You won't answer my question because it helps point out the flaw in your argument doesn't it?
Islamic fundamentalist terrorists are most likely to be Asian.
Now, that is not the same as saying "All Asians are islamic fundametalist terrorists" but then, no one believes that.
Now, being a muslim, you're more likely to come into contact with terrorist suspects than say a middle class white person, through no fault of your own.
For instance, you may unwittingly share a mosque with a terrorist suspect, and socialise with them.
As such, it is understandable that the security forces would be interested in you and may even bring you in for questioning.
That is why it was stated that muslims are more likely to be affected by the anti-terrorism proceedures.
It is not the case that a muslim going about his business with no links at all to terroism, is going to be dragged off for interrogation just in case they're a terrorist.
