Mr. Reid.
Not for Brian I just wanted to in case anybody is not aware of what happened over the weekend there was supposed to be an open house at this facility on Sunday the original pamphlet that went out very clearly stated very clearly stated that this would be a gated fence Community operated under strict Sharia law. I don't know about anybody else in this room. I served three years in the Middle East that is not conducive to this Constitution of the United States. My worry about this is that these gentlemen standing behind me or anybody else in LaSalle County Law Enforcement will be called to that facility and not allowed through the gate. I have had the experience of seeing how Sharia law works I have seen people stoned to death. I have seen women beaten in the street just for being women. And I will not allow this in this county. I don't care this will not happen in this town County.. that's all I got to say.
Thank you, Mr Reid.
Thank you.
Oh, Ms. Eurich. [That's Nancy Eurich, La Salle County Board Member for District 26.]
1:46. Is Sharia law allowed in the United States?
No.
Okay. Okay, good.
Not constitutionally.
Mr. Chairman?
Yes.
The way they have these facilities set up around the country and if anybody's been watching the news a great example is Texas. There's a 350 acre facility and I believe it's just outside of Plano, Texas. It's gated it's fenced and they have armed security inside the fence. All right. I spent time in a blue uniform just like these men back here. I spent 13 years in the United States Marine. We are not going to be able to handle this if they come here. We do not need this in our county. We don't need this in our country. If they want to live under Sharia law go back to a Sharia country.
Mr chairman can we move on with the business of the board?
Yes we can Mr. Trager.
No it's not. It's not on the agenda.
It is.
It was not.
