Marriott refuses to host terror conference

[TigerHoya]

I've never heard this group but based on their website they seem to be out there (I say this as someone who is conservative on most issues.)

The Hoya's story:

I finally found the group's site since it's the People's Truth Forum and not the We the People Truth Forum as IDed by the Hoya.

The fact that CAIR is hosting a conference at a Marriott in N. VA has apparently set things off too.

My fiancee previously worked in hotel F&B/sales management and even for Marriott at one point. She said the fact that a corporate statement was issued probably means the decision came down from corporate, which is hardly a group of leftwingers.

Seems like a fun group - although putting a picture of a beheaded little girl on your web site is negative 1,000,000 points in the class department.

My thoughts exactly.

While it is very important to leave no doubt as to what the terrorists in question did to not one but three innocent children for being Christians, the actual pictures should perhaps have been relegated to another page with the warning "pictures of graphic violence" to warn viewers who don't want to see such pictures not to click on the link.

Similarly, I believe that pictures of the burning World Trade Center should be posted as often as possible to remind us of what we are fighting and why, although pictures of people falling (or jumping, to avoid being burned to death) should be posted on separate pages with a warning that those who don't like to see graphic violence shouldn't click on the links.
