Marching with guns is not democracy. Its anti democracy and goes to deny these people their constitutional rights.
It's a constitutional right in this country.
But it is also blatant intimidation to a peaceful group of American citizens.
As opposed to red necks in trucks with a shot gun hanging in the back window and a large drooling dog in the cab with the window rolled all the way down?
Towns and counties in part of the country have different rules from large cities and more metropolitan communities.
If the down had all showed up with their dogs in the town hall or a bottle of beer and a pork sandwich?
Is it right to muslims to tell schools they have to only serve all halal food to the students not just the muslim ones? Students with allergies usually bring their own food and some allowed to eat in "nut" free zones or separate rooms.
If a school banned all food for all the allergies of all the students, there would be nearly nothing they could serve.
What of uniforms where muslims demand their students wear the hijab, niqba or abaya for the boys and not participate in certain classes and activities or separate the boys from the girls in classes or actually have separate the sexes in the whole school?
In flood zones or areas near water ways and swamps, would you want a cemetery where the bodies were not preserved or laid in only a shroud? Not even autopsied to find if they body might be carrying something contagious even years later? No cremation or above ground burials? Not knowing what the rains and runoff might carry a mile of more away or into water aquifers and wells?
After Katrina more than a hundred coffins were found miles away and had to be identified and returned if possible. Would you want half decomposed bodies in nothing but a sheet floating in your area in a flood or disaster? Georgia is not exactly desert climate where the body will naturally mummify or left to the bugs? Yes, these are matters for the town to decide on? Muslim cemeteries are no visited on a regular basis like other faiths. Women are not suppose to visit or morn. Women are usually not allowed near the grave yard even during burial and might only see it once after one year if at all.
Town halls allow for open discussions on such items and for the town to vote on changes. Those who don't know about or understand need to be able to learn before making a decision for the town.
It is about information and the community working together to find the right solution.
It is about muslims or any outside group learning to work with their neighbors and assimilating into america.
