And the proportion of white Muslims is? Seems to me like faith has
become a backdoor by which race discrimination can be sneaked in.

There aren't a lot of adherents to Shinto that are
white either. I'm not sure what your point is.

If you implying that we shouldn't profile people
based on their religion or race, you're dead
wrong. We only have so many law enforcement
resources and it's stupid not to go with the
numbers if you have no other information. Looking
for a serial killer? Chances are it's a middle
aged white male. Looking for a terrorist? Chances
are it's a muslim, regardless of their race.

My point is that somewhere along the line racial
equality went from judging people by the content
of their character instead of their skin color and
external racial features to a inherent _racist_
quota system.
