7th Rangers: California: CAIR throws a hissy fit, plans to file a complaint about mayor's remarks with the civil rights division of the U.S. Justice Department
Fighting Seventh
The Fighting Rangers On War, Politics and Burning Issues
Rudyard Kipling"
“When you're left wounded on Afganistan's plains and
the women come out to cut up what remains, Just roll to your rifle
and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier”
General Douglas MacArthur"
“We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.”
“It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.” “Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
“The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.”
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .” “The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
“Nobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
California: CAIR throws a hissy fit, plans to file a complaint about mayor's remarks with the civil rights division of the U.S. Justice Department
Monday, February 01, 2010
So what do you think caused the outrage of the self-appointed "Muslim advocacy" group? Apparently, the mayor's statement that the town of Lancaster is "growing a Christian community".
(LA Times) Lancaster Mayor R. Rex Parris drew criticism from a leading Muslim group today after saying in his annual State of the City address that the high desert town was “growing a Christian community.”
"We're growing a Christian community, and don't let anybody shy away from that,” Parris told the audience of ministers gathered for his address.“I need [Lancaster residents] standing up and saying we're a Christian community, and we're proud of that," the mayor said.
The Greater Los Angeles area office of the Council on American-Islamic Relations denounced the statement and said it plans to file a complaint about the mayor's remarks with the civil rights division of the U.S. Justice Department.
Quote:
“Elected officials should not use their public positions to impose their religious beliefs on others," said Hussam Ayloush, executive director of the Los Angeles chapter of CAIR.
You just gotta love it when a Muslim supremacy group tries to teach somebody that they shouldn't impose their religious views on others.
I like the mayor's response. The mayor, reached by telephone today, said his remarks did not intend to impose his faith on others, and he said he would make no apology.“This is just about very few people wanting to get their 15 minutes of fame,” he said. “I guess they got it.”
Kudos to the Lancaster mayor for telling the bitches that they are just that, bitches. Hat tip: Eye On The World
