Re: Muslims should expect to be stopped....

Of course the Government has clearly done its research and seen how successful the SUS laws of the late 70s were when we saw an extraordinarily disproportionate number of black people being stopped and searched. That gave Brixton a lovely warm feeling - well whilst it burned at least.

You cannot stigmatise a majority for the actions of a minority. Besides I thought modern policing was supposed to be intelligence led. Random stop and search of one section of the community doesn't sound very intelligent to me.

I suggest that the Muslims get on with it and sort themselves out, they aren't doing themselves any favours by letting extremists get away with acts of terrors.

This is not about airport security, this is about being stopped and searched going about your daily life. Totally different issue.

And the Islamic Council of GB and other major islamic bodies are consistent in their condemnation of terrorism. Funny how that fails to grab the headlines though.
