When will these cowards in Washington wake up !! A madrassah in middle AMERICA is disconcerting to say the least.... Like the town in Michigan that allows a call to prayer over loud speakers, waking not just the sheep, but others of different religious as well !!! Yes I said sheep, because thats what they are plain and simple... But these sheep are not only going to lead themselves to slaughter, but the rest of us as well...

Frankly I am absolutely disgusted with our so called leaders in our government whether it's federal,state, or local..... a few years ago in Mecca Saudi Arabia, there was a fire in a girls high school, but guess what some 17 of these young women where stopped from leaving the school and burned to death !!! Why? because the morals police as they like to call themselves wouldn't let these young women out because, now get this they where not wearing a black coat called an abaye and a headscarf and another to cover their faces !!!!

Scenario, lets say this school/madrassah in Illinois caught fire and the local fire department shows up are they going to have to fight the morals police, if they catch some girls trying to leave the school without proper attire.....Wake up you cowards in charge of protecting us, and put a stop to this bullying by religious lunatics......Tolerance my a-- .......
