Holder Sues City For Denying Islamic Terrorist Indoctrination Center
Other than the fact that the Department of Injustice didn't sue when the city
recently denied zoning for a Christian Church under the same circumstances, what
no one else seems to be mentioning is that Americans who have joined ISIS have
come from this city's greater metropolitan area.
(Star Tribune) The U.S. attorney said St. Anthony violated the rights of a religious group by not allowing a prayer center to open.
U.S.
Attorney Andrew Luger announced the filing of a lawsuit against the city of St.
Anthony for an alleged violation of the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized
Persons Act of 2000.
The federal government on Wednesday sued the small north-metro city of St. Anthony, contending that its City Council violated federal law in 2012 by rejecting a proposed Islamic center.
The lawsuit sprang from a controversy that echoes those that have flared in many U.S. cities when Muslims have sought to establish worship centers.
"An injustice has been done," U.S. Attorney Andrew Luger said at a news conference in Minneapolis. "I will not stand by while any religious group is subject to unconstitutional treatment that violates federal civil rights laws."
