I agree. Radical Islam is a danger and concern. We should put all necessary resources to it. Muslims, however, are not.

Do you have any idea what you expect to see in these hearings? Seriously: we already have CIA, FBI, terrorist speciality groups, special ops groups, etc. that have spent 10+ years investigating and profiling radicals in the US. We've caught 80, 40 turned in by their Muslim relatives (and I am trying to find where I read that yesterday to reference it properly ... )

I'm very serious here: what in the world do you think could possibly be the unique or useful information that could come forth from this public C-Span 2 Islamophobiafest? Especially considering who King has invited to speak?

Here's what we will learn:
1. Many people fear Muslims and terrorists.
2. Some American's child became radicalized. It was awful.
3. The American Muslim community should help us find radicalized terrorists in this country.
4. King will markedly tone down his anti-Muslim rhetoric for the TV cameras.
