Minneapolis to allow Muslim prayer call broadcasts at all hours

I remember the SC blue laws back in the day. They pretty much shut down most commerce in the state, not just places where you could buy alcohol. People used to call Tennessee backward, but we are a few decades ahead of those idiots in SC.

Bars in SC used to have to use the small bottles (like the airlines serve) for mixed drinks. Long Island Iced Tea was a serious drink there in those days.
 
I guess your argument is that racism doesn't exist. I can hear you now, "I'm not racist, I even have a black friend, at work."


Or it could have been the plainly obvious fact that they were speaking about MUSLIMS which is a religion....not a race or specific to ANY race since muzzies come in all shapes and sizes. Lmao at yall with the "racism" allegations. If every single non- Dimwit politician had not been villified as a "racist" for the last 5o plus year...PERHAPS that word might still mean something to Americans. Instead, mentioning that word results in immediately being either ignored or mocked...because, as always, the liberals are a bunch of racist bastards themselves.

Turns out that humans tend to feel more comfortable and at ease arpund people similar to them...regardless of race, religion, etc. In 2023 all these "ist" ending insults are just from morons who are lacking in either discretion or judgment.

I remember as well, I’ve lived here most my life. On Sundays many businesses couldn’t open until 1:00. Alcohol sales on Sunday is pretty recent as well.

My company sat on property for almost a decade waiting for Sevierville to permit alcohol sales. Once they did we had a restaurant open in 6 months

Would you have a problem if a Christian church did the same thing?

Doesn't seem like anybody should be ringing bells or calling people to pray at 3AM. As someone pointed out earlier, if you are that devout, set your own alarm. I imagine most people would find a way to wake up if they had to take necessary meds on a 4 or 6 hour schedule. Seems like the request is pretty dumb - surpassed only by the response.

New York City issued new guidance Tuesday allowing mosques (masjids) to broadcast the Muslim call to prayer on Fridays between 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. without obtaining a permit and despite sound restrictions in city neighborhoods.

According to the city, the guidance also allows the call to prayer to be broadcast in the evenings during Ramadan, a month-long period of fasting and prayer for the Muslim community.

“Today we are cutting red tape and saying clearly if you are a mosque or house of worship of any kind, you do not have to apply for a permit to amplify your call to Friday prayer. You are free to live your faith in NYC,” Mayor Eric Adams said while announcing the new guidance Tuesday.

The new initiative, launched by the NYPD, clarifies the call to prayer is allowed in New York City and “not prohibited despite sound restrictions in city neighborhoods,” the release said.

 
good. Freedom of religion is freedom of religion. Unless this new law bans churches from ringing bells, I don't know what the complaint is.

Or only allows them to ring their bells during the same period as the mosques can play their call to prayer.

Somali-American who said protecting illegal migrants from Trump was top priority LOSES bid to become America's wokest mayor​


A left-wing Democrat who vowed to protect illegal migrants from Donald Trump's deportation raids has lost his bid to become the new mayor of Minneapolis.

Omar Fateh, 30, was beaten by centrist Democrat Jacob Frey by six percentage points, results released on Wednesday show.

Frey, 44 - who has been blasted over crime and squalor in the city following the 2020 murder of George Floyd there - will now serve a third term as the city's leader.

Minnesota State Senator Fateh vowed to 'keep fighting' as he accepted defeat in a statement posted to X.

Fateh has drawn comparisons with Zohran Mamdani, a democratic socialist who won New York City's mayoral race on Tuesday, because of their backgrounds and ideological similarities.

That's just not possible. We've been told again and again that Minneapolis is overrun by Somalis and is completely under their control.
 

WATCH — Minneapolis’s Reelected Democrat Mayor Jacob Frey Delivers Victory Speech in Somali​


Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) recently won reelection, but his victory speech has drawn criticism.

Video footage shows Frey speaking to a crowd in Somali and appeared to thank those who voted for him, addressing “the great people of Minneapolis,” Fox News reported Saturday.

“This dude faked cried at Floyd’s funeral, got booed out of his own town, threw his cops under the bus, & is now speaking Somali,” another user commented, while someone else called his speech “sad and pathetic.”

More video footage appears to show Frey ramping up a crowd while wearing a T-shirt that reads “I Love Somalia.”
