If anyone regardless of their religion or ethnicity did this, they would also be arrested.
Riverside, California-AP -- The federal government has decided to press charges against an
anti-war protester who allegedly drove his car through a barrier at March Air Force Base,
California, last month.
Eid Elwir-elwir was arrested yesterday and is being charged with damaging government property.
Authorities say the 26-year-old Venezuelan-born U-S citizen drove his car through a razor-wire
barricade at the base and then crashed into a chain-link fence at the entrance.
The F-B-I says he shouted anti-American slogans at the Marine sentries who arrested him, and
claimed he was being oppressed because he's a Muslim.

Well of course he's being oppressed. Why just yesterday I crashed my car through the gate of an army base near me, started peeling out next to the parade ground, and the guards just smiled and waved. Today I think I'm gonna go to the nearest airforce base and see if I can outaccelerate a jet taking off.

I was kidding They don't let you run wild in army bases regardless of whether it was an accident or not. They have to detain you to find out what your intent was.

I think it's a testiment to how well trained the US marines are, because they are even able to tell someone's religion by snagging a quick glance at them in a moving vehicle. Thus, they can decide whether the the party in question needs some oppressin'.
