LAPD Plan To Map Muslim Communities Angers Some Groups...

"LOS ANGELES -- A plan by the LAPD counterterrorism bureau to create a map detailing the Muslim communities in that city was reported Friday to be angering civil rights groups.

At least three major Muslim groups and the American Civil Liberties Union sent a letter Thursday to top city officials raising concerns about the plan, The New York Times reported."

Thank God there is finally someone who will do the right thing concerning terrorism! Maybe others will follow suit and we can start to feel a bit more safe!

But recognizing who terrorists are doesn't sit well with some!

"When the starting point for a police investigation is, 'Let's look at all Muslims,' we are going down a dangerous road," attorney Peter Bibring of the ACLU of Southern California told the newspaper in an interview. Some Los Angeles-based Muslim groups were critical of the approach."

"For the LAPD or any police department to assume that one group is more terrorist or violent than another because of their religion alone, that's a very scary phenomenon in our country," a Muslim advocate group representative said.

One representative brought up past incidents, comparing them to the recent developments regarding the map."

"It arouses suspicions in the minds of Muslims that, 'Here we come again,'" a Muslim Public Affairs Council of Southern California representative said. "They wanted to study us, to classify us, to map us."

The LA officials are doing the right thing. Everyone knows that Muslims are the terrorists and, when some were asked whether they would fight other Muslims if they needed to to protect their country, (the US) most said they wouldn't.

Folks, we need to encourage the people in LA! We can reach the LA PD at this e-mail address. I encourage all of you to e-mail them by clicking on this link and encourage them to keep up the good work and not let the Muslims and the ACLU stop them from doing what is right!

Let's help them do the right thing! Let's help them in protecting all of us!

Later...
