“I really don’t know because everybody has their own opinion and I respect it,” said Syeda Tahsina Mahmud, who is Muslim. “Everybody’s entitled to say whatever they want.”

“What is the intent behind it and what are we trying to prove by putting it on this pole so ambiguously,” said Shakeelur Rahman, the Imam of the Islamic Center of Burlington. “There is not a lot of clarity in it. I hope the person was trying to encourage people to look it up maybe or research it.”
