Muslim student journalist gets harassed in Tennessee

[FAH1223]

By opponents of the Murfreesboro, TN masjid. It's still going on. If you recall, this area had a lot of attention due to the masjid being built and them not letting Muslims pray there from 2009-2012. Now they won't let them expand the cemetery for Muslims.

Big ups to the sister in the video, a product of the great University of Maryland

Bigoted rednecks in suits. Nothing they say even makes sense.

And what about being on the back of the bus?

Racist fockers.....

now tell me about all the churches in Saudi Arabia or other majority islamic countries?

you can't have it both ways.

you can't be mad at the gaalo for doing the same thing you would do if someone wanted to build a church in somalia.

this is hypocrisy at its finest.

There's a major difference!

These gaalo don't have a monopoly on building places of worship in this country. These white folk are from EUROPE and they have only been here 2 or 3 centuries. The Native American tribes are the only indigenous people who SHOULD be able to tell everyone what to do.

Saudi Arabia has been a Muslim majority land for over 1000 years.

You're comparing apples to oranges.

The U.S. Constitution has no state religion and guarantees the people the right to practice (or not) any religion they want.

like I said hypocrisy at its finest. the issue of who really owns a land is IRRELEVANT considering the fact that even Somalia was not originally inhabited by Somali people, all evidence says that people like the Bushmen use to occupy the horn. i'm sure Saudi Arabia was also once occupied by humans that were not arab or muslim. I don't know why 200 years isn't enough to give the ruling group ownership over a land but 1000 years is? that seems very arbitrary.

the REAL issue is, muslims can't come to lands that aren't theirs and then cry about being treated badly when they do the same to non-muslims in their land.

if Saudi Arabia forces all women in their country to wear hijabs (even non-believers), why can't France ban the hijab? its hypocritical for muslims to be fine with one but mad at the latter. either ALL people should be free to practice their religion AT ALL TIMES AND PLACES or they shouldn't. don't get mad when the gaalo treat you the same way you would treat them if you were the majority.

First Amendment Right!

Mosques can be built in all European countries and in fact virtually all non Muslim countries but churches, temples, cant be built in most Muslim countries

If a Saudi can pray in a mosque in Buenos Aires, an Argentine should be allowed to pray in a church in Riyadh.

If a Somali can celebrate Eid in London, a Brit should be able to celebrate Christmas in Mogadishu. There are many Brits in Somalia who would have loved to celebrate their holiday but the SFG banned Christmas last year. There are hundreds of Christians in Somalia who have to hide their faith for fear of their life. They wouldn't live to see the next day if they went to municipal govt bureaucrats to apply for a construction permit to build themselves a church.

You know you can't even practices certain Islamic sects in Muslim countries while the non Muslim countries allow freedom of religion. A Shia can't openly practice in Saudi Arabia or Somalia or Sunni areas of Baghdad or they'll get killed. A Sunni gets harrassed by Iranian officials, police and the general public. Kurds in Iran are targeted because they are Sunnis, not necessarily because they are Kurds. While Sunni, Shia, etc can all practice everywhere in the non Muslim world

In some cases, Muslims are given more right to practice their faith in non Muslim countries than their own Muslim countries
