<BR>You asked if anything is going on locally in dearborn. On tuesday there were a few marches and small riots and michigan ave was shut down for a few hours. A lot of them were due to religion but I think a lot of people in dearborn and around the metro area that are very scared of racist actions. I think that this is why what happened in dearborn wasn't televised too much. The islam mosque right by wayne state was vandalized. Actually when I was walking home from class there wwer fox 2 news trucks and a camera man and i asked the camera man what he was doing there and he said that someone broke 2 windows in the islam center. At first i didn't really understand what he was saying and then I saw it. People are being targeted.

I'm really sorry if what I said sounded rude and I don't mean to say horrible things like that. I really apologise to anybody that was offended by what I said. It is just strange to me that a lot of people that are around me have said in the past and I mean a few years ago that America should be bombed. There are quite a few people that say that and I understnad that they are exercising their freedom of speech. Fear just brought out another side of me i guess. Once again I apologise for anybody that I have offended by what I said.-S

Subject: (mobility) Falwell & Robertson blame gays and liberals for WTC attack
Is this not one of the most horrible, unchristian assertions
you've ever heard? Sometimes I wonder what the difference is
between some of the more fundamentalist followers of Christ
and the followers of the Islamic Jihad.

Falwell blames gays, liberal groups for terrorist attacks
Anti-gay advocate makes remarks on æ700 ClubÆ broadcast;
Robertson nods approval
by Lou Chibbaro Jr.
Washington Blade
⌐ 2001, Window Media LLC
WASHINGTON, Thursday, Sept. 13 - The Rev. Jerry Falwell said
gays, feminists, "pagans," and a host of liberal advocacy
groups have made "God mad" and must share the blame for the
terrorist attacks this week that took the lives of thousands
of Americans at the World Trade Center in New York and at
the Pentagon outside Washington.
Falwell made his remarks Thursday, Sept. 13, while appearing
on the religious television program The 700 Club, hosted by
the Rev. Pat Robertson. Falwell and Robertson are among the
nationÆs strongest opponents of gay civil rights.
"I really believe that the pagans, and the abortionists, and
the feminists, and the gays and lesbians who are actively
trying to make that an alternative lifestyle, the ACLU,
People for the American Way ù all of them who have tried to
secularize America ù I point the finger in their face and
say, æYou helped this happen,Æ" Falwell said on the program,
which was broadcast nationally.
"Well, I totally concur," Robertson told Falwell, "and the
problem is we have adopted their agenda at the highest
levels of our government."
The comments by Falwell and Robertson came at a time when
gay activists have joined leading Republicans and Democrats
in calling for national unity and full, bipartisan support
for President BushÆs planned response to the terrorist
attacks.
"The terrible tragedy that has befallen our nation, and
indeed the entire global community, is the sad byproduct of
fanaticism," said Lorri L. Jean, executive director of the
National Gay and Lesbian Task Force.
"It has its roots in the same fanaticism that enables people
like Jerry Falwell to preach hate against those who do not
think, live, or love in the exact same way he does," Jean
said.
"The tragedies that have occurred this week did not occur
because someone made God mad, as Mr. Falwell asserts," Jean
continued, in a statement released Sept. 13. "They occurred
because of hate, pure and simple."
In separate statements released this week, the national gay
groups Log Cabin Republicans and National Stonewall
Democrats condemned the terrorist attacks and declared their
support for President BushÆs efforts to respond to the
incidents.
"Gay and Lesbian Americans across the nation are united
today," said Log Cabin executive director Rich Tafel. "In
the face of defending our nation together, all differences
fall away, and all other issues pale in comparison."
"This weekÆs tragedy truly asks all of us to come together
as a people to bury our dead, to comfort and heal all
families and to rebuild this strong nation," the National
Stonewall Democrats said in a statement. "Stonewall
Democrats join in solidarity with all Americans in placing
our loyal support behind our national government and our
president."
The group added, "Gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered
Americans also have paid with their lives and their honor,
and we join in saluting their sacrifices and those of every
American who suffered these terrible, senseless events."
"Now is the time to join together behind our president and
our government in defense of our nation," said Tafel of the
