I don't get why Muslims are getting all these special favors while we randomly inspect them at airports. Hell, we can't even wear shoes at security anymore because of them!
You know, they don't ALL hijack planes or blow themselves up on buses.

No, but I bet about 90% purposely and inadvertently donate money to a "charity" that funds them.
Thanks for making your prejudice clear. :thumbsup: At least you're open about it.
Why pretend?
I bet 90% of Americans purposely and inadvertently love having a group to hate on.
Muslim hate is just like the black hate and Jap hate that rolled through America. Americans
love having someone to hate and profile.
<--- Muslim, does not donate to "charity" that funds terrorism.
I don't see the problem here. The Quran says they have to cover up in public, specifically around men. They explained their point to Harvard, who set aside 6 women only hours so that they could wear clothes better fit to working out (try working out in a nun's getup, or some robes, probably not too easy). Everyone crying over 6 out of 70 hours that the gym is open is a ninny.
The Qur'an does not state anywhere that they have to wear the burkhas or the hijabs. All it states is that the apparel has to be modest and cover the bosom. The long flowing robes is nothing more than culture, it is not religion.
and you forgot the Native Americans and the Chinese who built many railroads, but the 90% number you pulled out is egregious. America is a great melting pot of ideas, religions and beliefs; granted it isn't perfect.
However, do the Southern Baptist strap bombs on their chests and vehicles and go to Catholic supermarkets? Does the Mormon church have thugs that will haul anyone away that drinks a coke and beer?
The 90% of Americans don't hate any group, they just have a great disdain for repressive backward societies that are unwilling to enter the 21st century.
I was mocking JS80's "statistic." Nice job missing the sarcasm there.
By the way, don't try and preach my religion to me. The verse I'm certain you're quoting about "covering the bosom" says THE HEADSCARF (Khimar, exact Arabic word used, also means veil) should cover the bosom. Burkas, however, are entirely cultural. "Modest" apparel is largely interpreted as anything that isn't form fitting, a jilbab (the "robe") is the cultural garment some choose to wear. Business casual works too...
Catholics didn't invade a Southern Baptist country and forcibly evict an entire population. They aren't still today carving up their land and settling there. They don't cut the power and gas and cause a humanitarian crisis for fun.
I don't agree with the thugs that haul people away for drinking. Just like I don't agree with being fined for selling drinks on Sunday. Then again, we're talking about AMERICA, nice job turning this into broad Muslim bashing.
