That the people who may be sued by CAIR for sincerely attempting to protect their airplane and their lives should be provided with legal defense goes without saying. But I think it should go further.
We need to start a legal fund to have a class-action countersuit against the “flying Imams,” for maliciously terrorizing the passengers and delaying the flight. And for this clear attempt to intimidate us all into remaining passive in the face of equally clear threats. We should make this as painful for CAIR as possible, to discourage both such future behavior on what appear to be their operatives, and from filing frivolous lawsuits.
