Kareem Abdul-Jabbar: Kim Davis Is Not a Patriot
Time Magazine ^ | September 7, 2015 | Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

The gathering of Davis’ supporters and their anti-American signs are no different from the “Death to America” rallies we see in some foreign countries.

The martyr business in America is booming. It’s a growth industry, like yoga pants, prisons and celebrity nip-slip sites. Caterers, cake-makers, pizza shops, hobby stores and others are publicly throwing themselves on the righteous sword of spiritual indignation—but only when there are media cameras nearby to record their stirring sacrifice.

On Sunday, around 300 supporters gathered outside the jail where Kim Davis, the Kentucky clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, is being held. They waved signs like “Kim Davis for President” and “We Ought to Obey God Rather Than Men.” The crowd in itself is not newsworthy—you can get 300 people to support pretty much anything (in England’s 2001 census, almost 400,000 people stated their religious preference as Jedi). What makes this situation especially significant is that also offering their support to Davis were presidential candidates Mike Huckabee, Gov. Bobby Jindal, Gov. Scott Walker, Sen. Rand Paul and Sen.

Says Ferdinand Lewis Alcindor with an Arab sounding name because he thinks his ancestors having been muslims means he should in order to throw off being an American.

Did I miss something, when did she say she was following her faith as a patriotic act?

Gee kind of like sport stars and so called celebrities being treated as if their opinion is important or carries more weight than anyone else. My opinion is that you are an opinionated ass, and that your opinion is printed and reported as if it mattered more than John Q Public is an insult to everyday Americans, go read your Quran muttonhead, as if muslims have any love for queers!

He’s the one Pam Grier wouldn’t marry because she refused to submit to Islam

Can you imagine making a 23yo Pam Grier dress modestly and occasionally wear a burka?

Once the U.S. Supreme Court decides whether or not a law is constitutional, then that’s the law of the land until the Constitution is amended.

So he supports Dred Scott and Jim Crow?

And the Supreme Court false gods ignore legal precedence in their decree establishing the construct of same sex marriage.
