An antimuslim group in florida wants a Muslim Deputy fired. They are also calling for the Broward County sheriff who hired him to resign. The issue gained National Attention when an online post by a radio went viral. Randi kaye reports. I know not every muslim is a jihadist, but all the jihadists seem to be muslims. Joyce kaufman has been on talk radio in south florida for more than 20 years. A hot topic these days is a man named nezar hamze. Hes the regional director of cair the council on American Islamic relations. Hes also a sheriffs deputy of Broward County. Kaufman says deputy hamze wasnt properly vetted, given his connection to cair and wants him gone from the police department. From racist to moron to islamophobia, a one trick phony. You know, i refuse to bow down. Are you an islamaphobe . No, not at all. Neither hamze nor the sheriff would speak to us but a spokesperson for the Broward CountySheriffs Department told me hamze has been with the Department Since 2011. A full time deputy since 2014. The department considers him an excellent deputy and loyal american. Hamze travels the state speaking out against extremism. And trains muslims in mosques how to escape an active shooter. Still, kaufman wants him investigated. And shes not alone. Activist David Rosenthal calls deputy hamze deputy hamas i hate islam. Islam is evil. Rosenthal even held a rally protesting hamze. But cair floridas lawyer says critics have it all wrong whenever were in an electoral year, theres a spike of this islamaphobic rhetoric. When we hear people kaufman supports Donald Trumps idea to surveil mosques and ban some muslims. Do you think youre contributing to the fear when you bring it up on air . I think the fear is there. I dont think i do anything to stoe it. I dont have to. Its there. The fact is, and kaufman knows the numbers, only a very small fraction of the worlds 1. 6 billion muslims endorse the violence of terror groups like isis and al qaeda. Still, she wonders if hamze would take action as a sheriffs deputy, his job is to uphold the law and sounds like youre concerned that maybe he would turn the other way if he heard some radical conversations taking place in a mosque, right, am i hearing you correctly . That is correct. I dont know, i mean, i cant say that, thats a fact, but i cant say its not a fact. Kaufman wants to know if hamze was ever cleared by the fbi. The lawyer for cair says he was fully vetted by the fbi. A british muslim family says they were discriminated against after they were stopped from traveling to disneyland, california.

Which leads to heart problems spiking during this most wonderful time adjei says its a time where family wants to be together and everybodys stressing about how to impress your family, you know, so our mind is taking off from our bodies.
