it.

I'm afraid that when the time does come to fight back that most Americans won't be able to.

There was once a time when I used to ask myself why the Jews never fought back against the Nazis when their freedoms were slowly eroding away. When the day came to walk into the gas chambers they went in voluntarily without even bothering to fight.

I'm only starting to understand now.

Have faith, there are some GREAT things happening in our nation. There are some things which take time. cair will be taken care of, in due time. cair is currently ‘named’ in a lawsuit involving terrorism. The case is moving through the courts. I will be patient, as will most Americans, unless another attack comes. Then I will take all bets off the table on American citizens being patient. Right now, let cair be stupid, and wallow in their funk, as well as those who apologize to cair.

btw cair, I don't care! No offense intended toward you....

Please believe, GREAT things are taking place in America. America and Americans are not asleep, as the media would have one believe. Leaders occupy every corner of America. The Leaders of America are not necessarily in D.C., but this fact does not matter. Americans take the lead every day in all walks of life. Have Faith, FRiends, cair’s time is about up. I truly believe America’s citizens are in charge and America will Win this War, in spite of some of the politicians.

Orlando FL Official Apologises to CAIR

"I'm so terribly sorry that nobody wants to live next to you."

Actually, as usual, probably 90% of the people going to this mosque are normal decent family oriented folks who hate the head-choppers as much as I do. Too bad the other 10% have to ruin it for everyone.

I’ve always believed that you can discriminate against people for anything except how they are born. I always vote Republican but I think protecting religion, which is a belief system, from any assault politically, is foolishness and may well be the end for all of us.

“No muslim will ever be my countryman. I’ll never trust one of them.”

Unfortunately not enough of our fellow Americans agree with you. But, I do.

I'm not a vindictive or hateful man, and I'm not one to say things like that flippantly.

The people who speak for that culture, when not playing the "annointed political victim" game in this country really make no bones about what their ultimate goal is, and how they intend to achieve it.

I fail to see any evidence that their so-called moderates will not fall in behind the radicals, nor do I think that their radical doctrines will not eventually be adopted by muslim populations not yet radicalized (it's not a culture that seems to allow independent thinking about anything).

Neither do I believe most of the snow-jobs we get from our own government regarding them. I believe that Western leaders are not only paralyzed by PC, they are blinded by it as well.

One need only look anywhere in the world where they have migrated to in large numbers to see that all they bring with them is tyranny, filth, ignorance and violence. One can't help but notice how brazenly they demand every country they infest to subordinate their own cultures to accommodate Islam.

Every time I hear that "Huddled Masses" song and dance with regard to muslims, I can't help remembering a muslim sergeant in the 101st Airborne throwing grenades into the tents of fellow soldiers.

My wariness of muslims is much like the wariness I would have of a venemous snake, and for the same reasons. I know that however gently I handled it, no matter how I caressed it and tried to gentle it's nature, I'll very likely (and deservedly) be bitten.
