Dearborn Attorney Majed Moughni Set to Testify against Ali Charaf Damache
I’m obviously no fan of Islam, but I am a fan of Muslims who condemn terrorism and who believe in the First Amendment rights of people who object to Muhammad’s teachings. After Dearborn Police arrested us on obviously trumped-up charges, a Dearborn lawyer (and a Muslim) named Majed Moughni held a small rally condemning the actions of police.

Moughni said he was worried for the safety of himself, his wife and four children.
“It was pretty frightening,” Moughni said. “We were terrified.” (Continue Reading.)
