A Muslim school has filed a lawsuit against the city of Wilmington for enforcing its public school attire policy. Before we get into the details of this latest Islamic supremacist lawsuit, a couple of points:
The reason Muslim women are required to wear those suffocating Islamic garments is to cover up their sexuality so that men are not tempted and Muslimas are not subjected to unwelcome male advances. Why are little Muslim girls required to wear them? Are they considered sexual objects? Why do little Muslim girls have to cover up their sexuality? And why must the West sanction and conform to this perversion?
The pool manager at the Foster Brown pool in Wilmington, Delaware repeatedly told Islamic camp leaders that cotton clothing was not allowed in the pool. The cotton ban is a safety issue, since cotton becomes heavy when wet and could strain the pool’s filtration system.

The Islamic camp director Tahsiyn Ismaa’eel, who brought her devout students to the secular public pool, said staffers at the pool asked her when she was going to leave after advising her of the cotton clothing prohibition. Ismaa’eel said she eventually decided to pull the kids out of the pool.
“If you are making us so uncomfortable that we aren’t enjoying a public facility, if you’re pressuring us by asking what time we’re going to leave … I got the message,” she said.
So she chose to leave, but is suing nonetheless.
Why are Western societies forced to conform to barbaric Islamic mores and traditions? Of course, the mayor of Wilmington, Delaware, has apologized to the Islamic school after a group of Muslim girls wearing islamic garb were asked to leave a public pool.
Muslim Advocates, the group representing the school, said it was too little too late, and demanded sensitivity training for pool staff and an investigation into the pool’s treatment of the children.
Muslim School Sues Delaware City For Kicking Children Out Of Pool Over Islamic Clothing
A Muslim school filed a lawsuit against the city of Wilmington, Delaware, after several students were kicked out of a public pool for wearing Islamic clothing.
Joshua Gill, Daily Caller, August 23, 2018:
Tahsiyn Ismaa’eel, principal of the Darul Amaanah Academy, claimed that staff at Foster Brown pool forced seven students, aged 5 to 12, to leave the pool for wearing hijabs, T-shirts, and leggings in the water. The lawsuit alleges that pool staff forced the children to leave early on four subsequent occasions, with recreation staff citing an unofficial rule against cotton clothing in the pool.
“As a result of their treatment at Foster Brown (pool), many of the children have come home in tears, shattered by their treatment by city employees and questioning whether their Islamic faith makes them unwelcomed and unwanted,” the Wednesday lawsuit states, according to the Delaware News Journal.
The lawsuit asks that the court order a declaration that city officials violated the rights of the school’s children, an extension of the 2019 pool season to compensate the children, a ban on officially adopting a rule against cotton clothing in pools, and “conspicuous signs” saying that pool employees are prohibited from engaging in discriminatory behavior, among other things.
The city initially supported pool management’s decision to ask the children to leave on the grounds that they were wearing improper swimwear that, according to pool staff, could clog the filtration system and could also inhibit the children’s ability to swim.
“There are city rules and regulations designed to ensure the safety of those who use the pools,” John Rago, the mayor’s deputy chief of staff for policy and communication, said on July 14. “One of the rules requires that all swimmers wear proper swimming attire.”
City officials swiftly changed their tune once the story spread nationally. Mayor Mike Purzycki, a Democrat, issued an apology to the children just hours after Rago’s statement.
“I apologize to the children who were directed to leave a city pool because of the religious-required clothing they were wearing,” Purzycki said, according to Delaware Online. “We also referred to vaguely-worded pool policies to assess and then justify our poor judgment, and that was also wrong.”
The city has reassigned the pool staff member who repeatedly asked the children to leave and has also promised to create clearer policies regarding swimwear, according to The Associated Press.
Muslim Advocates, the group representing the school, said it was too little too late, and demanded sensitivity training for pool staff and an investigation into the pool’s treatment of the children.
“None of that has materialized in any meaningful way,” said Juvaria Khan, a Muslim Advocates attorney.
Delaware Mayor Apologizes After Muslim Kids In Shirts, Hijabs, Kicked Out Of City Pool
Camp director Tahsiyn A. Ismaa’eel believes city officials used a vaguely worded policy to keep her students out of the pool.

The mayor of Wilmington, Delaware, has apologized to a local Islamic school after a group of Muslim children wearing shirts, shorts and hijabs were pressured to leave a public pool.
Mayor Mike Purzycki admitted in a statement Saturday that city officials at the Foster Brown public pool “used poor judgment” in response to the students’ religious clothing requirements.
“We should be held accountable for what happened and how poorly we assessed this incident,” he said. “I apologize to the children who were directed to leave a city pool because of the religious-required clothing they were wearing.”
The statement was a reversal of the officials’ initial reaction, which was to speak of unspecified city policies about bathing suit requirements.
In his apology, Purzycki said that the city “referred to vaguely-worded pool policies to assess and then justify our poor judgement, and that was also wrong.”

Tahsiyn Ismaa’eel, the camp director the Darul-Amaanah Academy summer program in Wilmington, Delaware, says children in the program were harassed multiple times about their swimwear at a public pool.
The children are part of a summer Arabic enrichment program run by the Darul-Amaanah Academy, a local Islamic school. For the past four years, students in the program have visited the Foster Brown pool.
Camp director Tahsiyn Ismaa’eel told HuffPost that some girls in the program prefer to wear T-shirts and leggings in the pool. Some also cover their hair with headscarves while swimming. The students’ pool attire conforms with their families’ interpretation of Islamic rules about modest clothing.
Other religious groups, including some Orthodox JewsandChristians, also encourage members to wear modest clothing while swimming.
Ismaa’eel said she didn’t have any issues with pool management before. But on June 25, the first day of camp this year, facility managers reportedly had a negative reaction to the clothes that the kids wore in the pool.
She said the pool manager repeatedly told camp leaders that cotton clothing was not allowed in the pool. She said staffers at the pool asked her when she was going to leave.
Ismaa’eel said she eventually decided to pull the kids out of the pool.
“If you are making us so uncomfortable that we aren’t enjoying a public facility, if you’re pressuring us by asking what time we’re going to leave … I got the message,” she said.
Ismaa’eel reached out to Wilmington’s parks and recreation department about the episode. Despite receiving assurance from the department that her kids could wear religious attire in the public pool, she said, she was harassed about the swimwear policy on three other occasions.
She said no rule prohibiting cotton clothing is posted at the facility. She added that she believes management enforced regulations in a way that discriminated against her students.
“The bottom line is, if you have a policy, it has to be written, posted and applied across the board ― not arbitrarily,” she said.

Moslems always demand preferential treatment to the detriment of others. Let them swim. Let them drown.
At this point they are trying to make us drown. Or burned, or beheaded. They shouldn’t be allowed to enter US from the first place. Please read the Immigration Law as of June 27, 1952 prohibiting pissslam in USA. Nobody has ever repealed this law. They just don’t want to implement it. We don’t have AG. Trey Gowdy for AG!
McCarran Walter Act of 1952. It was modified about 1970, however, it remains basically the same. NO ORGANIZATIONS, and thus also the adherents of that organization, ALLOWED that want to DESTROY America or Americans.
Bravo! I keep reminding about this Act as of June 27,1952. The majority have no clue about it.
Unfortunately WH doesn’t want to implement it. Otherwise all the problems with this invasion wouldn’t occur at the first place. It’s NOW or NEVER!

Their recent holiday eid adha is fake. Their celebrating Abraham willing to sacrifice his son. Genesis makes it clear it was Isaac…but islum changed the story to say it was Ishmael
This barbarian “holiday” of slaughtering of animals on the streets halalalala way has nothing to do with Jews. Where is this come from?Total bullshit

What did that idiot apologise for? This is ridiculous. The are trying to change our laws to suit their idiotic cult! Let them sue. Probably the first bath those kids have had all year! I hope of the little bastards drowns.
Just like LGBTQ+ groups are demanding our laws change to suit them – and especially those who claim to be “transgender,” all as a front for sex offenders who “dress up” to do harm to women and children in women’s rooms.
Exactly. I’ve seen it in my fitness club. LifeTime Fitness. Their females started to swim in their burkas. No kidding. I bet they were born in it and will die in it without the washing. I’ve complained to the manager of the club, and she responded that it’s their custom to swim in their garment. I’ve indicated that I’m also an immigrant(legal) from Eastern Europe. And our European custom is to swim in the military boots. I’ve promised the manager to come the next day in my boots and swim in it. I am too humble to credit myself for the stopping their females to swim in their rags. But I haven’t seen them in it swimming since that day. But still they come in T-Shorts and leggings though,
I guess it’s a good way to take a bath and do their laundry at the same time.

The USA had better get a tight grip on Islam’s political system and legal code, sharia law. The USA must NEVER bow down to sharia law…NEVER. Islam’s political system and legal code, sharia law, is the antithesis of the USA’s Republic, Constitution and Rule of Law. The USA needs to make it MANDATORY that muslims assimilate in western culture. Knowing that islam doesn’t allow muslims to assimilate into western culture could be a way of getting rid of these muslim invaders. All mosques need to be torn down, mandatory assimilation of all muslims into western culture…These two things are key in controlling or getting rid of the muslim invaders.
I have another idea: cut off the (welfare) money. Our lawmakers don’t have the courage, they are playing in the largest piggy bank in the world-nd don’t give a damn about the American people

In response to the question . . . “Why are Western societies forced to conform to barbaric Islamic mores and traditions?”
. . . it’s for the same reason why Christians, others of faith, and adherents of traditional morality are increasingly forced to conform to amoral, degenerated, radical fringe Greenwich Village/San Francisco/Fire Island “values” laid down by LGBTQ+ supremacist “leadership.” Ask, say, Jack Phillips about that. Or various Catholic Charities in numerous cities and states that have had to discontinue adoption programs for children in foster care because of the dictates that those children be placed ONLY with same-sex couples, and that such couples be given preferential treatment over heterosexual married couples. Either on that end or with Islam, Western society in any event is ultimately doomed.
Yet one more example of how, among the Left, “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” trumps everything else – even one group’s self-preservation against those who wish to slit their throats.
Not only that, most if not all gays often morally equate Christianity with Islam, to justify their hatred of and drive to destroy the Judeo-Christian roots of our society.
Islam is much worse by far than even the most “fundamentalist” forms of Christianity. Even in Western countries, very few mosques support homosexuality.
You know it and I know it. Plus Christians’ evolution into the stance of “love the sinner but hate the sin.”

“As a result of their treatment at Foster Brown (pool), many of the
children have come home in tears, shattered by their treatment by city
employees and questioning whether their Islamic faith makes them
unwelcomed and unwanted,” ‘Hey kids, that’s true. You’re not welcome. Why? Because you’re fellow dirty night shirt wearers continually pull this kind of sh*t wherever you people go. THAT’S why you people are unwelcome.
“Mayor Mike Purzycki, a Democrat, issued an apology to the children just hours after Rago’s statement. “I apologize to the children who were directed to leave a city pool because of the religious-required clothing they were wearing,” Purzycki said, according to Delaware Online. “We also referred to vaguely-worded pool policies to assess and then justify our poor judgment, and that was also wrong.”
What a spineless, milksop. He caved. The people of Delaware City can be real proud of a city official who bows at the feet of a group of degenerates who make illegitimate complaints and frivolous lawsuits. Yes, they all deserve each other.

Stop apologizing!!! Its a SAFETY issue, not cultural. If you want to wrap up in a bedsheet and swim, open your own muslim pool.
What if it is cultural issue? If they don’t like the US culture get lost and go back. There should be zero tolerance for the barbarians cultural imposition to other countries. The most racist bunch of begots are far worse than Nazis can ever be and the so called lefts are supporting or turning a blind eye on their aggressions.

Let’s repeat and repeat it more often. Shame to all who is bending in front of these bold stinkers. They all must be deported before it’s too late. In fact it’s pretty late already.

If aliens come here to America, they must respect the laws of the land. If they don’t like it, they must leave and go somewhere else. End of sentence!
Perceived that someone would reply with such a comment. By no means are our current laws perfect. Already know that some states or some cities have attempted take away freedoms drafted in the U.S. Constitution, and that paves the way for aliens (e.g. muslims) trying to change our system of law. Only good leadership would get tough with those aliens who attempt to bring in a culture of violence, honor killing, or anything they consider “diversity”.
SemurJengkolMaknyus, the current condition in our nation, such as the murder rate in Chicago, is indeed true. And such evil has primed an atmosphere of immorality and violence among the so-called “religious” and the secular, and opened wide the gates for immigrants who only believe in the culture of violence.
But there are Americans (“we the people”) who are fed up with it, and are ready to vote for good leadership, and turn their hearts to seek the Lord their God who caused this nation to exist.
This, however, has nothing to do with the point in my previous comments. If anyone else comes here, he/she must comply with our laws, and not force their culture on us.

The apologies have already gone too far. Stop apologizing immediately and suggest that the groups requiring special accommodations build their own facilities. There is NO JUSTIFICATION WHATSOEVER for western culture and society to cater to the requests and requirements of a religion/society that prefers to live by the standards set down 1500 years ago and adopted by ignorant semi-savage tribes following the dictates of a misogynist pedophile.
If life in a western environment is so troubling, they can return from whence they came.

Well I must be doing something right. There was on picture similar to this on Pat Condell’s section of Facebook, except the burka was completely drenched. My comment was that “they should throw her into shark infested water to see if it was as naturally repellant as it was on land”. Evidentially that was against “community standards” (you who who’s) and I was banned from Facebook. Ok to call Jews pigs, or put hateful verses of the Koran on there saying kill all the Jews, but a humorous joke is obscene. Definitely time for a class action for anyone who been ejected for so called “Islamophobia” before EU/Canadian laws about “slandering Islam” come over here. They’ll throw you in jail for “insulting the prophet”. If we can’t use public forums then we need to use the court system while we still have a sympathetic ear in the WH.

My family owns a large tract of land in Delaware that’s been in our family since the eighteen hundreds. My mother wants to give it to me, but can’t sell until her death. I turned her down knowing it would set me up for life since what good is property in a liberal hell hole now claimed by all the liberals moving in from high taxes states nearby. My family states that they move in, claim control though votes(even locally) and change it to the hellholhe they just left. Since ImI the oldest, I will probably wait to honor her wishes and divide the funds to the reamaining heirs. Tennessee has been great home for twenty eight years.

I grew up in Wilmington, DE. Left there when I was 17 and never went back.
I’ve driven through there a few times and went by my old stomping grounds once, just to see what had changed.
It was a shithole then and it looks as if it’s only gotten worse.
At least when I was a kid, we didn’t have this to contend with among all the other problems.

They cannot require the deletion of a rule that is clearly for pool safety. If the Muslims do not like this they can build their own private pool. Further, if they are not going to swim why are they there? They are just occupying space that a swimmer could use. Obey the rules if you are going to swim. If they are not going to obey the rules the pool personnel are within their rights to bar you from swimming and ask you to leave. It is a frivolous lawsuit. That is how they conduct lawfare!
