Minneapolis Installs Sharia Hotline to Report Americans Who Criticize Islam

[Free Vulcan]

The city of Minneapolis has set up a hotline for residents to report citizens who criticize Islam, in order to prosecute them for “hate crimes”, according to statements on the city’s website.

The city, run by Democrat Mayor Besty Hodges, a non-Muslim who regularly wears a hijab in public, will operate the “service” through its 3-1-1 helpline, and claims it is targeting any “harassing behaviors motivated by prejudice”, according to a press release.

According to the local newspaper, the Star-Tribune, “the announcement comes amid signs of a recent surge of such incidents affecting Muslims and Jews across the country, many of which go unreported.”

The city’s Department of Civil Rights clearly states on its website that it only enforces hate crimes against certain “protected classes.” Muslim imams, as members of the “protected class,” can preach the destruction of America from a Minneapolis mosque, and they will not be prosecuted.

The mayor is clearly a nut, but there's more than a few of them i.e liberals in and around the Twin Cities.
The mayor of St. Paul is also a liberal nutter.

They need such a hotline in Germany, just in case anyone there feels like objecting to this Muslim behavior: Germany: 8-Year-Old Girl Attacked DAILY, Stabbed by Muslim Student at School – Teacher Covers it Up. How dare you people criticize one of Mohammed's followers?

The leftists at Snopes says this mostly false.  But I have no doubt the muzzies will use this new 3-1-1 hotline to their advantage.

We need to verify this to make sure this is real..

What's True
The city of Minneapolis set up a hotline through which members of the public could report suspected hate crimes.

What's False
The hotline was not exclusive to Islamophobia or any other specific kind of hate crime, was not intended as a forum for reports about criticism of Islam, and was never referred to as a "Sharia" hotline.

Never, never use snopes as fact checkers. It’s just a couple of losers in their living room pretending to be impartial and accurate arbiters of True Facts. Use them at your own shame.

Exactly.  I questioned them on a couple of their 'findings' regarding illegal immigration facts/issues which I had very good reason to believe were true and they declared as false.  I point blank asked them if they personally went to the source or the site to investigate and I was told "no" that they do their research mostly from the internet and sort out data and make a determination!

I challenged them again on several issues and they refused to respond to me.

From my personal experiences, I determine them to be very unreliable and far from credible.

Brain freezes in Minneapolis, brain farts ... how do these people get elected in the first place?  I'd rather believe that the elections are corrupt rather than thinking that people with all of their mental faculties are voting people like this into position.

[LMAO]

 Although the hotline his stupid even without specifically defending Islam,  how do we all know for sure that it’s specifically protects Islam from criticism?

[austingirl]

Can't criticize islam? There goes free speech.

While there is no sharia hotline, it's for certain that if you have a non-Muslim mayor who occasionally dresses up in a hijab you are liable to be fairly ridiculed for your foolishness.
 I wonder if the mayor also wears a sombrero to support illegal immigrants from south of the border? If it's an illegal from Ireland, does she dress up like a leprechaun?
