Dearborn Police Violate 1st Amendment to Advantage Muslims

Recently I posted an article inspired by Charles (Chuck) Colson in which the Obama Administration uses Orwellian Newspeak referring to the First Amendment right of Religious Freedom as Freedom of Worship. Just as a short summary for the purpose of this current post, there is a difference between Freedom to practice religion and Freedom to worship as you please.

Free Worship is a confined in a box situation. Religious Freedom is the ability to worship and speak about your faith outside of the box without concern for the State or private citizens from preventing your freedom to practice your religion anywhere in America that is public property. For the Obama Administration (in this Secretary of State Hillary Clinton) to use the Newspeak of “Freedom of Worship” is an indication of the path this Leftist Administration is headed as it pertains to First Amendment Religious Freedom and Free Speech.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. (First Amendment – Cornel University Law School)

Now there is evidence that the Obama Administration will look the other way as Constitutional Civil Rights are violated when it pertains to Christians. After all, part of the Leftist agenda is to render America’s predominant religion of Christianity a toothless husk of faith that will have no more affect on morality or the rule of law in America. What is the evidence?

The evidence is the Islamic agenda in America taking advantage of the Leftist agenda in order to violate Constitutional First Amendment Rights of the adherents of the Christian Faith. At least two groups of Christians went to Dearborn(istan), Michigan at an Islamic festival. One (or so I understand) went to share the Good News of Jesus Christ. The other went NOT to proselytize but to ask questions about the Islam represented at the Dearbornistan festival. (I understand that) the first group Christians were prevented from passing out Christian literature and prevented from witnessing and yet curious non-Muslims that attended became the victims of peaceful da’wa (Islamic evangelism – 205 pg pdf file). The second group of Christians represented Acts 17 Apologetics (YouTube Channel). Amazingly Acts 17 Apologetics has been able to remain on YouTube. It is amazing because YouTube is big on being a dhimmi to Muslim complaints of being offended.

Keep in mind part of Islamic theo-politics is to refuse to allow Islam, its prophet Mohammed or its Allah to be offended. Any of these offenses require a violent response to keep the honor of Islamic Supremacism intact.

The Dearbornistan police force has taken great steps not to allow Muslims to be offended even if the U.S. Constitution guarantees Free Speech and Religious Freedom. In essence the Dearborn police force is breaking the actual meaning of the First Amendment; viz. “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion”. The Dearborn Police Force in reality is securing Islam as the city government supported established religion of Dearborn, Michigan.

This is not a so-called Separation of Church and State issue. Frankly the phrase nowhere exists in the U.S. Constitution. The issue is a government entity protecting a religion’s tenets (viz. Islam) over the tenets of another religion (viz. Christianity).

So check this out! How many clauses of the First Amendment are the Dearborn Police breaking?

1. Establishing Islam as the city religion.

2. Preventing the free exercise of religion; viz. Christianity.

3. Preventing the First Amendment Right of Free Speech.

So where is the Civil Rights outcry from American Mainstream Media (MSM) and the Obama Administration? If it weren’t for small independent grass roots organizations that exist determined to publish the truth of Islamic principles most American voters and citizens would not have a clue of this egregious violation of the First Amendment. When the Civil Rights Movement was moving in high gear to stop discrimination and prejudice in the South, American National Guardsmen were sent to enforce the rule of law since local officials and police refused to do so. Shucks partner I remember as a kid watching then Governor Wallace of Alabama forced out of the way as an African-American was escorted to a previously Whites Only school. This was the case of the rights of the minority being protected over the rights of the local majority.

Effectively the Dearborn Police are segregating and establishing the minority religion so that the majority religion is faced with non-Constitutional segregation of Dearbornistan Muslims from Christian Free Speech – spoken and written - and the free practice of religion on public property.

Now how did I hear about this travesty of Justice and disregard of the American Constitution? I read about this from the email list alert sent out by the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission. The CADC email linked to a story entitled, “Dearborn Michigan Police Hostile Towards Christians”. If you go to that link, you will discover there is a YouTube video from Acts 17 Apologetics. This is the video I have linked above. That video was of a Muslim festival on June 21, 2009. Now I’m not sure if that was a mistake or not because after looking at the YouTube site for Acts 17 Apologetics I discovered a June 21, 2010 Muslim festival exposé that better fits the description of the CADC article. Evidently the CADC researches did not look for the most recent video of the Dearborn Police Force stomping on the First Amendment Rights of Christians to freely practice their faith in public and for Christians to exercise their right to Free Speech.
