Where's the outrage?

The ACLU is making much of the supposed violation of American and temporary resident Muslims' rights. They are terribly worried about the rights of particular Muslims that were planning to engage in acts of wholesale murder against US citizens. I remember when Laci Peterson disappeared. The police immediately began to question all the sex offenders in the area around her disappearance. Apparently they questioned many sick and elderly offenders. Now, most of these guys had never been convicted of murders and there was no proof that Laci had been murdered when the offenders were questioned. These guys were considered possible suspects because they loosely fit a profile that the police had made up around the fact that Laci had disappeared. There was certainly no evidence at the time that Laci had been sexually assaulted. Most of the sex offenders were convicted of crimes far less serious than the kidnapping and murder of a pregnant woman, but they were considered possible suspects anyway. After their interrogations by the police, the sex offenders did not receive attention from outraged ACLU attorneys eager to claim that their clients civil rights were being violated. What harm is there in being questioned anyway? I am sure that even some of those sex offenders, bad as they may be, were happy to help in an investigation into the disappearance of a poor little pregnant lady. Then to top it all off, the Police convinced Scott Peterson's own girlfriend to tape her and Scott's phone conversations, before they had any proof that a crime had been commited. What a violation of privacy. Where's the outrage?
