"Did you see last week’s story about the terrorist with nine guns, thousands of rounds of ammunition, arrested just before he could attack a house of worship? Oh, that's right, you didn't. Because the attacker was a white guy, and his target was a mosque. Nothing to see here, apparently.
Forty-year old Mark Feigin was arrested for making terrorist threats against the Islamic Center of SoCal, but once he posted bail - he was released. Apparently you can use secret evidence to detain a Muslim indefinitely, but actual evidence doesn’t count if the suspect is not a Muslim."
