   You bring up an interesting point.  Since so many Muslim males are   
   named Mohammad, maybe we should start censoring their names in news   
   reports, just to drive the point home.   
      
   "The New York Times is reporting that M******* Ali's Parkinson's   
   Disease has worsened."   
      
   Or should we refer to it as "The M-word"?
