Gotta love that way of life. If democracy means something they don’t like, it’s discrimination. If discrimination means something they like, it’s democracy.

[Patrick1]

What the LA Times call discrimination I would call self-defense.

[HiTech RedNeck]

It's also perverse to complain that Muslims are unwilling to embrace the larger society and then make acceptance of second-class status the price of their assimilation.

Guess they don't like the dhimmi shoe when it's on the other foot eh.

[FlyingEagle]

The ban is not religious discrimination, it is a reasonable restriction on a violent cult, preventing it from erecting unsightly monuments to its deadly creed.

We should demand the same in the USA.

[j-damn]

*Integrating Islamic immigrants has proved to be a multifaceted challenge for European nations unaccustomed to religious and cultural diversity.*

F*ck you, LA Times. Try being “diverse” in the Islamic sh*t holes these “immigrants” came from.

[umgud]

No matter what we do for or to the muslims, at the end of the day, we are still infidels.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Flying airliners into skyscrapers is “pure discrimination”.
The damned muslims are the worst discriminators on the planet and they aren’t going to change!

[FormerACLUmember]

The ban is NOT on mosques. Build all the mosques you want.

The ban in on MINARETS: Gigantic towers out of which pre-recorded prayers are obnoxiously blasted at a million decibals at all hours.

Minarets are a nightmare to people living within ear range.

[Tribune7]

Wonder how they feel about the ban on churches in Saudi Arabia?

[jiggyboy]

The old response: “Discrimination? Us? Oh no, we love multiculturalism, diversity is our strength, please let us throw a couple of million dollars into a fireplace called ‘diversity training’ to show you that we aren’t as bad as you say we are.”

The old response: “Yeah it’s discriminatory. And...?”

Get used to it, LAT and you other guilt-blackmailers. We’re tired of your crap.

[BipolarBob]

I never understood the great love affair with diversity. Unity is something to believe in as well as survival, but diversity? Other cultures need to assimilate into the host country or that country should have the right to deport their sorry posteriors elsewhere. That is a countrys sovereign right.

[highlander_UW]

There are tourist towns in my home state that require all buildings to have an outward appearance of a german or swiss alpine building...is that also racist and discriminatory?

[Psycho_Bunny]

As if the LA Times is credible.

[skeeter]

I hate these anti-intellectual liberals.

[Senator Goldwater]

The LA Times doesn’t like Swiss architecture?

[Arkinsaw]

We have historic districts. To preserve the character of those districts we prevent the construction of modern things. If a Mega-Church wanted to establish a building in one of these areas it would be denied because it does not fit with the cultural background of the area that we seek to preserve.

Switzerland is similar to a historic district. It has a certain cultural presence and character that in itself is worth preserving. Minarets of a mosque are a violence to that character.....in many places in Switzerland a Wal-Mart or a big McDonald's sign would similarly be inappropriate.

It only appears discriminatory and hateful if you refuse to take that into account.

[lacrew]

I missed their editorial on religious discrimination in Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Syria, etc.

[Nervous Tick]

No one signed their name as author to this LA Slimes editorial.

Why am I not surprised...

[Big Horn]

Would I let a blood thirsty enemy build a fort in my town? I don’t think so.

[blueplum]

The LA times has no problem decrying Christian crosses in the greater LA basin, (or out in the middle of the Mohave Desert) nor do they have problems with the ban on Christian churches ringing church bells

hypocrites
