You break down so that you can build back up.

Follow the tuition money payments. That gives the answer to this issue.

Good. It’s about time civilization started pushing back against Islam.

I hope they stand strong. I expect they will get flak.

Why not simply say that a "uniform" means uniform. Wearing a uniform means no personalization.

Uniform = One form.

I guess I don’t understand certain things.

How could a Muslim girl be going to a place like The Citadel in the first place??? Are Muslim girls allowed to attend college, attend a military academy college such as The Citadel??

First, you admit the (so-called) “Moderate Muslims”.

Then they start making demands after demands.

And here we go.....

Hold the line.
The Islamic hordes are trying to slowly erode our principles so they can weaken our resolve and then take us over.
They are the non-fictional “Borg”.
Hold the line. Hold your values. Say no to Islamic ways in America.
If they want Islam, let them go back to it, not build it here.

I wonder if they’ll be forced to change their ruling, you know, to realize we’re in full surrender mode and quit dreaming

Uh, infiltration, I should think. Wanting to wear a hijab at the citadel? That’s not so much ‘wanting to go to the Citadel’ as it is ‘wanting the citadel to bow to the muslim’

That graphic should be sent to the NOW gang and every person who supports Islam on daily/weekly basis. It says it all.

Thank you. It's a keeper.

People that do this are activists. In this case, doing Obamas bidding. Of all 50 states, he really hates South Carolina most. So racist!

She will get her wish, eventually. Mark my words. Muzzies are taking over America.
