In March, the House adopted a provision that would shield from civil liability any citizens who report in good faith any possible terrorist activities they might see. This was prompted by the multi-million dollar civil suit brought by the “flying Imams” against the passengers who reported their activities to authorities. Strangely, this provision was blocked by Senate Democrats last week. :confused::confused::confused:
Meanwhile, legislation to shield reporters from being forced by prosecutors to reveal their sources was approved yesterday by the House Judiciary Committee.
So, if you’re waiting at the airport and happen to see a small group of Middle Eastern men acting extremely nervous, sweating profusely, repeatedly reaching into their pockets while rocking back and forth fervently praying to Allah in a foreign language, you’d better just keep your mouth shut. Unless of course you happen to be a reporter. :mad::mad::mad:
