OK. So, I wonder if the Justice Department will investigate that incident in Kansas City, MO where teenage boys those doused that other kid with gasoline and set him on fire. I mean, the guys that did it admitted it was because of the other kid's race...Oh wait..that's right...the kid that got set on fire was white, so it's OK. I momentarily forgot that it's OK to commit black on white violence under this administration, so of course there will be no investigation. Silly me.
Looking at these little backward ragheads just made me puke. Amazing who people can still be fooled into believing a 6th century savage who killed, abused, tortured and enslaved is a valid role model. Tells me pretty much I have to know about these savages.
monitor activities by citizens "should only do so when there is a basis to believe that something inappropriate is occurring or potentially could occur."...Who is responsible for the vast majority of terrorist violence in the world? Muslims! We have the right to watch them.
Funny how the loudest so-called patriots around here, so eager that we "return to the Constitution", are the first ones to abandon the Constitution they claim to love and respect so much when they disagree with it.
Spying on innocent people is strictly prohibited by our Constitution. Being attacked by fanatics is no reason to become fanatics ourselves. Freedom and standing by the principals of this nation are always risky. Cowards crash airplanes into buildings. But it takes great courage to stand by your principles in the face of a threat.
"First they came for the communists,and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me."
You are right---the people that are most eager to spy on people for no reason other than they are Muslim are usually the ones that complain the loudest when they are asked to pass through a body scanner at an airport.
The difference, in their minds, is that one of those things affects THEMSELVES, and the other does not.
Pastor Niemoller's comment always comes to me when I hear such things.
When Muslims extract the violence embedded into their religion, I will happily agree with you but until then I hold them in suspicion as I hold you in suspected ignorance.
Holder said that police seeking to monitor activities by citizens "should only do so when there is a basis to believe that something inappropriate is occurring or potentially could occur."
Holder is one the strangest AGs the US has ever had. I guess the fact that NEW YORK was the center of a radical Muslim attack in 2001 does not count as a basis to watch Muslim groups. Or, how about the failed attack in 1993 to take down the WTC by radical Muslims? There have been other potential attacks that have been stopped by police in NY since 9/11.
Holder seems to have the ability (or purpose, whatever it is) to be on the wrong side of just about everything. AG Holder, dropped his case against the Black Panthers who blatantly intimidated voters at the polls. Now, Holder may finally be kicked out over "Fast and Furious" - the program that sold guns to Mexican cartels, guns used to kill a US border agent. This guy has to be one of the worst AGs ever.
Unfortunately when regarding the 9/11 attacks, we seem to be watching the wrong people ... when we start watching people like George W. Bush and Richard Cheaney, for they are the true planners and executioners of the 9/11 plot, we will then be on a course to truly prevent traitorous actions by those that sleep in beds closest to our own in the future. As long as war is a motivation for making profits by those like Dick Cheaney, this country should fear those inside the beltway instead of those outside of it.
The DOJ is being pretty stupid. I agree with the NYPD 100%, after 911 the Muslims were out in the streets in American cities in thousands screaming God Is Great. There is plenty of footage on this, the media chose not to show it. It made the rounds regardless, due to the private sector, they video taped it as well. Now after a decade has passed and the terrorist organizations have been reduced to ashes the losers are claiming foul. Sore losers.
...except every traveler at an airport is overly scrutinized by the government and groped by TSA and treated like a terrorist...but, this is OK according to this administration...too bad these Muslims were checked out...they deserve it given what their extremists did to us...

In America? Links please.
The people being investigated aren't terrorists. So no terrorist is crying foul over the illegal, un-Constitutional spying.
This is wonderful. These Muslims should be grateful. The Japanese internment camps were for our and their protection. And we all know that any Muslim could potentially and inappropriately cause violence and or terror to protect the honor of Islam and the Koran. The Muslims should embrace the NYPD's surveillance to keep them safe from extremist in their mist.
Holder said that police seeking to monitor activities by citizens "should only do so when there is a basis to believe that something inappropriate is occurring or potentially could occur."
What do you think 9/11 was all about and what religous sect did all the terrorist belong?
This is why terrorist activities happen. Too many "politically correct" idiots in this world. This is not a safe place and under surveillance is not discrimination....it's prevention.
