There is no such thing as a public catholic school. Catholic schools are privately funded by the church and tuition charges.

They don't need special considerations above anyone else. I really have to agree, if any legal aliens want to be part of America, become American. Otherwise, stay in your own country. Irritates me immensely for any of them to cry when someone does not want a foreign flag flown on American soil. If you are so mad at Americans for the way you are treated, why did you come here? or stay here? You are most welcome to become one of us, but do not try to take over our country with your country's customs. I'm truly sorry for the way some are treated, and we who are christians, will make you feel welcome, but you left your country...big word LEFT so leave it behind. You CHOSE America, we didn't force it on you.

It's amazing that more Muslims aren't speaking out about the crazy things that make Americans wanna discriminate against them. If it were a Muslim country and say the someone wanted to build a Southern Baptist church and school on "their Holy Land"; they'd all be dead. There should be an outrage by anyone that even resembles a Muslim that doesn't feel they or their faith is being portrayed according to the "loving message of Islam" after being an "American". I mean think about it...if they (the Muslims) really wanted to honor themselves as standing for something they would contact the higher up federal agencies and work a coup! (What do Ya have to lose seeing You stand to have 72 virgins in heaven if/when You die?) Sorry for the flight delays but if it weren't for the fact We don't know if You're an enemy or a friendly; We wouldn't waste Our time with the searches.

All of these demands are an attempt to force Islam on the rest of the population at the taxpayer's expense. If the Muslims want all this, and more, they should set up private schools paid for by private monies that conduct classes in compliance with the curriculum established for the public school system. They should not be allowed to teach jihad as an ideal to be followed by true believers as is taught to children in the Gaza Strip.

I'm a Muslim. I don't think it's fair as long as there are other people of other religions who don't get special considerations while they need it. But as you mentioned foot baths, I think non-Muslims and other people who use the bathrooms are the ones who're benefiting from it because they're we no longer wash our feet under the faucet that we (Muslims and Non-Muslims) use for our hands. So the bottom line is that we don't deserve special considerations because we're no better than people of other religions. I'm asking you: Do I deserve to wait for hours in the airport getting high security check (Including strip search) by security guards who're rude as hell? I'm ok with it as long as those ***** terrorist morons are killing others in the name of us, but is it fair to treat all of us like we're one of 'em?

As long as they live here peaceably and legally, I think Muslims should receive what every american receives under the Constitution, The right to worship as they please. Other than that, NO SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. And I don`t think waving a flag of Iraq, or Iran, Or any other foreign country, regardless of nationality, Mexico included, should be allowed or tolerated.

I couldn't have an alter in HS...So no way... They are portraying those "foot baths" as multi-faith. I might have to change my religion...maybe one that I might have to wash my @ss everyday in them. What is the point.
Being taught in Arabic...Is that for the language requirement. If so...Great...I learned Spanish. Special treatment...They are equal like every single other apple-pie-eating AMERICAN!

Do they provide icons for Catholics to worship? Muslims should get the same consideration, no more, no less.

No more than Christians and Jews.
If in my district the PUBLIC schools are closed for Christmas and Hanukkah, why not to close them for Eid al-Adha?

Probably they could take care of seeing these things occur, given the opportunity. Meanwhile, a little respect would do.

Absolutely not. We are a melting pot and if they wont assimilate, they are free to return to where they came from.
