And for the woman's sign that says "this is not your country", I wonder how she would feel if one of her family members that came to Ellis Island was greeted with a sign like that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2071936172666189545.post-84814562619104390552010-08-23T08:12:32.436-04:002010-08-23T08:12:32.436-04:00thank you, yes

That should not be followed by any "howevers" or "buts" at least to those of us who are not as sophisticated as you. It would be my hope that the Muslims would be magnanimous enough to see how this is affecting a large portion of the USA and withdraw their plan for the mosque at this time. <br /><br />I do not agree with the remainder of your comment but I certainly agree with your right to say it. <br /><br />Blessings to our troops who stand between you and me and harms way.Granny Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165058412950953296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2071936172666189545.post-30200157863090380832010-08-22T00:34:51.810-04:002010-08-22T00:34:51.810-04:00I agree whole hearteldy in what you posted. I'...I agree whole hearteldy in what you posted. I'm disturbed by the ignorance of some. Blaming a whole culture for the act a few is disheartening, but like you said, it has been happening for year and will still be happening for many more years to come I'm afraid. <br /><br />My question I guess is, "why did this need to made into national news?" What about that poor woman we haven't heard much about that is getting ready to be stoned to death?" What about her? and the rest of the millions of people who are being sold daily into slavery? Or the homeless, needy and impoverished that reside in every part of the globe. <br /><br />It is our duty to help, not hinder. Judging someone based on their ethniticity and religous beliefs in my world is a sin. <br /><br />Blessed Be- and thank you for this post. Not many would come right out and say something that indeed needs to be addressed. <br /><br />AngieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02531805495100414095noreply@blogger.com
