Welcome to 21st century police state, when ignorant frightened people dictate police responses. I hope both the hotel chain and the employee are sued straight into bankruptcy.
Yeah, if anything, ISIS is going to arrive in Cleveland in full traditional garb to throw off any hint they might be with ISIS.
Did Trump tweet self-congratulations yet?
Welcome to Trumpfuckistan.
Yes, I wonder why police are so gullible as to attack a man in traditional garb before asking him questions.
Then again, I wonder why so many Americans voted for Trump in the primaries. I see a correlation there somewhere.
Actually, he was disguising his ISIS membership: ISIS wears black. /snark
I couldn’t agree with you more. Someone needs to be made an object lesson of the consequences of when stupidity, fear and bigotry are allowed to run rampant.
A little preview of America under President Trump.
Screw the lawsuit. The hotel clerk’s father and sister should go to jail for making a false police report.
WTF!!?? I don’t believe I can convey how scary this is to me. So, the police show up and just handcuff him with not even ascertaining the situation? And, gee, that damned desk clerk – what a cracked up bitch she must be, she shits in her pants when she sees someone who isn’t wearing a god-damned cross around their neck? I want to say "sue the fuck out of these people – the PD and the people who phoned 911 – but it won’t teach anyone a lesson. Donald J. Trump, you own the current uptick in hate crimes against everyone who isn’t white male Xtian – you slimy, fucking Son-of-a-Bitch!
Edited for spelling
I. Am. So. Embarrassed. Thanks, Trump.
Come on, at least the Police didn’t kill him !
I hope he sues them all - the hotel, the hotel employee, the police department - into non-existence.
Well, that’s because he’s not black! [not snark – right, (the few bad apples in the) Police?]
Trump-style “selective profiling” in action.
Clerk: “He was pledging his loyalty to ISIS.”
Rational person: “Oh, you speak fluent Arabic?”
Clerk: “No.”
Rational person: “Then how do you know he was pledging his loyalty to ISIS?”
Clerk: “He’s an Ay-rab, ain’t he?”
In response the United Arab Emirates has issued a travel advisory to its citizens:
UAE warns against wearing national dress abroad
It won’t do them a bit of good. The fools will just assume they’re trying to conceal something & proceed as above.
I imagine he was going to the Cleveland Clinic for medical care. A lot of foreigners go there for their world-class treatment.
