Sent out today to CAIR’s email list—the next act in the grievance opera of the six non-flying imams:

IMAMS TO ANNOUNCE FILING OF BIAS SUIT AGAINST US AIRWAYS

Muslim leaders say removal from MN flight based on race, religion

(WASHINGTON, D.C., 3/12/07) - On Tuesday, March 13, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) will hold a news conference in Washington, D.C., to announce the filing of a discrimination lawsuit against US Airways by six imams, or Islamic religious leaders, removed from a flight in Minneapolis last November.

The filing of the lawsuit will be announced by the imams’ attorney. Three of the imams are scheduled to attend CAIR’s news conference and read a prepared statement.

WHAT: Imams to Announce Filing of Bias Suit Against US Airways
WHEN: 10:30 a.m., Tuesday, March 13, 2007

 Frank says:

There were 45 men in the jail cell, the toilet and shower had never been cleaned, the temperature was 110 degrees so you couldn't sleep night or day, there were roaches in the oatmeal, sadistic guards, and everything that was nice. -- Zappa 1969 interview. This had happened during the days of Studio Z in Cucamonga (1963). Frank was released on bail (his father took out a bank loan to pay for it). Frank had been busted for "conspiracy to commit pornography," after making a silly recording of suggestive sexual sounds (giggling edited out) for someone who had asked him to provide a "special" tape recording for a stag night. That someone turned out to be Detective Willis of the San Bernadino Vice Squad. Their conversation was recorded by a hidden microphone and this was used as evidence at Zappa's trial.
