Six Flags Controversy!

Just caught wind of this controversy involving the Six Flags in Chicago. (NOTE: from my understanding ALL Six Flags are corporately owned.).  In 2000 the Six Flags groups started a "Muslim Family Day" that is held always on September 12th, lining up with the ending of Ramadan.

This year there is a boycott being called against Six Flags as there are allegations against the Muslim group organizing this event at Six Flags because they could have been involved financially in the 9-11 attacks against America.  Some are saying the date of their "family day" is also offensive as it is the day after the most recent attacks that took place against America.

Clearly this is just the beginning of this issue but I wanted you to know that there are some questions regarding this corporate giant.  This is still America and the spending of our money is what gets corporations attention.  You decide.
