I have heard that 6 imams were kicked out from a US Airways flight for no reason. When they refused, the crew called police. They were questioned by police for several hours.
I am a Muslim, and am considering getting higher degrees in the US. Is it possible to live in the US normally?

When people of any faith do things to provoke, bad things happen. The Imams were removed for making suspicious remarks and behaving in a manner that provoked concern. The greater good was more important. They were removed.

These are fairly isolated incidents. The owner of the company I work for is a devote Muslim and he has little trouble drumming up business. Not to mention the college I go to is probably at least fifty percent Middle Eastern with most of that number being Muslim. Will you run into occasional bigots? Of course but for the most part I think you'll be pretty happy.

Muslims are cornered everywhere.
It's a new wave Crusade against Islam.
I'm not religious but I sympathise with every Muslim that is discriminated, abused and accused unfairly.
Shame on the Media and the Governments that promote it.
Western countries aren't as civilised as I thought they were.
Here in Australia people also distrust Muslims. Having a clown as Prime Minister doesn't help much to stop racism in this country.

They weren't just booted off for no reason. You of course can be here normally. They deserved every part of what they deserved, read up, be informed. That's what you need to do. I also have heard that all imams are terrorists, is that true then just becuase I heard that?
BE INFORMED, and a lot of questions would not be needed to be asked.

Islam is the fastest growing religion in the states..there are millions of Muslims in America...and thousands of foreign
Muslim students..Lets hope the Us airways incident is an isolated
occurrence.. I hope you continue to consider coming to the states
because we have much to learn from one another!!

Muslims should have asked themselves, why ordinay
people are afraid of the Muslims, not only in America.
In Spain a large group of people refused to board a
plane, because a fellow passenger was looking like
a muslim. It is pity, but a reality in this world to day.

My country as a whole has suffered more from followers of the Muslim faith than any other religion in the world. As far as I'm concerned why don't you just stay out and take all your Muslim brothers and sisters with you. I don't like you here and want you all to leave!

"No reason?" They stirred up a lot of trouble and there was SIGNIFICANT reason for law enforcement to act.
If you're siding with Muslims right or wrong and are not interested in the security of this country, then I would not recommend you coming here to "get higher degrees" or for any other reason.

There have been many cases of muslims trying to destroy plane loads of whites. Thats why we dont trust you. When you start to act normally we may treat you as equals. Its cause and effect.
