The Empire State Building will no longer be dedicated to these displays that ignore our national heritage. Seeing them finally backtrack makes me realize how much our persistent pressure really changed the outcome. Keep your eyes on the horizon because we must stay sharp to ensure our symbols remain for …
Petition to stop government approved appeasement of islamics. Ramadan has shown how keen our politicians are to appease the Muslims. This is evidenced by hosting the muslims for a Ramadan celebration and lighting up the Empire State Building for the celebration of Eid. The only other time the EMpire State Building is illuminated is on the 4th of July. Is there any comparison between the celebration of independance and the acknowledgement of an ideology that seeks to attack the very roots of our independance. Is it right that our goverment gives in so easily to pressure from a group of people who in reality refuse to assimilate into the society they have adopted as their home.
I have been reading through the deeply personal stories left in the comments and it confirms why I started this fight. Watching our civic symbols be co-opted while our concerns are ignored motivates me to push harder for accountability.

Seeing this groundswell of support confirms that I am not alone in my frustration with these displays at the Empire State Building. It is clear that many others feel our national heritage is being sidelined and I am heartened by the resolve shown here.

Whatever happened to assimilation? If you come here you should be one of us not demanding we change for you.

Enough is enough. Keep our holidays for us. This is becoming a total joke in our own country.

TRULY DISGUSTED. The building should only shine for our country not for an ideology that hates us.

Sick of seeing this constant pandering. Politicians need to wake up and start representing the people who actually built this nation.
