You're right, there is no direct quote. However, it is easily inferred from several comments. The idea of not allowing any Muslim into our armed forces solely because they are a Muslim and some Muslims are terrorists effectively groups them all together as terrorists.
What you, and others, seem to be failing to understand is that the actions of any subset of a group do not define the entire group and when you knowingly and willfully deny the entire group any of the rights they are given by being a citizen of the United States of America you are discriminating. It's disgusting to think that any of you would want to do this.
Don't get me wrong, I'm in favor of profiling because it seems to work. Stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason. However, you can't strip search every Muslim person that goes through the airport, it's not the same thing.
