Document Summary
A fully covered muslim woman arrives in the us airport, where the airport police suspect her of being a terrorist. She is taken to police custody and being questioned about her appearance and identity. She tries to explain her situation but the police stop her and forces her to answer whatever they ask to her. The police forcefully make her guilty and refrain to listen to her explanations. After paying all the fines and charges, she finally gets rid of the harassment and opens up a forum for victim like this. In the forum she explains what she had gone through despite being innocent. She protests against such kind of actions and hatred towards muslim community. The community accuses her of uttering hate speeches and bans her forum. It could be just an explanation involving coarse language: the speaker of hate speech might not have any intention of doing harm to the society.
