but i don't get the sense that the islamic center of irving which is the major mosque in irving is coordinatingke you kind of referred to, the mosque has always sort of tried to kind of stay away from controversy, even when the mayor and other public officials in irving were making a lot of, you know, possibly inflammatory remarks about muslims. the mosque would do things like invite her to dinner. so i don't know if they're going to organize protests or not. i haven't seen it. >> finally, are there folks there who are embarrassed by this event, who sort of want to send a message thafshing, this is not the sum total of irving, texas? >> there's a lot of people in city hall that i talked to privately, that they don't put their names out there for fear of losing their jobs, but they're absolutely mortified. irving is actually a pretty normal city. you know, the politics can get a little crazy, but the people in city hall, the police on the police department even are -- they're not bigots. they're not racists. they're just trying to run a city. and this has happened and it's embarrassed them. >> a

and i always, for years and years and years, irv -- at that point irv was the principal of my old school. my dad was the head custodian. they were very close. i always thought that that was the connection, that irv picked me because of my dad. later i learned that wasn't the case. mr. findley told me miss corbin had influence. and by the way, miss corbin, her brother, will, and her sister, iola, were married to my great-grandmother's sister and brother, mary lou and ted. so it was kind of a family affair. but then i heard the third or fourth stories i've heard is that i was -- i wanted to be the quarterback as a junior of the fichens fliers football team and they thought tom carswell was a better quarterback and if they sent him to washington, they'd have to be stuck with me as the quarterback. so that story -- i heard that story floating around for a while. and i'm not sure how i felt about that. but then the final story i heard was mr. smith told me that donald tem, who was the coach of the southeast packers junior football team, i think i was 13 or 14 when i played for him, it was the

particularly in irving? >> well, in the north texas area, we've -- especially in 2015, we've seen our fair share of increases in hate crimes and negative sentiments towards the muslim community but this is something, frankly, that's happening across the nation so ahmed's story is unfortunately not uncommon. it's something that we're seeing repeated in schools across the country and jobs across the country, a lot of employment discrimination we're seeing. but in irving in particular we're concerned because there has been recently a very negative climate in focus comparing to the muslim community so we have had concerns that some of this sentiment, some of this is a result of that growing negative sentiment in irving from recent events. >> ahmed, i'm sure you have seen throughout the day this outpouring of support for you from all over the place. hillary clinton said "assumptions and fear don't keep us safe, they hold us back, ahmed stay curious and keep building." mark zuckerberg said you can visit facebook.

this year that this same mayor at a conservative campaign event apparently against sharia law in irving, texas, warned of a creeping muslim takeover of texas. appeared to glenn beck's show. let me play what happened there. >> okay. >> so what do you want people to do? >> i think you need to put your foot down and say this is america. we have -- we have laws here already. >> your response to that? >> yeah, i think it's so clear that this incident is just a symptom of the growing islamophobia in america as evidenced by this kind of bizarre conspiracy theory that somehow muslims are trying to take over the country and institute, quote, sharia law and get rid of the constitution. in fact, we are the prime defenders of the constitution against those who would deny us constitutional rights. so it's just very bizarre that it would happen in this town with this mayor. we've seen other incidents around texas. just this morning, i had to issue a news release calling on the fbi to investigate hate vandalism at a mosque in louisville, kentucky. so these things are occurring on a daily basis, and th

the second thing -- i think irv is right. the question is it conservative with a big "c" or conservative with a small "c." when it's been the roberts court, it's generally been conservative with a small "c." when its had the option to make the moderate conservative route rather than the radical conservative route, that's what they've done. the other thing that striked me about this term is that two of the most controversial and political cases come out of texas and in both cases texas is defending the liberal position. so fisher is a challenge to texas' university of texas at austin's affirmative action plan. the university of texas has been defending its admissions policy since 1992 when it was first challenged by a woman named hopwood. and the central question, i think, in fisher is how do you reconcile the application of strict scrutiny, which requires narrow tailoring to a compelling end and the court's holding that diversity deferentially defined by universities is a compelling end. two things are clear in the affirmativ
