The Detroit chapter of the ACLU has scrambled to find a way to recuse itself from the matter, claiming that the footbaths qualify as secular since they could be used by non-Muslims...

“Dearborn, Michigan, a city with one of the highest Muslim”

What is the un-employment rate of muslim countries vs this arm pit area of Michigan? Have they destroyed it like their own lands?

motivated primarily "by health and safety" because some students didn't like washing their hands in the sinks after others students had washed their feet.

Well, hey, how about you just don't wash your feet in the sink????

this is like the ACLU saying Nativity scenes are religious at Christmas but Menorah displays are just history of the time period.

(ie a scene depicting christs birth on his birth day is not a historical reference.)

You’ve REALLY got to wonder whether there are Swiss bank accounts accessed by these ACLU lawyers which are regularly topped up by either the Iranians or the Saudis. They must be on the Muzzie payroll, it defies any other explanation. For instance, I’ve never seen a bouncer guarding a church door requesting Catholic membership cards. Aren’t these secular institutions also using ACLU “logic”?

One would hope that they didn’t have a sign saying Muslims Only” and that anyone could wash their feet in the foot bath.

"....recently refitted several school bathrooms to include small footbaths in the corner--an accommodation for Muslim students who must perform ritual washing as part of their daily observance....[sic]"

I've covered this story from numerous different angles. A great place to start reading would be here - and enjoy the video as well.

Further, the ACLU explains, the university's decision to take on the $25,000 expense was motivated primarily "by health and safety" because some students didn't like washing their hands in the sinks after others students had washed their feet.

Which is worse?:

1.Paying for the foot baths
2. Everyone having to wash their hands where other people wash their feet plus dealing with the additional germs spread because no one wants to wash their hands.

Hard to say.

On a related note, when the new library was built in Seattle, a newspaper article quoted (non-Muslim) homeless people who were saying that the new library bathroom sinks would be a great place for them to wash their feet.

Could be worse. Imagine if you were required to wash your privates rather than your feet. On second thought, dont.

Hopefully, one of these days, we will be able to see the funding from the Opecker thugs to the ACLU which has set up America a playground for Islamofascist thugs.

If a free Iraq survives all of the bs, the ACLU execs just might find themselves whisked away to Iraq to be tried for war crimes against innocent Iraqis.

So the logic is this, “non-muslims can use the footbaths too.”

But prayer in school or freedom to not pray in school is prohibited.

Am I missing something again?

Given that so many aclu lawyers are Jewish, this raises the term “useful idiot” to a new level.

This began with the prayer stations in Giants Stadium. This is a slippery slope. The funny thing is these Muslims are going to cut the throats of the fruity lawyers in the ACLU first.
Let us stop acting as if these people beliefs coincided with our 21st century society. Enough. We as a society are allowing people to rip the Crosses off War Memorials and put footbaths in bathrooms. If I see a footbath, I will treat it like a urinal.
