Welcome to a new DML short. Quick hits of insight making you the smartest person in the room.

You want some good news? I got some great news. It's coming out of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. You ever hear of that place?

Well, there's a whole Islamic group in Tulsa who bought property years ago in Broken Arrow, and it is 15 acres.

They wanted to build a 42,000 square foot facility with a mosque and a civic center and clinics

and everything you don't want in your backyard, all right,

unless, of course, you live in Dearborn, Michigan.

So the plans for this project were presented to the city council.

The city council gave them over to the planning board.

Everybody took a look at it and said, absolutely, start digging.

Well, the people in Oklahoma, Broken Arrow, said, oh, not in my backyard. You think I'm going to be

listening to Coles to prayer five times a day, and I'm going to be driving down the road and seeing

Ahmad and Muhammad doing prayer rugs in the middle. I got to roll around them. No freaking chance. We're

going to see Broken Arrow go Islamic. We are not going to be the next chapter in the Islamic

takeover of the United States of America. So they pushed back. The Attorney General of

the state launched an investigation into, where's the money coming from for all of this. So it was a

concerted effort to stop this from happening. And it was going to be a tough one because like I said,

they had already given the approval for the plans to move forward. Well, let's go to last night.

So many people were showing up for the city council meeting that was called about this,

that they had to actually move where the meeting would be held to a university so this way

they could accommodate the thousands of people who were going to show up to speak their minds.

This thing went on for four hours. Resident after resident after resident, got up and said their peace.

You're not having this in my backyard. There's so many different concerns. Terrorism.
