Fear is the modus operandi when it comes to Muslims

The New York Police Department is so afraid of another terrorist attack that it is investigating all Muslims simply for being Muslim.  These investigations are not triggered by an indication of terrorism or criminality. The reports are essentially used to populate databases showing where Muslims work, shop and pray. It has compiled reports on Muslims in Newark and Suffolk and Nassau counties.  

Does anyone remember someone saying, "We have nothing to fear but fear itself."?   How low we have sunk since Roosevelt said those words.
