Student Arrested After Pilot Uniform Found

[[ A university student from Egypt was ordered held without bond after prosecutors said they found a pilot's uniform, chart of Memphis International Airport and a DVD titled "How an Airline Captain Should Look and Act" in his apartment. ]]

You mean they actually arrested this man just because he had a pilot's uniform in his apartment? Just wait until the aclu, et al, get ahold of this one. They will not be happy... I would expect some outcries to be forthcoming:

It is possible that he was just going to be in a school play or something... I mean, who cares if he was in the country ILLEGALLY... or that he is awaiting trial for wire fraud and also for fraudulent use of a social security number...? Forget that the U.S. Attorney said that the circumstances were "scary"...

When are we going to stop profiling and picking on muslim males? It is not fair!! I bet this would not happen if Mahmoud were white!! This is just another example of how Bush hates people of color!!

What...? You think they won't say things like that?

Ha!
