I don't mean to sound rude when i say this - you were an illegal immigrant when you were arrested. You haven't mentioned this in the description of your AMA. There was a legal basis to arrest you, it almost sounds like this wasn't the case based on what you have written. Granted singling out the muslim visa violators gets into the gray area of law enforcement, but there definitely was a valid reason other than your claim that you were arrested simply for being muslim.
I've always wanted to ask this question, you were already breaking the law of the land by staying illegally and exploited a provision in the system to become a citizen. On what basis do you expect 'fair' treatment? When you (maybe your parents) have decided to disregard the law, why is there a different expectation the other way around? You claim you are as american as any citizen of this country, but surely you (/your parents) were aware of the risks(and consequences) when you came into the country and decided to stay on as illegals. Do you realize how much of a hassle people like you create for people who want to enter the country through legal means?
