Hamtramck, Michigan -- seeking facts (vanity, I apologise!)

Having a debate with a friend, a fairly Leftist friend, who is of course quite anti-Christian but, curiously, pro-Islamic.

Would anyone be kind enough to provide specifics on the infilration of Islam into the city of Hamtramck?

Many thanks in advance, and I do apologise for the vanity post.

[SAJ]

Would like to become more informed on this subject, esp about the loudspeaker ''call to prayer'' 5 times a day, plus any other incursions of Islam into what used to be a fine American city. Thanks!

[SAJ]

Rats! I meant to post this in 'Chat'.

Could you please place it there? Thanks! (muttering at self...)

[iowamark]

Hamtramck a fine American city? That’s a joke, right?

[SAJ]

Note the usage ''used to be''. Fair enough?

FReegards!

Get out now before he borrows a lot of money and never pays it back.

Would like to become more informed on this subject,...

For a second there, I thought you said, "Would like to become more inflamed on this subject,..." Hey, I'm there, dude. If I ever carry out my much-planned personal call-to-prayer investigation, I'll be sure to post.

Sorry, Berlin. You’ve lost me with your post. Borrows money? Please explain further.

"Hamtramck"

I thought Islams couldn't have anything to do with Hamtrack.

Hamtramck once upon a time was a charming Polish community with little neighbor bar/restaurant right on the corner of a neighborhood block it was a very family oriented type town.

LAW OF THE LAND
Will you wake up to Islamic prayer call?
U.S. Muslims liken loudspeakers on mosques to church bells

A holy war of sorts is heating up in a Detroit suburb, where members of the local Muslim community want loudspeakers on mosques to announce the Islamic call to prayer five times each day.

But the idea is running into opposition from other residents of Hamtramck, Mich., many of whom are Christian, who think the prayer calls as early as 6 a.m. and as late as 10 p.m. would be disruptive.

I for one am amazed that Hamtramck would convert to Islam. Do you remember which country saved Vienna and central Europe from Islam in 1683?

There is no mystery as to why liberals are pro Islam: they don’t want to die.
