Hamtramck, America's First Majority-Muslim City Council, Witnesses The New Normal, Muslim Triumphalism
From PJM:
The nation’s first, but certainly not last, majority-Muslim city council has just been elected in Hamtramck, Michigan, a historically Polish city.
But before anyone could break out the sparkling grape juice and toast our new diversity, Ibrahim Algahim — a Muslim activist in Hamtramck – crowed at a victory party:
Algahim, at least, was not ready to link arms and sing “Kumbaya,” as the diverse peoples of Hamtramck marched towards multicultural harmony.
Randy Wimbley of Fox 2 Detroit reported: [H]istory [was made] in Hamtramck as voters elected the first majority Muslim city council in the country. But rather than ease racial tensions, the comments from a Muslim organizer threaten to divide. [Algahim’s comment] may create or widen the rift between the growing Muslim and shrinking Polish community in Hamtramck.
One of those with rising tensions was one of the defeated — and Polish — city council candidates, Cathie Lisinki-Gordon:
I’m shocked that he said that. I’m a very good friend of his. I cannot believe that he would ever profile any select group. Especially when his community has felt ostracized and profiled for many years.
Just wait until they give you the "Call to Islam", bitchez.
