Re: The Damasus Holiday Inn...

[Matthew Small]

The publicized fact that is that Middle-Easterners are known to come into the US via Canada.  This is a suspicious situation, plain and simple.  I didn't agree with the fact that he was tortured or deported.  I said it was suspicious and I believe the right thing to do is to question further. You don't have to give me one, the one taints the other two.  I don't like a lot of things going on with this kind of interrogation, but they were right on the money in detaining him for further questioning.  Bigoted?  How about realistic.  Lots of people have been "further questioned" for far less, including myself.  I'm a young white southern male.

  Wow, so you listed 3 facts:

  1) A middle-easterner living in Canada.

  So, is Canada just a bunch of white guys?

  2) Coming back from a Middle-Eastern country.

  So all Middle-Eastern countries are under suspicion now?

  3) Known contact with a terrorist.

  Wasn't he a suspected, not proven terrorist? Wasn't the contact from
  years ago? I can maybe give you this one, but the other two are simply
  wrong. Bigoted at worst.
