A Muslim woman was pulled out of line and subjected to a pat-down search at an Ohio airport because she was wearing traditional dress, an advocacy group said.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations said Wednesday it has complained to the federal Transportation Security Administration and the Department of Homeland Security, the Dayton Daily News reported.

What garbage. I see old white grannies pulled out of lines getting search. Screw Islam.
Screw you, CAIR! You can hide a machine gun under those robes.
ABSOLUTELY, I’ve seen them frisk Amish Women with prayer shawls and they didn’t complain. It was their religion of Peace that got all of this started, they need to apologize.
If she was covered from head to foot I can see why they would want to search her. Its very suspicious.
I’m an old white granny and got searched several years ago.
No big deal.
If they don’t like it, let them go back to Muzzie Land.
In fact, let them go back whether they like it or not.

Message to US Muslims, if you do not like our rules you can leave. We will survive without you.
I get SEARCHED head to toe EVERY time I fly because of YOU. I have a replaced knee and it really whines in the metal detector.
But I do not mind because I WANT people, especially PEOPLE of your persuasion who have been know to strap BOMBS on little CHILDREN as well as women because you breed major cowards who strike from behind....to ALWAYS be SEARCHED. Period.
Obama will probably say the TSA officer ‘acted stupidly’...
Hey CAIR STFU and go back to wherever you came from. I’m sure life there is so much better than here!
Let another woman do the pat down or are they
screaming about that too.
Who protested, the Pat ers, or Pat ees?
I didn’t read the article and 0bama didn’t cover it during the Health Care Crisis info mercial.
I'm sure he'll say TSA acted "stupidly"
She was searched by female officers.
Not unusual these days, regardless of who you are or how you’re dressed.
Haven’t they heard of female suicide bombers in the news?
Mayhap they can go Greyhound. ;-)
We’ve spent some winter vacations in a very nice part of the eastern seaboard and have seen muslim women enjoying the hot tub...wearing head to toe garb.
Just the image of ‘woman-in-a-bag’ is off-putting enough....the point being, you could hide most anything under those robes.
She’s lucky. In Saudi Arabia, she would have been stoned and then beheaded!
Screw Muslims! This is America. If you don’t like the way we do things, leave!
That's a good start. Now go and do 1000 more
Double post...
Or did you enjoy it so much you went through again? ;-)
*ducks under desk*
Aren’t we all muslim females? Do they have proof that we aren’t.
"deep probes" all around for the advocacy group.
Just having gone thru this last month, my wife, who has artifical hip, was patted down and I was informed that it must be done by a women. I have a metal knee and I got patted down and it had to be a male who did it.
Search em all. They are a threat.
And in a related story 3 female TSA agents have filed for stress related leave based on what they saw when patting down a Muslim woman wearing traditional dress.
One of the agents was found sitting in a corner with her arms clasped around her knees completely unresponsive and repeatedly mumbling, "The horror...the horror."
More anti-American whining from CAIR. “Waaah! Waaah! We Muslims are all victims!” Please. Spare me. Muslims are the most likely to be terrorists, but the least likely to be searched at airports. Thank political correctness for that.
The last time I flew, I, the mixed white-Hispanic girl in business attire, was singled out for a search. Meanwhile, the Arab Muslim couple three places ahead of me - man with beard and turban, woman with headscarf - were waved on through.
The woman probably had a choice of being patted down or going to a private room with a woman HSA worker and stripping. She chose to be patted down.
So if we all start wearing moolim burpas, we won’t have to endure any pat-downs. CAIR needs to be disbanded.
How dare you pat her down! She can only be raped, stoned, beat, slapped and degraded!
Actually my old lady friend(who was also searched) and I said afterwards that it had been a looooong time.
No ducking under desk needed here. :-)
By the way,it was at Heathrow before 9/11——they’ve been tough for quite a while.
