Infernal amplified chanting heard for blocks by Barclays Arena



No need to worry, Saudi Arabia is our "ally" and are a great and reliant customer of our beautiful weapons. And Al Qaeda wound up being very useful too as proxies in Syria and Yemen. I think our derelict mayor and quixotic presidential candidate would call this vibrancy in action.

Trump would love this. Saudis are his friends.

Identity politics at it's worst. Ironic that statues in this city have been taken down, but this is just fine. Who would have ever thought, especially since 911 was not that long ago. AND this has nothing to do with freedom of religion, this has to do with laws about noise pollution.

I am probably the only one with this opinion, but I always thought that ground zero should have been a memorial national park instead of building new towers there. Kind of like what they have in Pearl Harbor, the last attack on this nation.

Went to a church in Elmhurst that was afraid to ring its bell as they were concerned that the diverse neighbors would take offense.

This call to prayer is not just heard in Saudi Arabia but throughout the Muslim world.

Certainly the 5AM thing is a pain but aside from that, as long as I can hear the church bells ringing a couple of times a day in Bay Ridge, you'll be hearing the call to prayer in Cobble Hill. Either ban all or allow them. not just the ones that best suit your ears, or emotions for that matter.

JQ: there IS a park and memorial there. Very meditative. Check it out HERE.

Let's see if this same guy complains about the firecrackers that will soon be going off all over the city neighborhoods.

You write the amplified chanting is "infernal"? I'm sure it's music to the Musselman's ears.

@Richard

I should have wrote off-key apologies for any latent xenophobia.

@Anon re:firecrackers.

In my town, fireworks have been going off everyday since April. I remember as a young misfit growing up in _______ fireworks went off everyday in June right before the 4th, especially around the bicentennial. Pineapples, M-80's and um what were called nigger chasers were the most popular and easily accessible. People were sick back then

@GTA.

Oh I know about the reflecting pool, it is beautiful, but that memorial has become a place for reprehensible social media cellphone photo junkies.

What I actually meant was for no buildings to be built at all. An entire green space and even a cemetery and museum so all will really never forget. Especially now with hundreds more that died when they served the city and country by cleaning up the disaster site after being lied to by Bush and Cheney's EPA commissioner Christie Todd Whitman about the air quality and actual toxicity

"Gothamistan".

Oh that is very very very funny. Not towards that annoying mosque but to that annoying infotainment blog.

This is the same call to prayer shit they have in London under the Muslim mayor. Repeater systems speakers with 600 watt amplifiers atop buildings every 1/4 mile in steel cages with backup battery's.
Churches don't have a networked PA system across whole city's, it should be illegal because it can be used as a citywide command post to cue flash mob terrorism and overwhelm the police and EMS.
London has turned to shit.

The anti-Semites who opposed USA action in the mideast brought the muslims here.
You know the pasties who marry Mexicans and their kids marry muslims

Apples and Oranges, not even close. Bells ringing for a short period of time are completely different from an ongoing message being blasted 5 times a day. What is there not to get.

I really love Queens Crap and the articles that you put forward but can you please restrict some of the racist comments that appear in this comment section.

It should be illegal to hold an assembly in any language other than English.
We are at war and we have no idea what they are saying.

@Anon re: racist comments

Apologies for that, but just because they are published does not give them validity, at all. But they are voices that have to be heard also and the best way to reduce them is to respond to them. Restricting them only makes things worse.

Which is why I published the last one too(re: illegal non-English assembly)

I will say this: FREEDOM OF SPEECH and that includes Racist comments, the far left woke folks, the far right religious nuts, etc, etc. FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

In the first amendment of the constitution it's called freedom of speech, not freedom of speech...just watch what you say. (The latter is an Ice-T song)

Racism - the new code for doublespeak

I'm looking for the racist comment! I don't see any flagrant racism in this column. Mostly it's criticism of an abuse of the our Constitution by a religion that hates all other religions to the point of committing acts of violence against them for not converting to their religion. That's just the bare truth. No racism at all. Most of us in America do not care how other people worship, or don't. But the hatred and violence has to be addressed. Good column.

Oh HELL no!!!
No one should be allowed to broadcast ANYTHING into the public space but especially not this crap. They have a lot of nerve.

Roger said...

O My God! This is almost as loud as the hundreds of cars that drive through Brooklyn blaring music. But we should definitely just focus on this noise and not any other.

Damn right. The pasties wanted their Balkan war but betrayed us in the middle east. Yet they want an excuse to crybaby pork us. War, Quakes and hurricanes ALL cause pulmonary alveolar proteinosis: Thousands of Iraq and Afghanistan vets have respiratory problems that affect their daily lives, but few of them — or their doctors — know enough about war-related lung conditions to seek care or diagnose a disorder, says Dr. Anthony Szema, an assistant professor at Hofstra North Shore-LIJ School of Medicine and adjunct professor at Stony Brook University in New York. . . We report a unique case of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis that developed 3 weeks after the Great East Japan Earthquake and the subsequent tsunami. The patient had inhaled dust repeatedly while visiting her devastated neighborhood without wearing a protective mask. . . This study provides further evidence that workers performing restoration work on flood-damaged structures are at risk of respiratory health impacts from exposure to microbial-contaminated dust and debris.

The pasties? Sounds racist to me. If you dont like "the pasty" people then why do you even live in America?

The pasties opposed the Civil War, which is why their Brooklyn Eagle was banned

Read David Frum's "Unpatriotic Conservatives." The pasties only care about pork which is how manure blighted their potatoes. What about when the pasties roughed up Dwight Moody in Chicago a century and a half ago. A good Brexit in the eye will teach them.
