‘Simply Un-American’: CAIR-Led Lawsuit Claims Cop Was Fired After Converting to Islam

A former police officer in Norton, Ohio, is alleging discrimination and claiming that he was fired from his job soon after converting to Islam. Nicholas A. Matheny has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the City of Norton, numerous staffers with the local police department and City Administrator Richard Ryland.

The lawsuit claims that officials violated federal and state discrimination law, citing retaliation, a hostile work environment and conspiracy, according to a press release published by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). Matheny’s representation is hinging its argument upon the fact that it is illegal, concerning both state and federal laws, to make employment decisions based on religion or as retribution for an employee’s complaints about alleged discrimination.

Good. No islam/muslim should ever be in a police/security/sensitive position in THIS COUNTRY.

Contrary to what you may have been told, they ARE our enemy. Eventually, they will try to kill us.
