Sure looks like profiling to me

#1 Post by Bob78164 » Sat Feb 25, 2017 9:27 am

A native-born United States citizen returning from Jamaica was detained for two hours by ICE, subjected to questions about his religion and the origin of his name. He was born in Philadelphia. His religion is Muslim. His name sounds Arabic. It's Muhammad Ali, Jr., and yes, he's the son of the late world champion. --Bob
