The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) today issued an updated travel advisory for those concerned about new airport security measures involving full-body scanners and more invasive pat-downs.
Earlier this year, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) began phasing in full-body Advanced Imaging Technology (AIT) scanners in airports as a primary screening method. In February, CAIR supported a statement by a prominent group of Muslim scholars that the full-body scanners violate religious and privacy rights.
If you wear the Islamic head scarf and you are selected for secondary screening, ask the TSA officer if the reason you are being selected for secondary is because of your head scarf. If the officer confirms you were referred to secondary because of your head scarf, before you are patted down, you should remind the TSA officer, who should be of the same gender, 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. You can always request to pat down your own scarf, including head and neck area, and have the officer perform a residue swab of your hands.
If you experience any disturbing incidents, particularly if you feel you have been subjected to religious or racial profiling, harassment or unfair treatment, immediately file a complaint with the TSA and report the incident to your local CAIR chapter.

CAIR's posture is as if their crappy religion isn't the cause of all this strife. It's amazing they're trying to protect against religious profiling. We absolutely should be profiling for muslims! Full body scans should be mandatory only for those of an Islamic background or those from the middle east. We know what kind of people blow up airplanes, this is a profile that is heavily supported by facts and data. If the American people actually had a voice, Muslims would not even be here.
This is newswire direct from CAIR pronounced “Ka-yur” like “Keffur”.
I saw a whole tribe of islamists in Hobby Airport get passed around the TSA screen through the pilot express lane with no checks, while my wife and an old lady with cane were getting the down-the pants inspections.
Forget “opt out day”. How about “everybody dress like a Muslim and demand the right to pat themselves down day.”

Why do they think they are so efffing special?
This is a freaking JOKE, isn't it?
What? You don’t think Muslims should be allowed to search themselves?
Now wait - if it’s racial profiling to search someone with a headscarf, isn’t it racial profiling to NOT search someone with a headscarf?
Self pat downs work!!!
Best idea yet!
NO! Kufir are subhumans in the eyes of islamic supremacists.
“Why do they think they are so efffing special?”
Oh, I don’t know, maybe because for years they have been getting away with it?
Can people not see that al this hyped “uproar” about the TSA is coming from CAIR?
It’s just one more of their smokescreens, hiding their multifaceted actions to weaken U.S. ability to implement improved anti-terror technologies coming out of the U.S. and Israel?

Why doesn’t CAIR just publish a list of airliners that their Yemeni counterparts will be attempting to blow up over the holiday?
