Islam March on Capitol Hill

Washington, D.C. - On September 25th there will be a national prayer gathering of Muslims on the west front of the U.S. Capitol Building. They are expecting at least 50,000 to attend from mosques all across America. They will gather to pray from 4:00 AM until 7:00 PM. The gathering will take place by the site where U.S. Presidents have been inaugurated since 1981. The organizers say that it was Obama's inauguration speech in January and his speech broadcast from Egypt in June that gave them the idea for this prayer gathering on Capitol Hill.

I think with anything like that a permit is required. In our city we have to have a permit for a public gathering.

Christian groups get permits for this kind of thing every year. In the last year I have been to two events on the mall that attracted significantly more praying Christians than this event. One was The Call, and the other was the March for life.

A crowd estimated at more than 300,000 took to the streets of Washington, DC on January 22, 2009 to express their dissatisfaction with 36 years of political indifference to the tragedy known as the American holocaust.

Not sure what the attendance was at the call but it was larger than 50,000.

Yes, you have to have a permit to do these events.

Re: Islam March on Capitol Hill

OOOOOOO....the "scary part" So what? It's a simple march. What's so scary about it? You people are hilarious. You fear nothing (mingling around each other) on sunday nite then spend the rest of the week scared of what the obamanation will do or the muslims will do or what will happen to your healthcare or jillions of other things that you have no power over anyway.

Your faith in your God is impressive. The example you set is pathetic.
