U.S. border officials are using a questionnaire about religion to harass Muslim travelers, a Muslim advocacy group charges. The Immigration and Customs Enforcement questionnaire was released by the Department of Homeland Security in response to a lawsuit by the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the Intercept reports.
The questions that were revealed the document was heavily redacted include Have you participated in any formal religious training or schooling? What house of worship do you attend? and Do you have any relatives or friends who have been martyred fighting in the defense of your beliefs? Derek Benner, deputy executive associate director of homeland security investigations for ICE, said the documents purpose is to provide guidance to special agents who are called upon to conduct a certain type of investigatory review of persons.
CAIRs lawsuit argues that customs and border officials have unconstitutionally engaged in religious profiling, and that the questions contribute to a larger harassment of Muslim travelers.

Next thing you’ll hear they will demand immunity for such people from charges relating to statutory rape and similar offences (after all, that concerns both religion and sexual orientation).
This matter can be easily laid to rest: Don’t allow Moslems into the USA, and send all of the ones who are here back to their shithole countries!
But they are cool with making sure visitors to their countries are checked for bibles...
Suggested questions:
Are you now or ever been part of radical movement, religious, political or otherwise?
Does your country of origin promote radicalism?
Does your country promote human rights?
Et cetera.
If they’re not citizens, how is it unconstitutional?
I suspect this filing was coordinated with the White House.
As a front group for the invasion of Islam, CAIR is doing a good job.
“This matter can be easily laid to rest: Dont allow Moslems into the USA, and send all of the ones who are here back to their shithole countries!”
You stole my answer.
Voice: “Next, please.”
Question: “Are you a Muslim?”
Answer: “Yes.”
Sound: BANG!
Voice: “Next, please.”
The questionnaire is worthless. Jihadis will lie anyway.
CAIR is a front group for the Muslim Brotherhood.
Their intent is for America, and the world for that matter, to become Islamic.
They are going to use our laws against us, ala Alinsky.
Islam is incompatible with Western Civilization.
Unless we acknowledge that fact and respond accordingly, we’re doomed.
Nice fantasy, but we won’t even deport criminals.
Well said.
I’m happy for you to repeat it!
I like it so much, that I’m going to repeat it:
This matter can be easily laid to rest: Dont allow Moslems into the USA, and send all of the ones who are here back to their shithole countries!
