[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] That photo is from Egypt.  I am Egyptian.  While that photo is wonderful, there were at least 100 churches that have been destroyed recently, not to mention Christian shops and homes that were ransacked and destroyed.  But regular guys shouldn't be protecting the minority, it should be the police.  People who burn down churches should be arrested and prosecuted.  But that doesn't happen in Egypt, and Christians are also treated like shit in a variety of other ways.

However, that has absolutely NOTHING to do with this topic.  We live in America, we believe in equality and fairness. [b] If you think that treating people with dignity and kindness will lead to them slaughtering you and implementing Sharia law[/b], that is 100% your problem, because you are kind of crazy.[/quote]

Well, that IS pretty much exactly what happened to the christians in Lebanon....[/quote]

My mother is descended from Lebanese Christians. I have studied the country in depth. This is not at all what happened in Lebanon.

Yes, folks, here is the request as I understand it. MoCo Muslims would like the schools to be closed on their holidays. The school board said they don't close on religious holidays, but if enough students were absent on those holidays, that would justify the schools' closure. That is the same justification that has been repeated here many times for closing on Jewish holidays. Therefore, the Muslim community asked that non-Muslims stay home in order to show solidarity and help justify a closure. If you don't support the Muslims' request, simply send your kids to school that day. There is no reason to bring up Dubai, Egypt, or Lebanon. There is no reason to discuss Sharia or accuse Muslims getting ready to attack people in the streets. Simply send your kids to school. On the other hand, if you want to support the Muslim community, keep your kids home. Seems pretty simple and non-controversial to me.
