    This isn't about prayer. It is an ostentatious demonstration of power, of taking over public spaces.

    It's a hostile act.

    How inconsiderate. That would be a nuisance.

    It's more than a nuisance - it's sabre rattling - demonstrating conquest.

    More than 7000 churches in Louisiana but they still have to put the 10 commandments in the classroom for children.

    A swift kick in the ass always works when dealing with clowns. I’m pretty they’re praying for world peace and the Jews.

    I say got-dammit whenever and wherever the occasion calls for it.

    Does that count?

    My feelings shifted on this since I saw men segregated from women in prayer rooms.

    I get being behind a woman throwing her butt high up or vice versa is "indecent" but if they realize there's a time and place for things, then they shouldn't get a blank check doing it wherever they feel like.*

    Islamic folks exploiting and breaking secular norms to proselytize their faith should be actively resisted if only because they aren't the only assholes who think their beliefs are the greatest thing since sliced bread.

    *I could be swayed if Mia Khalifa went out in public, stopped the crowd, then threw her butt in the air with alignment to Mecca.
