#6 Why not have the Muslims carry buckets that they can fill with water and wash their feet? Why should *I* have to pay for some other religion, when the ACLU and other groups are working around the clock to remove any symbols, even historic ones, of my religion? Can't the Soddies or some other muslim group pay for the footbaths?

What! And forego the dhimmi jizya rightfully due them? I don't think so.

#8 I'll just add that it's nice to see high quality spitoons make a comeback.

#10 Let the friggin ACLU pay for them. I have a Constitutional right to use them as an urinal.

#12 Just watch ... they'll put a few in and someone will put a Koran in one or something ... and next thing ya know we'll have video cameras back in the flippin bathrooms to protect muslim thin skin.

#14 and next thing ya know we'll have video cameras back in the flippin bathrooms to protect muslim thin skin.

In other late breaking reports: Footbath video cameras routinely vandalized all across America. Crowds of thousands gather to cheer wildly.

#15 Quickest way to stop this is to let all good Christians know that they can use 'em too. The ACLU will shut the program down faster than Rosie O'Donnell can inhale a twinkie.

#17 Twenty-some years ago we discovered an amazing invention for our babies' dirty bottoms - wet wipes. The babies are grown, but we still take the wet wipes all sorts of places (Port-o-lets at JazzFest, for instance). I really do believe they would work just fine for Muslim feet, with a whole lot less cost and effort. And don't give me the "Mohammed didn't have wet wipes" arguement - he didn't have running water either.

#18 Will the footbaths look anything like the squat toilets so many around the world are accustomed to use?

#19 Will the footbaths look anything like the squat toilets so many around the world are accustomed to use?

They most certainly will if I get a "shot" at 'em.

#20 Why don't they just carry around sponges? Or wet-knaps? Why do we have to spend the cash -- and the space -- to replumb to accomodate their fetishes?

#21 they need to have shorting neon lights in them to look spiffy to mo-man.

#22 I can't force myself to read whatever the ACLU twit barfed up in this instance - does he make a single plausible analogy to any other public accommodation of this sort to any other religion?

Not a religious type myself, but I've long been appalled and outraged at the ACLU's jihad to drive religion (er, most religions) from the public square, where it sat quite comfortably as the US built the freest most open society on Earth. When the LA city council has removed a friggin' cross from the city seal - uh, you jackasses, the city's name is, uh, derived from a religious name - at the cost of thousands to the taxpayers, we have to watch this nonsense?

The only thing that I cling to for cheer amidst the cowardice and idiocy among normal folk and the pathologies ravaging jackasses like the ACLU is that enough people will be offended and astounded and afraid enough to show up at the polls next year and punish the party most associated with all this noxious silliness.

#25 The best way to look at this is that the Muzzy footbaths are similar to condom give aways for prostitutes and needle trade-ins for junkies. It's reprehensible and uses government money but the spread of disease is even worse. And having Muslims wash their feet in the sink cannot be very sanitary for the rest of us.

Still, I'd feel better about it if they had a coin operated stall around it the way bathrooms used to defend their toilets. That way they'd eventually pay for the footbath themselves. Of course you know the ACLU would be on that as well.

#26 the nice thing is: if you take a dump in one, they can probably push it through the drain strainer if ~~Allah wills it~~ they work at it

Jizya, RC, jizya. I've got their Jizzya, right here. Oops, did I misspell something?

#28 No Zen you spelled it right.

Picture this. We all know sooner or later some dog is going to drink out of one of these foot baths. Now that day will be darn funny.
