Texas Faith Fest attendees reveal how they plan to make life as 'uncomfortable' as possible for Muslims living in Lone Star State

[DM] Conservative Texas state lawmakers have shared their plans to make life as 'uncomfortable' as possible for Muslims living in the state.

The politicians spoke about restricting services for what they called a 'hostile alien civilization' at the 'Don't Sharia My Texas' panel of the Texas Faith Fest on Saturday.

Some of the ideas floated were preventing vouchers from going to Islamic schools, a call for banning public institutions from serving halal food and prohibiting calls to prayer from playing over loudspeakers, the Houston Chronicle reports.

'The more uncomfortable they are the better,' State Rep Keresa Richardson said.

Muslim people make up only about two percent of the Lone Star State's population.

But they have become an increasing focus in Texas politics ever since a Dallas-area mosque shared its plans to build a 'Muslim-centric' neighborhood last year.

That’s the East Plano Islamic Community (EPIC) mosque. The community was originally called EPIC City, but last year it was renamed The Meadow, in a move that they hoped would fool everyone.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott has spoken out against the project, directing a series of state agencies to investigate it.

He has since also called for funding freezes and investigations into airports that had facilities built for Muslim pre-prayer washing.

Then, at the Republican National Convention in Dallas last month, Abbott vowed to 'fully ban sharia law in Texas.'

Anyone having reviewed the 1,416 year history of Islamic Quran, it wars, and Muhammad teachings. Will see it is a following based on war, to gain absolute rule and control.

With that said here is the USA we may have problem.
The US Constitution clearly prohibits Congress from establishing a religion or restricting free speech and assembly.

So I expect to see a mega-Law-fare effort on this.

Now the question is .....Will the LSD's use this to rewrite the constitution and our rights?

kosher vs halal

**Kosher** and **Halal** are distinct dietary laws rooted in Jewish and Islamic traditions, respectively, sharing prohibitions on pork and blood but differing significantly in other areas. While many Muslims consume Kosher meat, **Kosher food is not automatically Halal** due to the allowance of alcohol and the lack of individual religious invocations during slaughter. Conversely, **Halal food is not considered Kosher** because it lacks strict meat-dairy separation, specific animal restrictions (like camel or rabbit), and rigorous post-slaughter processing.

**Key Differences:**

* **Alcohol:** Kosher law permits alcohol if derived from Kosher sources, whereas **Halal law strictly prohibits** all alcohol in any form.
* **Meat and Dairy:** Kosher requires **strict separation** of meat and dairy products in preparation and consumption, while Halal allows them to be mixed.
* **Slaughter Invocation:** Halal requires the name of Allah to be recited for **each individual animal**, while Kosher requires a blessing for the slaughterer at the start of the day.
* **Seafood:** Kosher restricts seafood to fish with **fins and scales**, forbidding shellfish; Halal generally permits all aquatic animals, including shellfish, depending on the school of jurisprudence.
* **Post-Slaughter Processing:** Kosher meat undergoes **salting and soaking** to remove blood and requires the removal of the sciatic nerve, processes not required for Halal meat.
* **Permitted Animals:** Kosher allows only animals with split hooves that chew cud, while Halal also permits **camels, rabbits, and certain fowl** not considered Kosher.

6 All true. More briefly, beyond which animals are permitted, kosher is mostly a strict health and hygiene thing, with some ritual, while halal is primarily ritual. Moslems are specifically permitted to eat kosher meat if halal is not available, while the reverse is not true for Jews who keep kosher. The Moslem rule that animals that have been s3xually molested can be slaughtered and sold in the next village would never fly under the rules of kashrut.
