And sadly, those who can't afford to leave will have to pick up the tab. I saw a video of Brooklyn the other day where speakers were blaring a loud call to Muslim prayer. Imagine this once Irish /Italian borough, used to melodic church bells ringing on the hour, now must endure the screeching sounds of a call to worship Allah. 911 is barely in our rear view mirror and we have not only forgotten, we have rewarded! God help us!
