Standing up to the flying imams

Power Line has launched a campaign for standing up to the flying imams with a special logo (via Michelle Malkin). And the GOP has introduced special legislature to protect witnesses from being prosecuted:
House Republicans are pushing legislation to protect airline passengers from lawsuits for reporting suspicious behavior that might be linked to a terrorist attack.

Rep. Steve Pearce, New Mexico Republican, introduced the Protecting Americans Fighting Terrorism Act of 2007 on Thursday, a week after a lawsuit was filed by a group of Muslim imams who were taken off a US Airways flight in November.

It is "unconscionable" that those who report suspicious activity could be "terrorized in our own court system in our own country," Mr. Pearce said on the House floor yesterday afternoon.
People should not be persecuted for doing a service to the public by reporting for the sake of safety.

Others on the subject include 911 Families for a Secure America, The Mighty Righty, Sweet Spirits of Ammonia, The Cassandra Page, Bill's Bites, Sierra Faith, Hot Air, House of Chin, TMQ2.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
