Obama condemns attempts to ‘stigmatize’ Muslims post-Brussels

(CBS News) With at least one Republican candidate for the White House endorsing patrols of U.S. Muslim neighborhoods in the wake of this week’s deadly bombings in Brussels, President Obama is cautioning against such approaches, saying any such proposals would “stigmatize” Muslim-Americans.

“As we move forward in this fight, we have to wield another weapon alongside our airstrikes, our military, our counterterrorism work and our diplomacy,” the president said in a video released Saturday. “That’s the power of our example.”

Mr. Obama called on the U.S. to “reject any attempt to stigmatize Muslim-Americans, and their enormous contributions to our country and our way of life.”
