NY mosque leaders object to neighbor's 'bomb' sign

NY mosque leaders object to neighbor's 'bomb' sign

This is interesting because the sign maker claims he did it to get attention by the city over his complaints.

".........................Mosque officials said the sign's message is offensive and that Heick hasn't responded to their requests for a meeting.

"I would really think it's an incitement of hatred against Muslims," said Dr. Syed Jaffri, an Amherst psychiatrist and member of the mosque's board of trustees. "Law enforcement should take it very seriously. Tomorrow, somebody could say, `Oh they have weapons,' and people believe it."

Mubarak Abidi, mosque president, said he called Amherst police over the weekend about the sign and was told its posting wasn't illegal............"

Remember the church who slammed a bunch of, what we shall say, were questionable female occupations? The ladies showed up outside the church to protest the next Sunday.
