#2 Of course in any lawsuit filed by the 'victims', their shyster attorneys would profile like hell to get a jury full of moose limb sympathisers.

#3 People that legitimately report suspected terrorist activity should enjoy the same immunity as good Samaritans who render CPR or first aid to an injured person. The "Flying Imams" case needs to set a precedent regarding what does and does not constitute noticable and potentially terrorist activity.

It is not at all ironic—after so many atrocities being immediately preceded by cries of "Allahu Ackbar"—that Islamic religious behavior in public should rightfully generate suspicion. In light of an almost unanimous refusal to diligently identify and expel the radicals amongst them, Muslims have deservingly forfeited all benefit of the doubt over how their conspicuous public worship has become valid grounds for suspicion.

Through both their deafening silence and radicalism, Muslims of all stripes have successfully eroded whatever respect their faith might once have enjoyed. The West is neither obliged—nor is it even able—to rehabilitate Islam's thoroughly tainted reputation. Politicians who enact legal protections in order to immunize Muslims from justifiable public suspicion betray all involved. No one benefits when Islam—and anyone who acts upon its tenets—is sheltered from the well-deserved consequences of its violently intolerant doctrine. Terrorism is a direct result of properly interpreting and worshiping the Koran. Pretending otherwise is a disservice to Muslim and non-Muslim alike.

Whatever noble intentions that Multiculturalism might once have possessed will wither in its tight embrace of Islam. The heinous nature of Muslim atrocities overwhelms even the most auspicious goals of fostering Multicultural diversity. Any attempt to soft-pedal terrorism will inevitably accrue the implaccable wrath of its far more numerous victims. Using the pretense of mercy or tolerance to shield a violent minority from the consequences of their crimes is to be an accomplice before and after the fact. Politicians who engage in this outrageous moral tresspass shackle themselves to the perpetrators they wittingly or unwittingly abet.

#4 If I thought some bozo's were going to blow up my plane, I don't think potential lawsuits will be a strong concern for me.
