I hate stereotypes in television...especially the stereotype in practically every law&order, cops&bad guys type shows that portrays 99% of the criminals as white, middle-class males.

The only reason I watch 24 (aside from it being an excellent show), is that it puts forth the effort to balance the good characters with the bad. There are plenty of good white men and women, and bad, good Latinos and bad, good African-Americans and bad, good Republican types and bad, good Democrat types and bad...and now good Muslims and bad.

Why should they suddenly destroy their balance to portray all Muslims as only good? Not to mention the FACT that there are plenty of terrorist, sleeper cells living in our country (just as the 19 Saudi Arabian Muslims were doing before they came out of their hiding on 9/11). The show is only making use of this fact.

CAIR...you can go to hell.
