Did you forget about the Imam's that were flying out of Chicago for a PEACE CONFERENCE and were detained after they were praying at the gate and fellow passengers said they felt "uncomfortable" . Many Muslims are profiled by the TSA, ask a Muslim how his trip through security is.
While I agree that C-Dub's statement was false, please don't try to use the "Flying Imams" as an example of Muslims being profiled. First, they were
not stopped at the gate. They had actually boarded the plane
without being searched. Second, let's not forget the fact that they asked for seat belt extenders that they 1) didn't need, 2) didn't use, 3) placed on the floor of the cabin in such a way that they could get at them easily and quickly. Third, they were praying
loudly in an open public area. Every thing these Imams did was calculated to cause a disturbance and get as much attention as possible.
