Back in 2014 the New York Police Department dropped a program that monitored potential suspects of Islamic extremism.
Created in 2005, the program was pretty cut and dry: plain clothed detectives were sent out to mosques and gathering places for Muslims to see if anyone was pushing extremist rhetoric on the community. While it might seem a bit intrusive, this happened in a city of 8.5 million people with as many as 800,000 Muslim residents in the greater metro area, many of whom are foreign born nationals. It's also the same geographic location as the biggest Islamic terror attack in United States history.
Known as the Demographics Unit, the program seemed to make sense. After all, New York City has a history with Islamic extremism that resulted in thousands of people dying. But when liberal activists and special interest groups caught wind of it's existence, it had to go.
In 2014 the New York Times reported that the Demographics Unit would no longer exist. They didn't make this decision on their own. They were pressed into the move by a feminist Sharia Law advocate & liberal activist named Linda Sarour. You might remember Linda from the Women's March in DC earlier this year. She's part of the Arab American Association of New York. She also called for a Jihad against President Trump [her words, not mine]. And she really dislikes Israel [the only Jewish state on Earth].
