1. How exactly will a publicly funded American school get out of control to the point that it can't be shut down if it violates the its mandated as stated by those proposing and supporting the idea
Publicly funded schools have gotten out of hand routinely in America, and particularly so in NY. The real question is whether funding a Madrassa in Brooklyn is a valid use of educational funds (Think about it).
2. Describe to me EXACTLY what the culture of an entire nation of immigrants, established by the forced displacement of the indigenous culture, consists of.
The culture consists of AMERICAN culture. Which is, in part, based on separation of church and state. Espousal of religiously motivated law and supremacy of a particular race are best left to private institutions. (Think about it).
3. Is it un-American to tell the truth?
No, of course not. It is un-American to publicly support separatist groupthink activities which perpetuate ghettoization and marginalization. (Isn't it?)
Peace
