Melanie Morgan: Muslims Guilty Until Proven Innocent

Hate-mongering Melanie Morgan, who looks as though she hasn't laughed in at least a year, was back to spread some more of her shrill, mean spirit on Hannity & Colmes last night (12/5/06) in at least the third H&C discussion about the six imams thrown off a US Airways plane a few days before Thanksgiving. Rather than offer any kind of understanding or sympathy for the plight of the imams, who were never charged with any crime, Morgan accused them of insensitivity toward their fellow passengers by acting too publicly Muslim. She said, “Let us not exonerate these six Imams until all of the facts are in.”

Last I checked, Morgan is a talk show host with a checkered past who has no professional training or experience in security or aviation. Nevertheless, nobody questioned her authority when she announced “We need to use proven psychological, racial and ethnic profiling” on airplanes. She grandiosely offered, “I think that if I were a young Muslim male, who had no evil intentions in my heart, I would be grateful for any additional profiling that would take place because that would mean my family and myself would be flying safely.”
