I suggest you look up the meaning of the word "injustice"...

And I suggest you think of a better way to prevent terrorism.

I have already *said*, the better way is to get the Muslim world *on* our side and get them to *help* us instead of treating them *ALL* as potential terrorists!

If you can find anything, anywhere, to imply that I have said this, I hereby invite you to quote it in big letters.
When you can't, please, feel free to apologise for implying that I *would* ever suggest such thing.

I think you will find that not everyone who is a Muslim will be persecuted; I think you will find house arrest to be a little harder to apply for and put in place than an ASBO; and I think you are living in Cloud Cuckoo Land if you believe that "Innocent Till Proven Guilty" is an active concept of English Law.

If it is not, then it is *because* of people like you who seem to consider that rights are something that can be taken away at a whim whenever it is convenient for the powers that be.

How? If one suspects that Muslims intend to perpetrate a crime in the name of Islam, do you not think it sensible and logical to question Muslims? Or would you rather the police raided the local synagogue?

Again you completely miss the point. You appear to think that it is ok to question *ALL* Muslims based on the actions of a minority.
That *IS* discriminating against an *entire* group and is short sighted and foolish.
