Protect Muslims from Paranoid Americans!

If you are visiting the mall one day, and you see several young men of obvious Arabic descent sneaking off nervously into an alleyway with suitcases and other unfamiliar paraphernalia, you, if you are an ordinary American citizen, are going to quickly find a law officer, or at the very least, a mall security officer and give him the details of what you’ve just seen. Right? After all, there is a war on terrorism going on, and this post 9/11 world is not what it used to be. No one would fault you for being suspicious after all, would they? Look out, John Doe. You just might get sued over it.

Remember Flight 300 and 6 Imams?

They were removed from the flight because of suspicious behavior.

"Witnesses said three of the imams were praying loudly in the concourse and repeatedly shouted 'Allah' when passengers were called for boarding US Airways Flight 300 to Phoenix. 'I was suspicious by the way they were praying very loud,' the gate agent told the Minneapolis Police Department. Passengers and flight attendants told law-enforcement officials the imams switched from their assigned seats to a pattern associated with the September 11 terrorist attacks and also found in probes of U.S. security since the attacks -- two in the front row first-class, two in the middle of the plane on the exit aisle and two in the rear of the cabin.

A google search will give you a lot of additional information from eyewitnesses and various news sources on the episode.

Well, it seems that the group of “humiliated” Muslims have filed a federal lawsuit “…against US Airways and unknown 'John Doe' passengers."

The imams were removed from US Airways Flight 300 on Nov. 20 after fellow passengers on the Minneapolis-to-Phoenix flight complained about the imams' suspicious behavior.”

This frivolous and unwarranted lawsuit resulted in several Republicans presenting an amendment that would have protected average “John Doe” citizens who report suspicious activity.

But…you guessed it. The Democrats – the bleeding heart liberals voted it down.

The Dems are not interested in protecting you and me. They’re more interested in playing “diplomacy” with their Muslim friends. Dems aren't interested in fighting terrorism. They're more interested in being friends with CAIR.

“This is a slap in the face of good citizens who do their patriotic duty and come forward, and it caves in to radical Islamists," said Rep. Peter T. King, New York Republican and ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee.”
