Texas Muslims Want to Build Homes and a Mosque. The Governor Says No. "Shariah law is not allowed in Texas"

[Zincwarrior]

There is a Christian only city in Idaho?

So your answer wasn't clear, are you saying you'd be fine with a Muslim city but not a Christian city, or no one both? Trying to understand your answer.

There is a Muslim only city in Texas?

There is a Muslim only city in Texas?

Not yet, they are wanting to build one

 

[OhPleaseJustQuit]

Again, the Bill of Rights would like to have a word. I know it really messes up your hair, but everyone has those rights.

.

Okay.

Tell that to a Muslim.

Maybe one of the ones who rape any of those European women.

[Moonglow]

What happened to other people’s “rights” not to rent or sell property to blacks, or their “rights” to not serve people whose life-styles they disagreed with?

Do you shit on the neighbor every chance you get?

I suggest a little shotgun justice. However, the Constitution is clear on the subject.

Where did they say that only Muslims would be allowed?

Has anyone seen the word "only" anywhere?

You know who else rapes European women? European men.

I think you mis-understood my post.

 

[AZrailwhale]

Show me another religion that not only allows rape of the women of other religions but actively encourages it.

 

[Leo123]

The irony here is impressive. you are whining and wanting to outlaw one religion by asking if they will permit another....

Stop lying about what I post.

‘Abbott has posted about the development at least 11 times in recent weeks. He suggested the developers may have violated fair housing and financial laws, and accused the Islamic center of conducting illegal funerals.

The governor ordered multiple overlapping investigations. Not to be outdone, the state’s conservative attorney general, Ken Paxton, added his own criminal inquiry.

The state’s actions have fueled opposition to the proposed housing development, known as EPIC City, before any initial plans have been submitted. At a hearing on the project in Collin County, where part of it would be located, hours of public comment included expressions of anti-Muslim hostility.

“I know what this would mean,” said another speaker, Krista Schild, a Republican precinct chair in Hunt County, where a portion of the project would be also be located. “Honor killings, stonings, marrying their young girls off to older men.”’

Texas Muslims Want to Build Homes and a Mosque. Gov. Greg Abbott Says No.

Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas is trying to stop a planned community near Dallas that has fueled anti-Muslim hostility and divided locals.

The fascist state of Texas.

There’s no limit to Republicans’ bigotry and hate, along with their ignorance and unwarranted fear.

It’s a fascist state because it’s enforcing fair housing laws? Developing a community for one ethnic group like that and discriminating against others is wrong and bigoted

Didn’t I read that they were planning this town in Texas?

No, they literally aren't. I guess you didn't read the actual article or the arguments back and forth.

"Unwarranted fear".

You probably were still in diapers, but you missed a few events.

50 killed in Florida gay club massacre by Muslim, deadliest mass shooting in US history​

​

Twelve pipe bombs and thousands of rounds of ammunition were found at the Redlands home rented by Muslim Syed Rizwan Farook. 14 dead, 21 injured in San Bernardino mass shooting; 2 suspects killed​

Middle Eastern terrorism had arrived on American soil—with a bang. World Trade Center Bombing 1993​

Truly terrible. And? Does the Bill of Rights only apply to a small portion of citizens in your world?

 

[Coyote]

How is it bigotry to ensure there is no law that supersedes Federal, State, and Local Laws? There are many religious communities in the US. None of their laws exceed or exempt US Laws.

Neither do these folks.

 

[irosie91]

Religious persecution.

Insufficient information

 

[Coyote]

All under strict sharia law.

What evidence do you have for this claim since nothing in the article states that.

Insufficient information

From the OP article:

The state’s actions have fueled opposition to the proposed housing development, known as EPIC City, before any initial plans have been submitted. At a hearing on the project in Collin County, where part of it would be located, hours of public comment included expressions of anti-Muslim hostility.

There is a category of planned communities known as “intentional living” communities planned around shared faith, causes, or ways of living. This no different.

 

[Coyote]

There is a Muslim only city in Texas?

They seem to think so even though none exists.
