It’s crazy that I almost don’t even recognize events like this as newsworthy anymore, simply because they are so common:
East Rutherford, N.J., Nov. 2 - Five Muslim football fans were detained and questioned during a game at Giants Stadium because they were congregating near an air duct on a night former President Bush was in the stadium, the FBI said Wednesday.
Some of the Muslims said they did not know they were in a sensitive area, and they complained that they were subjected to racial profiling while they were praying, as their faith requires five times a day.
And how do they even get away with saying shit like this?
“We do not profile anyone that comes into our arena, stadium or racetrack on any basis,” said George Zoffinger, president of the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority, which operates the stadium. “There was no profiling of our customers. I want to make that clear.”
I mean, come on… it’s way past surreal at this point. People can just say the opposite of what’s true and nobody bats an eyelash.
