Dem Rep. Invites Tony Perkins To See Mythical Minneapolis 'No-Go Zones'http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/no-go-zones-minneapolis-ellison-tony-perkins
Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN) invited Family Research Council President Tony Perkins to Minneapolis last week after Perkins said that Muslims had established "no-go zones," in the Minnesotan city.
In response to a caller on Perkin's show, "Washington Watch," on Friday, who claimed that the "Muslim community" had established "no-go zones" in France, Perkins said that while he could not verify the "military-type training," he did accept that Europe -- and some American cities -- had these so-called "no-go zones." (The no-go zones in France are a debunked conservative myth.)
"I mean, we saw the effect of that in France, where they have like 700 no-go zones, where authorities have allowed basically Sharia law to be imposed," Perkins said, according to audio posted by Right Wing Watch. "There are some areas in this country that, in effect, that has occurred. Dearborn, Michigan, is one of the places. There are some places in Minneapolis. I don’t think it’s as clear-cut as what we’ve seen in Europe. It’s been more by the effect that that’s occurred."
Ellison, who represents Minneapolis in Congress, invited Perkins to the city so he could see that the Muslim "no-go zones" are actually a myth. The congressman posted the invitation to Twitter on Wednesday afternoon.
"You recently said that you believe parts of our city are so called 'no-go zones' where state and federal laws are subordinate to Sharia Law. Having lived in Minneapolis for over two decades, I can assure you this is not true," Ellison said in a letter. "But I would like you to come see firsthand that Minneapolis is an inclusive and thriving city completely under the jurisdiction of local, state, and federal authorities. The Muslim Americans in Minneapolis help make our city a vibrant and diverse place to live."
The congressman also offered to arrange meetings between Perkins and law enforcement officials in Minnesota.

Holy shit, that guy. That BEARD. Does he think that beard makes him attractive? WHY.
That is a really unfortunate beard.He needs to do something like this with it:
There are places in this country where a particular ethnicity or religion have predominant influence. There are parts of NY where Hasidic Jews operate very conservative practices with regard to what women wear.
How is this still a thing in NY in 2015 :mindblown
