A week or so ago I discovered WordPress censored Creeping Sharia by removing the blog
from their platform. Today I discovered via a Counter Jihad Coalition (CJC) email alert that Creeping
Sharia found a new home on Tumblr.
I pray those operating Creeping
Sharia are still looking for a permanent home because my experience with
Tumblr is they are more censorship oriented than WordPress. Time will tell.
The post at Creeping
Sharia expounds that Steve Amundson (the founder of
CJC) had set up an expose-Islam-info-booth at a mall. The booth was accosted by
a couple of Muslim gals and a Muslim man left a backpack under the booth. I’ll
let the cross post that will appear below give the details of what occurred,
but the point of the post was the incident motivated the mall to rescind its
approval for Amundson to have a booth citing security reasons. Amundson got the
Thomas Moore Law Center
(TMLC) involved in the mall censorship issue.

Muslim Attempt To Silence Disturbing Truth About Islam

“I am very confident in
saying that if TMLC had not stepped in on behalf of us we would still be
fighting to gain back our First Amendment right of free speech.”
– Steve Amundson, founder of
the Counter Jihad Coalition (CJC).
Chances are, if you speak boldly about the truth of Islam
and Sharia Law you’re bound to run into resistance and conflict. Steve
Amundson, the courageous and dedicated founder of the Counter Jihad Coalition
(CJC) knows this all too well. He experienced a particularly disturbing
incident recently that temporarily prevented him from setting up his booths and
getting his message out.
The CJC exists to educate people on the truth about Islam.
They do this by setting up tables at different venues, such as the shopping
mall shown in the photo above, and pass out factual, truthful brochures. On a
given day, they can give out as many as 1,000 brochures.
Although most people are grateful for the information on
Islam, Amundson is always on high alert for potential backlash. This past July
was no exception.
Amundson and his team, including a pastor, set up their
booth at the Los Cerritos Center in Cerritos, California, on July 7th. At one
point, two men began snapping pictures of the booth, then getting on their
phone.
Soon after, two Muslim women approached the booth and began
cursing and causing a scene. Mall security was nearby and began speaking with
the women. In the meantime, a white haired Muslim man walked over to the CJC
booth and slid a backpack he was carrying under the CJC table. He then began
speaking with the pastor from CJC.
After a short conversation, the Muslim man walked away from
the pastor.
When Amundson found out that the man was an irate Muslim
complaining about CJC’s activities, he became concerned for their safety and
called security.
According to Amundson:
“I told security he left a backpack
underneath our booth. The Muslim refused to take the backpack. We started to
take cover behind cement pillars and told security to either call the bomb squad
or have the guy pick up the backpack. He finally agreed to very carefully pick
it up and security escorted him away. Security will not say at least right now
if he was arrested, if the bomb squad was called or what. Was this a dry run or
the real thing?”
Amundson’s subsequent application to place his table at the
Mall was denied, citing security reasons.
That’s when Amundson reached out to the Thomas More Law
Center (TMLC).
Thomas More Law Center attorneys wrote a letter to the Mall
concerning its denial of CJC’s constitutional rights to free speech.
A few weeks after the Mall acknowledged receipt of the letter, CJC was
approved.
Amundson was so grateful to have his First Amendment rights
restored, that he recently sent an email out to his large group of supporters
and thanked TMLC directly, and kindly encouraged his friends to donate to us.
Your ongoing support of TMLC ensures we
have the resources to provide immediate legal assistance, to individuals like
Steve Amundson and the CJC team. Thank you for your continued support of
the Thomas More Law Center.
