I work in an office that has maybe 125-150 people. About 10 percent of these people are Pakistani by birth. They are some of the hardest working people in my office. They are productive, don't miss much time at all from work, and are willing to talk about their religion or my lack of one anytime in a very friendly and undestanding way.

Don't tell me these people have nothing to contribute you dolt.

What do you think?
Well,I do wish we went back to pre-1965 Immigration Laws. That would solve the problem quite a bit,as most of the muslims would have never gotten here.

So 5-7 million Muslims in the US are intent on killing over 345 million non-Muslims (infidels)? Do they have some master plan that they will implement one day to kill all the infidels?

Maybe if the US stopped invading Muslim countries, pushing democracy because the US thinks it is what they need, killing thousands of people, causing civil unrest between the people, supporting Islamic movements by governments, the hate would stop? You hate what radicals are doing to the US, the same way they hate what the US is doing to their countries.

What exactly do you contribute to this country, besides your hatred for everyone that doesn't mirror you?

even if the USA did none of what you say, they would still hate the USA, as they cannot stand that we have freedom (or what looks like freedom) and they dont.
plus we also support Israel.

I have never thought they contributed in positive ways to America. Islam is a terrifying religion.

Or your just a chichi man.

If Muslims are to leave, it follows that all of you have to leave all Muslim lands and cannot interfere in the politics of Muslim lands? That includes Palestine - so you'd have to take your pets with you.

A lot of folks would take such a deal.

The stats show Pakistani Americans are one of the more successful ethnic groups in the Country. 60% of adults have a BA or higher, stable families are the norm, median incomes are in line accordingly and so on and so forth.
