Just round them up and brand 'em.

No, you send the wrong message supporting illegals and terrorists.
No, Arabs are not being singled out, only people who are breaking the law from countries that have people attacking us.
I missed that WP article, but how nice of the WP, the TV station, Local 4, and whoever leaked this news to give them such advanced warning...
Of course, there's always the possibility that we're tired of rounding these people up and are hoping they'll all flee the country before Monday...
How many of the hijackers were not Arabs? How many were female? Sorry, jerk, but women from Mexico here to clean houses do not fit the profile. Given the limited availablity of law enforcement personnel, the last decade of porous borders and the fact that these illegals are already breaking the law by refusing deportation and going on the lam after they've had their day in court, there is no more logical place to start.
And if I were a loyal American of Arab descent, I'd feel this way even more strongly! The quicker they get these illegals out of the country, the less the danger of backlash to those of us who share the same ethnic origin. The last thing I'm going to do is blame those who are suspicios of Arabs now and weren't before. The first ones I'll blame is those who hid in our community and besmirched our name!
If Imad is agin' it, I'm fer it!
This initiative coming to light in Michigan brings to mind an issue I've been meaning to post. One of the issues the FBI is wrestling with is: How to share information with local law enforcement agencies? This becomes a real issue when one of those agencies is a Dearborn, MI, where around 1/3 of the population is Arab Muslim. How many sleepers does the enemy have planted in THAT P.D., pulling intelligence data on who needs to really hide. Portland comes to mind as another P.D. that I would initially distrust, given the PC nonsense you hear from the mayor.
That's a palestinian pig in the territories. She's (thankfully) not here in the U.S.
