According to recent reports, the Obama administration is taking on the town of St. Anthony, Minn. for its leaders’ decision to turn down a request to build an Islamic center. U.S. Attorney Andrew Luger confirmed that the Department of Justice is suing the municipality, alleging that denial of the permit amounts to a violation of federal law.
“Though we have filed our lawsuit,” he said, “we hope the good people of St. Anthony, including the elected officials who made this decision, will change their minds and allow Abu Huraira to conduct prayer services in this space.”
The group sought permission to use the basement of the city’s business center to hold its religious ceremonies, prompting the city council to determine that such a use would be in violation of the building’s zoning permit.

ReplyDeleteObama is a Muslim and always takes the wrong side against his own country. Why does he keep suing states just because they are enforcing the law, the same laws he keeps biolating especially in regards to immigration or voting.
ReplyDeleteOur Government shut down Warren Jeffs and David Koresh and the branch Davidians. Neither was beheading people.
ReplyDeleteI would say beheading qualifies your religion as a cult which puts it in the subject to removal category.
