Like maybe the symbol of Islam prominently displayed on their coats and shirts?
If anyone understands the historical implications of this thread, please don't reveal it. Let's see what good, decent, patriotic Americans have to say.

You would really need to be quite ignorant not to see the historical significance.

I don't see what would be the point of these markings.

Good idea but I am afraid you gave it away.

Nevertheless I bet I could name precisely the posters here that would be in favor of such a measure.

But then Rita or Casey would be giving me a time out for being too candid.

No, but the terrorists should have a big T branded on their foreheads.

Got any historical significance on that?

What if you waited in line to board an airplane and saw some people wearing Islam ID. Wouldn't you feel safer if they were denied tickets, or at least, strip searched before they were allowed to board?

I think you need to learn some manners. Then I think you need to get off this website for a time and study up on American civics and democracy. And I mean really get into it.

No class.

Isn't this America's rule of thumb:
Not all muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are muslims.

scarlet letters were wrong when they were in vogue as a punishment, and they would be wrong now.
