Except this time, they're going one step further.

Phoenix police are on edge about another “draw Muhammad” cartoon contest set for Friday that will include a protest in front of a mosque once attended by the gunmen killed outside a similar event in Garland, Texas, earlier this month.

This one was easy. I wish I could do stocks or lottery numbers.

Yup! Outstanding work by the Garland PD!!!

This is a quote from the article, Breitbart Texas asked what happens when there is a conflict between Sharia law and Texas law. El-badawi said most of the time, the laws are in agreement. When pushed further he admitted that, “we follow Sharia law.”

A common fallacy is the idea that the majority sets
the pattern and the trends of social, economic, and
religious life. History reveals quite the opposite: the
majority copies or imitates the minority and this
establishes the long-run developments and socioeconomic
evolutions.
—Humphrey Neill

Can you see the change in our own moral values in America over the past 50 years that were brought about by a change from minorities? (I am not talking race but moral values). Are we seeing seeds of Sharia Law being planted now in the US and what will it look like in 25 or 50 years?

IMHO, to follow sharia law would be to devolve. On the whole, I doubt that will happen.

No carry inside the building, but parking lot??? I personally will avoid this area (during that event) even though it is right by my favorite Academy store.

Is a building owned by a school district still considered off limits? If it is not a "school." And I don't remember if a school district is considered a governmental entity that would make property that is not a school even enforceable.

Anyone?

They are something to behold. The Midway is considerably larger than most WWII aircraft carriers and was commissioned just one month after the end of the war. The ship I deployed on was much larger, a larger flight deck and about twice the displacement and the most recent ones have an even greater displacement than mine. We once sailed alongside the Midway and we were amazed at how much smaller she was. My dad's carrier was a little more than half the displacement of the Midway, shorter, and no angle deck, commissioned one year before the Midway in 1944. Some of his buddies transferred to the Big E and remarked they thought they could put their old ship on the flight deck and sail off with it.

I was in a fighter squadron in the Navy and worked on the flight deck most of the time. My dad was in the Navy as a signalman and also served on an aircraft carrier. He was told that he had no business on the flight deck and to NOT go there during flight ops because he had not business there. I was quite confident up there and had no issues. Our own pilots didn't like being there much because it wasn't where they spent much time and didn't really belong there. Their work environment was the cockpit and the sky and that is where they were comfortable.

I am not a cartoonist and don't live in Garland, so unless something changes to require my presence in the area on that day, I have no business being there and am not going to go out of my way just to prove a point. Just that same as my dad did by not going somewhere he had no business going on the flight deck during ops just to see what it was like.

The other thing I'm curious about is the response if something bad does happen if this event takes place. I'm sure there will be a strong police presence, but am also confident that there will be many CHLs there. However, the event itself might be 30.06 posted. Either way, I'm sure the police presence will be much higher here if it does take place than it was in Copenhagen, where they are all visible or not.

I think what some people on this board and many others fail to realize is that it is not only a religion but about Sharia Law. It is Sharia Law vs. US Constitution and that is a political issue not religious.

I don't recall another post of yours, but mine here was more about a heads up for the possibility of this event coming here to Texas. Garland is also not too far from where I live. I know I will keep an ear out for this event and try and make sure I'm no where near it if it actually does occur.

Possibly in the wrong forum. It seemed it might fit in a couple of different ones.

However, apparently one can obtain a gun license in Denmark, but ownership and licenses are reportedly rare. Since there is an event in the planning for Garland, TX, it will be of particular interest to see if and what happens if there is this type of attack here.

The shooting at this event may have organizers of a ‘Draw the Prophet Mohammed’ event ramping up security for their event. Pamela Geller is planning the event in Garland, Texas at the same site where a Muslim group held the event “Stand with the Prophet Mohammed” following the Charlie Hebdo attacks in France.
