It is a poor business practice to allow the pro-terrorism, anti-American Hizb ut Tahrir America their right to assemble and speak at the Hilton Oak Lawn. They have HAD their assemblies. They have EXERCISED their freedom of speech. And, from such past assemblies and exercises, they have advocated the downfall of our American democracy and lifted Caliphate rule to take its place. Please do not forget that Al Qaeda assembled in New York City in 1982-83, exercised their freedom of speech and used their right to bear arms on the practice range. The result was the first attack on the World Trade Center.

My wife and I hope to visit Chicago in our retirement years. However, we will inform others of your choice to allow Hizt ut Tahrir America to assemble at your facility. It just seems rather incongruous that you are also hosting, with patriotic aplomb, the [American] Wounded Warriors Project.
