Seriously, why doesn't anybody do this ? I think it would be a huge hit and very successful.

Make an airline where no Muslims would be allowed to fly on. I'd be willing to pay slightly extra for a ticket on that airline, and I bet that many other people would be willing to pay for that added security also. Muslims would still be able to fly, they can simply choose another airline to fly on. This is simple common sense. Take the UK for example, the percentage of these people who support terrorists is not small. No Muslims on that particular airline = an almost non-existant chance of any terrorist act happening on that airline. Sorry if any Liberals or Muslims feel offended, but that's simple facts for you. The lives of innocent infidel people should not be put at risk because of Liberal stupidity and suicidal political correctness. A significant portion of Muslims support terrorists and it's time to take measures against these psycho people who are waging war against the west. I do not want any Muslims on my airline flight.

ooh, yeah. I'd also pay a little extra to shop in stores that black people weren't allowed to enter, you know cuz they cause all the violent crime. Even better, you can actually tell who are the black people by looking at them.

PS. I'm the lord jesus christ. I think I'll get drunk and beat up some midgets.

PPS. This thread is destined for great things.

Becase non-muslims don't ever commit acts of terrorism?

Can't do it. The powers that be have made religious discrimination with respect to sales/services illegal (which I completely disagree with - a business owner should be able to refuse business to anyone he likes for whatever reason).

We'll just carry on with the current pressure cooker situation until a whole lot more folks wake up.

Uh. Hello! How would you work out who's Muslim and who isn't? Don't you think terrorists would target your airline and don't you think they'd say, "Me? No, not Muslim," when asked the question.

You should seriously be banned from this forum. I can't believe the mods allow you to post your vile, hate speech in here.

They should also have to wear identifying scarves on their arms when in public.

No hate speech there. If you don't want to have to get on a bus with a bunch of Britney Spears fans, why should you have to? Why shouldn't you be allowed to form your own bus company which bans Britney Spears fans from use of its services?

Freedom must include the ability to discriminate against anyone you want to for whatever reason you want to. Otherwise you don't have freedom - you have an empty, hollow approximation of freedom.

A possible way to get around the silly and suicidal religious discrimination laws would be to not deny any particular religion access to the airline, but have scantily clad stewardesses, serve only pork and alcohol for the meals and have the logo of the airline be a pig or something similiar.

That's fine but the US can no longer call itself the land of the free.

The US is not the land where Muslim terrorists can freely blow themselves up.

But the problem comes when everybody decides they want to bar Britney Spears fans to the point where the poor teenyboppers can no longer live at an acceptable level. This has happened with blacks in the US before, and it seems to me that there's more irrational hate of Muslims than there was of blacks.

I am for very small government and restricting people as little as possible, but it is the government's job to restrict our freedom — for instance, we aren't free to be pirates and just plunder other people's ****. The question isn't whether the freedom can be restricted, but whether it's really necessary to restrict it here.

Don't compare Islamic terrorists to non-violent blacks who were discriminated against in the USA in the past solely on their skin color.

Irrational you say ?

7/7 bombings 'justified' say a quarter of British Muslims

A third of those questioned said they would rather live under Sharia law in the UK than British law.

The survey also reveals concerns among Muslims about Britain's moral standards, with 40 per cent saying it is a country of bad moral behaviour.

That's a hell of a lot of people.

You support bombing civilians as well, PacHead, so I don't know why you find that shocking.

White people ? Why are you making this into a race thing ? Muslims are no race. White Muslims wouldn't be allowed on my airline either, if I decided. It is their ideology that is demented and perverted not their skin color.

You'll have a point when I advocate rounding up all Muslims and gassing them by the millions. Until then, you've got nothing.

terrorists don't have be muslim.

just because you discriminate against muslims doesn't mean you won't be attacked. Terrorists have been around longer than AQ (and it's copycats).

discriminating would play into the hands of those who seek to divide us. In place of one, you'd now have two, or more, because their words of hate would appear to be justified.
