 ‘Islamic housing development’ under investigation by Justice Department
Story by Connor Stringer • 17h


A Muslim housing development in Texas is under investigation by the Justice Department amid concerns it would “violate the constitutional rights of Jewish and Christian Americans”.

The proposed development, put forward by the East Plano Islamic Centre (Epic), is touted as a “thriving ecosystem” that “paves the way for prosperity” and would be centred around a mosque and a private Islamic school.
 
Greg Abbott, the governor of Texas, accused the planner of creating an exclusively Muslim community that would impose Islamic law on residents.

Republican Senator John Cornyn urged Pam Bondi, the Attorney General, to investigate the development, writing: “A master-planned ‘community of thousands of Muslims’ could violate the constitutional rights of Jewish and Christian Texans, by preventing them from living in this new community and discriminating against them within the community.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Beheading nonbelievers isn't the same as discriminating against them, is it? *****rollingeyes*****
