Obama wanted to systematically change America, well, keep electing people like Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib and it will happen.
But this change won’t be good for the real Americans!
Obama might be gone but his legacy lives on.
We all know that we are a country that is based on freedom and diversity but the left has gone too far! Everyone should express their religion as long as they don’t interfere with our way of living.
Culver City is the latest city that has to put up with the enormously loud Islamic call to prayer 5 times a day during the coronavirus lockdown This upset many of the non-Muslim residents of the area.
Los Angeles Times reported:
Outside the Culver City mosque, some pedestrians stopped in their tracks when they first heard the adhan, seemingly surprised. This was something new, and it was not altogether clear how it would be received — as with many things Muslim in the U.S.
But in Culver City, the call to prayer did not go unchallenged for long.
After four days, on May 18, the city’s police department revoked the amplified noise permit, citing people congregating at the mosque in violation of the county health order, as well as “numerous loud noise complaints from area residents.”
“We have had and will continue to have a great relationship with mosque leadership,” said Capt. Jason Sims with the Culver City Police Department. “We are certainly happy to help with facilitating any type of service that is not in violation of county health orders.”
Three days later, the city changed course again, reinstating the permit on the condition that the mosque lower the volume.
Meanwhile, on the Nextdoor social networking app, debates raged between neighbors.

This really sounds like we are in the Middle East and not in the United States of America.
Personally I can confirm that it sounds EXACTLY like Cairo – I was staying in a hotel there back in 1997 and that’s JUST what it sounded like.
Islam is not a religion, it is a theocracy, a government and a religion combined. It should be outlawed in the United States.
Shoot the speakers.
Hey Jack!
Which way's Mecca?
Can I ask a stupid question?
Can’t Muslims just go pray at the appointed time, without having a noisy call to prayer being broadcast?
Can’t Muslims go to their mosques on Friday at the appointed time, without being summoned in this manner?
Why do Muslims feel the need to publicly loudly broadcast this, in a country in which they are a small minority?
They can get the prayer notification on their phone. No need for loud speakers.

Noise violations are typically cut and dried. A certain level of decibels is a violation beyond one’s property line.
The limit is usually around 85-90 decibels.
Especially where they now have these newfangled things called “watches”. Let’s admit that the call is a relic of the middle ages, much as the Christian church bells were. Just as loud church bells are no longer necessary to call people to church, so the Muslim call is also no longer necessary. There should be apps for that.
OMG, these girls took the message in a different direction didn’t they???
Yes, I’m sure it’s a relic of a previous era.
Maybe Muslims want to let everyone know they are here, maybe hoping they will get some converts, who didn’t know there was a Muslim community in their town????
It’s called jihad. One step at a time.
I thought we no longer had church bells bc they bothered people. !!
The public call to prayer was appropriate for all-Muslim societies in which the average person had no way of keeping accurate time. In a multi-religious society with readily available ways of keeping time, there is no need at all for a blaring call to prayer. It is a tool of intimidation and supremacy.
I haven’t heard church bells in a long time. I don’t know if its because they are outlawed (sound ordinances) or because churches think they are intrusive and don’t want to offend people. Or maybe I just don’t notice them.
I think a good response would be to drive a very loud boom-car with some nice all-American rap right by the mosque about 20 minutes after each call to prayer, and sort of circle the place for 5 minutes.
The first Amendment doesn’t permit the government to favor one religion over another, or choose which speech is OK and what’s not. If the Muz have the right to play their sounds loud enough to be heard for blocks, so do fans of other sounds, including gangsta rap, heavy metal, reggae, punk rock, and opera.
But in my experience only the rap fans have full on sonice-assault capable boom cars. The bass along can kill all the rodents for a solid block. Normally these things are a real nuisance, but now... turn it up!
Keep ALLOWING the importation of their people and they will keep electing them.
That's the truth.
“I thought we no longer had church bells bc they bothered people. !!”
I have a Catholic church with a bell right across the street from my house. Passing kids will ring it every once in a while. It’s outside and reachable.
Islam is a totalitarian political idea. The loudly played call-to-prayer is a controlling mechanism and a blunt reminder that all shall kneel to political islam else pay the price.
If we allow the call to prayer in the US, we are giving into political, totalitarian islam.
