Muslim woman arrested in Miami protest forced to remove hijab for booking photo
NBC 'News' ^ | 6/19/20 | Wilson Wong

A Muslim woman arrested during a Black Lives Matter protest in Miami was forced to remove her hijab for a booking photo, which a Muslim civil rights advocate called a “severe violation of religious freedoms.”

It also prompted supporters to start an online petition demanding justice for Alaa Massri, 18, one of seven people arrested June 10 during a peaceful protest against racial injustice. The arrests occurred after demonstrators spray-painted the Christopher Columbus and Juan Ponce de León statues in Bayfront Park, the Miami Police Department said in a statement.

Protestors covered the face and hands of Columbus in red paint and spray-painted “BLM” and “George Floyd” at the base. The demonstrations turned chaotic when officers arrested the vandalism suspects. The police department said in a news release that some demonstrators assaulted officers and damaged a police vehicle.

“City of Miami, we support peaceful protests but there will be zero tolerance for those who hide behind the peaceful protestors to incite riots, damage property, and hurt members of the public or our officers,” department officials said in a statement.

I don’t think they are allowed to participate in such things according to their cult. Deport if you can’t follow the law and civilize.

If she were truly religious she wouldn’t be going around breaking laws and rioting. She would be home reading the Koran, Quran or Qur’an.

I’ve been thinking along those lines as well.

I now identify as a woman of color. Always have in my heart.

I’m curious in a Muslim country where they treat women like 2nd class citizens, how do they identify someone for arrest?

That’s easy. They eliminated the need for due process for women. Efficient!

Nope. Once they havr your DNA through your Covid testing and vaccine, you won’t be able to make the black claim! Maybe they’ll haul you off for reeducation for having tried it...
