... The agent in question is quoted in two sworn statements, one by Wright and the other by retired agent Barry Carmody, as refusing to record the conversation because "a Muslim does not record another Muslim" ...
Will a Muslim investigate another Muslim? Or arrest another Muslim? If not, then Muslims belong in law enforcement like the Amish belong in the US Marines. We live in a secular society; either adapt yourselves, or excuse yourselves.

As a person with many Amish relatives and a father who left the Amish before he married (to join a strict group of Mennonites!) I find your comment very funny!

The only problem is, we don't have any reason to infiltrate the Amish. :-\

Despite being committed pacifists, there are a number of Amish who have served in the military as unarmed medics, and have been decorated for valor for saving lives while under fire

A Muslim MIGHT be of use in tracking down non-Muslim criminals, but I agree that having considerations that loyalty to a criminal fellow muslim might supercede his Oath to uphold the law, renders that Muslim unfit to carry a badge

This makes no sense. Muslims do record and investigate other muslims. In Muslim countries they do have law enforcement, they do torture and punish and everything else. Hell, they have religious laws. What the hell was wrong with this guy?
