Baltimore Co. schools won't be closing for Muslim holidays

TOWSON, Md. —Baltimore County officials narrowly voted to keep schools open on Muslim holidays, prompting shouts of "Injustice!" from some members of the public.

The Baltimore County Board of Education on Tuesday voted 6-5 against closing schools for the two most important Muslim holidays when they fall on school days.

The vote followed an emotional discussion among school board members, while dozens of Muslims stood in the audience.

They shouldn't be closing for muslim holidays, this is America, United Stated of America, not a muslim country. Anyone wants to celebrate those holidays, you are welcome to leave.

Good. There is no reason schools should close for such a small minority.

If someone gets offended, they need to get out and go to Muslim country. That is the only place that should observe their own holiday

They no longer close for Christian holidays. They now close for winter break or spring break. It was determined years ago that schools don't close for religious holidays. The people that voted for them to close should have known that.

6-5 vote. It won't be long until the Muslims get their holidays. All its gonna take is one more liberal on the board to swing the vote in favor of the Muslims.

I said the same thing but it was like a 5 to 4 vote. Funny thing is the can't stand Christian Holidays, but the Libtards will bend over backwards for the Goat Fg people that will chop their head off in a heart beat.

I've got a better idea you stupid idiot. Why don't you just tell them to go back to where they came from.
