WND reports:
The city of Dearborn, Mich., has agreed to pay Christians who were arrested at its Arab International Festival in 2010, remove all criticism of them from a city website and post a public apology that will remain online for years, according to a legal team on the case.
The American Freedom Law Center said today that the settlement follows more than two years of court negotiations and resolves the Christians’ claims against the city.
It does not, however, remove the Dearborn Arab Chamber as a defendant in the case, which will continue.

On the other hand, more violence and actual infringement of civil rights of Christians were perpetrated by Muslims last year in that city:
In the same report, WND says:
The tensions in Dearborn, actually, has deteriorated since 2010. A video made during the 2012 event shows a crowd of angry Muslims throwing chunks of concrete and eggs at a different and unconnected team of Christians, spraying them with urine and cursing at them as police stood by and then threatened the victims with “disorderly conduct.”
A lawsuit has been filed over that confrontation as well.
The video says authorities not only failed to protect the Christians, they ordered them to leave the Arab festival under threat of arrest for “disorderly conduct.”
However, not one Muslim was arrested for the attack, which left several members of the Christian group bloodied, the video says....
Despite the attacks the Christians had endured, a man identified in the video as Deputy Chief Dennis Richardson of the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office tells them, “You’re a danger to the safety right now.”
