This is an article from the Associated Press, it concerns the "flying imams" who were removed from a plane for suspicious behavior. These jackasses are now attempting to intimidate the US and its' people into silence when we see things that are not right. Now their attorney would like to keep the proceedings from the public, fortunately for all citizens in this country we still have some judges who know right from wrong, unlike judges in Germany who use the quran for sentencing muslims, apparently judges in Germany don't have a clue what country they are in, anyway I digress, here is the article.
A federal judge overseeing a lawsuit filed by six Muslim men who were removed from a US Airways flight last fall has declined to limit public access to the case.
Omar T. Mohammedi, a New York attorney for the six Muslim scholars, told The Associated Press on Wednesday that he sought limited media access because he felt some of the coverage of the case has been biased against his clients.
"When you think of the media, and the way they have been portraying this case, it has not been very helpful. It has been biased," Mohammedi said. "That has caused a lot of stress, a lot of stress on our clients, as well as made it difficult for us to handle this case ... in a manner that it should be handled."
[...]
In a letter dated Tuesday and addressed to Mohammedi, U.S. District Judge Ann Montgomery noted that Mohammedi had requested that the court remove members of the media from an electronic distribution list, bar members of the media from attending hearings, and hold proceedings in closed session.
"The Court declines to treat this case in the extraordinary manner that you request," the judge wrote. She added that the public and press have an interest in full access to judicial proceedings under the First Amendment.
"You have provided no legal authority supporting your request to limit public access to this case," Montgomery wrote. "While it is regrettable that anonymous individuals have threatened violence, the Court Security Officers will insure that the United States Courthouse here in Minneapolis is secure."
The way the media handled this is not very helpful? Omar, your clients were behaving suspicious, they were not just standing there minding their own business, they were attempting to incite fear for the express purpose of this lawsuit. The fact that CAIR is involved reeks of colusion, an attempt to relieve citizens of more rights in order to further islam and sharia in this country. I am quite sure this would work in Europe, lets hope these imams are sent packing with their frivolous lawsuit.
