The bill that contained this also had over 100+ other name of peiple actually worth honoring. This was snuck in so many members had to vote for it.

No fucks about ethics? Consider optics. This was so achingly ludicrous from the start. Just fucking astounding.

Asa gay I’m pretty much like fuck Islam. Sorry…y’all are full of shit. I don’t need to virtue signal any pro Islam nonsense. Any democrat who believes in freedom of speech and religion needs to understand what they really stand for, which is a church/state what could possibly go wrong?

Hahaha, I always think of Queens where there can be 68th Ave is right next to 68th Drive and 68th Road. Some people came up with that system and though "yep, that won't ever be confusing"

Little known fact - it's named after our first governor, Governor Tappan Zee.

> They had Malcolm X killed after he became an actual Muslim.
People still espouse conspiracies about how it was really the FBI, CIA, etc.
Farrakhan has repeatedly hinted that NOI killed him.

>According to Latter Day Saint belief, the golden plates (also called the gold plates or in some 19th-century literature, the golden bible) are the source from which Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon, a sacred text of the faith. Some accounts from people who reported handling the plates describe the plates as weighing from 30 to 60 pounds (14 to 27 kg), gold in color, and composed of thin metallic pages engraved with hieroglyphics on both sides and bound with three D-shaped rings. Smith said that he found the plates on September 22, 1823, on a hill near his home in Manchester, New York, after the angel Moroni directed him to a buried stone box.

You have those golden plates and read the hieroglyphics through a seer stone? That's not slander. That's what he claimed he did. That's insane.

The Conflict of Interests board knocked his salary down to $1. He wasn’t going to not work for that kind of money.

FYI maintenance fees for a coop cover the property tax, so at the end of the year you don’t owe money on that.

I actually appreciate this story since I looked more into Kristin Richardson Jordan and now know my councilwoman is an insane person.

Yep, pretty much Malcolm Xs experience in Mecca showed him that everyone from all races, ethnicities, nationalities are equal under God. He didn’t see any special lines for white people, asians, black people, etc. (Pretty much why there was a recent uproar a few years ago when there was a stampede because there was plenty of space that could be used but was closed off for royalty and billionaires).

Break free? From hoping their successful in their undertaking? From knowing the truth behind who killed Malcolm X (who this post had nothing to do with)? It sounds like you need to break free from whatever has brainwashed you to be so hostile to the thought of organized political killings and framing of black leaders as hate groups because their message uplifts their own. The NOI did far more for blacks including getting them off drugs, in jobs, and a sense of pride of themselves for the first time since emancipation. More than any other group from its founding through to the 90s. You need to become far more educated before you can comment on such issues based on your deflection to a nonexistent moral high ground in hoping I break free of knowing these things. You need to ask yourself why you want this.
As I said, nothing to debate here. You have no points and you’ve done little research.
