Dearborn comes out

Bin Laden is dead; and in Dearborn, Michigan, hundreds of Muslims were on the streets letting their emotions run wild!
"In Dearborn, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit with a large Muslim and Arab population, a small crowd gathered outside the City Hall in celebration, many of them being of Middle Eastern descent."[2]

"The Dearborn celebration of about two dozen people was captured on video and posted to YouTube overnight."

Jessica Carreras and Clare Pfeiffer Ramsey, "Riot Police Respond as Counter-Protesters Storm Terry Jones' Demonstration." April 29, 2011
About 400 people gathered to protest Quran-burning Pastor Terry Jones on Friday in Dearborn. At least two people were arrested.

In addition to the counter-protesters on the street, people yelled at Jones, honked their horns and gave him the finger as they drove by.

At least two people were arrested as counter-protesters to Quran-burning Pastor Terry Jones stormed his demonstration in Dearborn Friday evening.

Jones spoke out both against Sharia Law as well as what he sees as the oppression of free speech in Dearborn.

Cars and semi-trucks driving by slowed down and honked their horns in support of the protest to Jones' speech, while some passengers leaned out of windows and sunroofs and yelled at Jones, giving him the middle finger.

"It's a special day for us to show Americans we are celebrating, we are united," said Ahmed Albedairy, 35, of Dearborn, who came to the U.S. from Iraq in 1996 and was one of about 20 people outside City Hall very early Monday. Dearborn is home to one of the nation's largest Arab and Muslim communities. Roughly one-third of the 100,000 residents trace their roots to the Middle East.

Said one Muslim: "I think by seeing him out of our life gives us comfort. At least no big harm will come to the Muslim community in the U.S. from him or people like him."

So it turns out they weren't out protesting bin Laden's death, as you, being the disgusting bigot you are, thought they would be. I hope this don't stop you from casually accusing other brown skinned people of being terrorists in the future based on nothing but your own delutional paranoia and bigotry.

Oh, let's actually read the content above: 400 people came to a near riot over Terry Jones; and about a dozen came out to note the death of bin Laden.

As for you, well, you're not smart enough notice simple things like what the post is about, so I'll leave it at that.

In Dearborn they were throwing SHOES at Jones. Now who does that? We simply can't allow mohammedans to try and deny us our basic rights and riot on our soil. Deport them or put them in jail. I also like the idea of concentration camps.
