Sharia compliance at the YMCA swimming club in San Diego

KPBS in San Diego (via Diana West) writes a predictably sugar-coated report on the YMCA providing women-only hours for Muslim women from east Africa. And that's not all:

There are also cultural barriers that keep them from using the parks. The women can’t risk coming into contact with off-leash dogs. They follow strict hygiene guidelines in their faith, which considers dogs to be unclean, or not halal.

So they'd like to make the parks dog-free. Will Americans stand up for their puppies as much as they should for their pools?
