... silent Muslim? State Rep. Adam Hasner kinda freaked out when he learned that followers of the Islamic faith were going to visit Tallahassee, where he works. Also, these people were going to talk.

It seems that in order to face down this menace, the Delray Beach Republican wants to organize a Jewish... caucus? League? Coalition? Bris? Whatever! Just a bunch of non-Muslims who can stand around Hasner so he doesn't have to face the Muslims alone, for God's sake.

As the Florida Politics blog points out, this is what happens when Hasner's parents let him stay up late to watch scary movies.
