cells in Michigan, and have reignited the debate over how to balance civil rights with security.

The ACLU on Thursday unveiled its "Mapping the FBI" initiative, which accuses the FBI of racial and ethnic profiling, a claim federal officials dispute.

Arabs locally and nationwide on Friday said they were outraged, but not surprised, by the ACLU report, which claims federal authorities are "mapping American communities around the country based on crude stereotypes about which groups commit different types of crimes," according to an ACLU release.

"Nationwide, the FBI is gathering reports on innocent Americans' so-called 'suspicious activity' and sharing it with unknown numbers of federal, state and local government agencies," the ACLU said in a statement.

The Michigan office of the Council on Islamic Relations (CAIR-Michigan) released a statement Friday saying it already felt the FBI views the Muslims in Michigan as a "suspect community."

"To map Arabs and Muslims as suspect communities tells us that the FBI believes that we are predisposed to criminality, which is not only untrue but is also an inaccurate means of investigating crime.
