Thirty-one-year-old John Tyner, a 31-year-old recently unleashed the “Don’t tase me, Bro” moment of airport security. While about to receive a genital check from TSA security, Tyner agreed to a search of non-intimate areas but said, “If you touch my junk, I’ll have you arrested.” However, Muslim women will not have to face such worries. CNSNews.com has reported that Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) — which is frequently tied to domestic terror plots — has been guaranteed that TSA officials will only pat down Muslim women in the head and neck area.
CAIR said Muslims who object to full-body scans for religious reasons should know their rights if they are required to undergo a pat-down, including asking for the procedure to be done in a private place. In addition, CAIR offered a “special recommendation” for Muslim women who wear a hijab, telling them they should tell the TSA officer that they may be searched only around the head and neck.
“Before you are patted down, you should remind the TSA officer that they are only supposed to pat down the area in question, in this scenario, your head and neck. They SHOULD NOT subject you to a full-body or partial-body pat-down.”
Muslim women will likely opt for the not-very-invasive security pat-down, because most consider airports’ high-image body scans a violation of Islamic Shari’a law. CNS News adds, “In February, the Figh Council of North America, a group of Islamic scholars, issued a fatwa, or religious ruling, that full-body scanners violate Islamic law.”
So, Muslim women will not be subject to a full body scan or a pat-down on much of their elaborately concealed bodies. Feeling secure yet?
Add this to the growing proof that political correctness is not merely totalitarian but suicidal. The president made an exception to airline security protocol big enough to drive a jihad through — and applied it only to the adherents of Islam. Roman Catholic nuns can be groped en masse, but Obama rushed to defend the dignity of Muslim women.
Luckily, Muslim terrorists have no history of using female suicide bombers or hiding explosives in their underwear. Consider this just another reason why one-in-four Americans believe Obama is a Muslim.
Makes for a nice story, now show me the "guarantee."
putting aside for a moment debates about the best and appropriate forms of security screening for air travel, the idea that MUSLIMS of all people are to be exempt from intrusive security screening that the rest of us go through is so offensive on every level
so now all the rest of this are supposed to go through these types of screenings while any jihad terrorist can sail through .... yeah, this makes the TSA both pointless AND incompetent
“CNSNews.com has reported...”
I’m going to need a little verification there before getting excited.
CNSNews.com has reported that Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) — which is frequently tied to domestic terror plots — has been guaranteed that TSA officials will only pat down Muslim women in the head and neck area.
So our government is now abiding by Islamic Law.
We need to have riots in the streets about this. Apparently it is the only effective way to communicate with our government.
Threats of violence it now appears is the only effective way to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Flying is not a constitutional right. If it violates their religious sensibilities to be searched they should choose another mode of transportation.
Either all must submit to searches or none shall. We do not have special rights in this country.
I would have a serious problem reconciling THAT dichotomy. After some followup research, I found that this is on the CAIR wish list, but I did find that it was quite prolific on the Internet.
Would YOU want to touch muzzie “junk?”
I didn’t think so.
exactly, the report is that CAIR is instructing people there is no evidence yet the TSA is supporting CAIR’s proposal.
Freep Mail Call for you.
The only thing verified is that CAIR do suggest head and neck pat downs are the only pat down appropriate. But when? CAIR contend if secondary screening is the result of wearing the head scarf only that area should be patted down. They tell Muslim women to ask if the extra screening is because of the headscarf.
A government without constitutional restraints terrorizes its own citizens. We are being subjected to systematic terrorism by our government, and once they (the fascist pigs) intimidate and beat us down on one issue, they will move on to the next one. The Muslim terrorist are winning. They are beating us on our own home front, and here is where we need to fight back, even if it means fighting back against our own government.
OK...shaved my stash, got a big black MooMoo and a black head scarf. Now I beez muslim for TSA.
I have the solution....muslims may not be allowed to fly. Period. Solves everyone’s problems.
We don't fly(for obvious to you reasons).
I keep thinking of the fellows on Crossing the Goal and what they would say about this as a boundary or non boundary issue.
New saying should be “Don’t TSA me Bro”.
I will simply declare that I am a Muslim woman when I go through.
The scanners and searches ALSO violate Jewish and Christian belief (or “law”). Assert your 1st Amendment rights.
"Don't touch me junk!"
TSA = TRAINED SEXUAL ASSAULT
I see two constitutional issues - establishment of a religion and equal protection under the law.
I agree. If everyone would say they refuse screenings because they are Muslim, what would they do? Just not let anyone fly? How can they prove someone is or is not Muslim (not that it should matter)?
Something really bad is going to happen on obama's watch.
