In Minnesota:

In an attempt to report about the new findings from the Department of Education, 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS went to Tarik ibn Zayad Academy in Inver Grove Heights.

While on school grounds, our crew was attacked by school officials. Our photographer was injured while wrestling with the two men over the camera.

OK, this is a state funded private school.  The State Department of Education investigated and found they were breaking the law by teaching religion in a public school.  The TV station goes to do a followup news story and the reporters get mugged.

I was reading on Ed Morrisey’s post that the Minneapolis Star and Tribune has done some good work on this issue.  The reporter was rewarded with a petition by other “journalists” to fire her for her work.  After all we can’t hold Islam to the same rules we hold Catholics.  You know who I’d be firing. 

Back on the issue, is there any reason now for the state of Minnesota to fund this religious indoctrination center?  Look to the state government and Tim Pawlenty to try to do nothing. 

*Sigh* I see Rob beat me to the story.
