Two people believed to be Muslims praying on an MBTA platform triggered a rapid response from heavily armed transit cops yesterday morning and immediately sparked a debate about when “see something, say something” vigilance can infringe on religious freedoms.
“It’s really up to the person who makes the initial report to make a report based on actual evidence and an actual suspicion and not on prejudice and stereotyping,” said Ibrahim Hooper, spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a Washington D.C.-based Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization.

“Our Massachusetts office will be reaching out to the transit police to see what happened and to clarify to make sure that all proper procedures were followed,” Hooper said.
“Hopefully there was some attempt to ensure that this kind of incident isn’t purely the result of prejudice and stereotyping … Praying should not be regarded as suspicious.”
They don’t belong here.
Whenever a muslem drops down and starts praying, EVERYBODY should be concerned.
Stick it Hooper..........
I'm betting on it.
The Council of Angry Islamic Radicals puts their 2 cents in.
One possible goal was to increase the threshold
prior to the next multipronged, long planned, attack.
“I dropped my contact lens. Where is my contact lens? OH Lord, where is my contact lens? It has to be down here. “
ALL moozlums anywhere in the USA deserve to be reported ALL the time. The kuran tells them to make nonmoozlums submit or murder them. That is what is says...no exceptions.
In a few words !
I’ve seen it a thousand times. You don’t even notice it. What you do notice is the other Muslims looking at them like they are nuts.
Islam, the religion of Jihad and Conquest.
Ask me if I give a sh*t.
“They don’t belong here”
They don’t belong anywhere.
Yes, it was a provocation
Maybe we need more rosaries prayed openly at airports, sports stadiums and other public spaces - just sayin’
Somehow I don’t think the founding fathers included iSlime in their freedom of religion ideology. I think the freedom of religion clause was to ensure that the Church of England would not be the only Christian organization in America. But they were all to be Christian based. Not death cults like satanism or iSlime.
Lemme guess....they had mysterious bulges under their clothing and were shouting “Allahu Akhbar” as they prayed.
This may be Clock Boy 2.0
"I pray that allah will accept me"....Mateen

If they were praying at another time of the day - why were they praying ‘out of’ Islamic orders?
