RSSThe Obligatory Muslims removed from Plane Posting
Paleo Pat | January 2, 2009
Yes, I know about it.
I have very mixed feelings. Part of me says, if they weren’t in this country, they would not have this problem. Seems that some of the Arabs have forgotten about September 11 and what some of their fellow Muslims did to this country on that horrible day.
On the other hand, I believe it is totally wrong to single out a particular minority, and treat them like second class citizens. I believe that when the FBI cleared them, they should have been allowed on the plane.
It is just one of them very complicated issues. I will not act like my fellow conservatives and pull out the “Identity Politics” line or do the pile on here.
There is no easy answer here, and knee jerk reactions and stupidity will not solve anything at all.
Update: Of course, the Liberal media does not report the whole Story…. (H/T Cold Fury)
Later in the day, six of the nine detained passengers approached the customer service counter and asked to be rebooked to Orlando. At the time, the airline had not been notified by the authorities that the passengers were cleared to fly and would not rebook them until receiving said clearance. One passenger in the party became irate and made inappropriate comments. The local law enforcement officials came over and escorted the passengers away from the gate podium
Update: (H/T Reason)
Terrorists or No? How would one tell?
Seriously. If someone looking like this came onto a plane, making comments that sounded suspect. How would one know? Racial Profiling? Damn Straight. Some of us have not forgotten this:
Some of us, haven't forgotten who did this. It wasn't Americans
‘Nuff Said.

Speak for yourself, not others. Do not tell me what I am doing when you don’t know.
