August 1, 2013 Refusing to be intimidated by CAIR-Minnesota Last week, the Minnesota affiliate of CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations), launched an all-out campaign to get two ACT! for America public events cancelled. CAIR-Minnesota failed, because ACT! for America and the host sites refused to knuckle under to this intimidation. We commend the two host sites for standing their ground in defense of free speech. CAIR-Minnesota employed the typical Muslim Brotherhood strategy, issuing press releases that engaged in name-calling, threats, disinformation and smear tactics (all in the name of tolerance, of course!). Minnesota is a hotbed for radical Islam and is the home to a congressman who proudly supports CAIR. It wasn’t surprising, then, to see CAIR-Minnesota’s efforts assisted by some gullible local media outlets.
The same thing happened a few months ago in Concrete, Washington, where CAIR-Washington tried to bully a teacher and the local school district. A rally in support of the teacher, which ACT! for America helped organize and publicize, drew so many people that hundreds stood outside the building, in the rain, looking in through the windows! We know that CAIR reads our national emails, so here’s a message for them:
