According to Jillian Bandes at Townhall.com, the big Muslim gathering in Washington D.C. was pretty much a bust.

She also notes the presence of Christian protestors, preaching through bullhorns “to disrupt the prayers.”

That’s just embarrassing. I abhor the religion of Islam (as opposed to its adherents, whom I respect as fellow human beings to the degree that they individually deserve it), but this is America, and people have the right to pray in peace. I wouldn’t like it if they disrupted our prayers, and they deserve the same courtesy. Sheesh.
