I just had a memory flash. I seem to remember overhearing the end of a news report saying something like all American Muslims had to register on some sort of roll or something?

Was I dreaming or is this actual? I've heard nothing since. If true, anyone know the details? If not I'll just ... slip out quietly...

I heard this to. Sounds racist to me. They need to just find the illegal ones and leave the rst alone.

Can't find anything about it right away on CNN or BBC... Let's just hope that it's not true, then.

edit: found one, but it seems johnny has already posted it in the mean time.

Thanks johnny. Wow, I wonder if they got issued with armbands bearing a crescent when they registered?

It's interesting that it hardly featured in the news here. Massive social implications...

Perhaps they should be made to wear yellow stars or something.

I'm actually gaping at the article with my mouth wide open, still hoping it's merely a fake Onion article... Good God. They've finally lost it.
