You cowards want to throw me out of this country? I invite you to try. Please..pretty please with sugar on top.
Try and throw me out!
Sir, it is about banning new Islamic immigrants coming to the U.S., not Muslims living in America currently.
Why did you convert to religion of peace?

muslims mourning the victims of muslim terrorism don't appear to be plentiful

What do you think?
This is outright silly. No wonder it's a hit with Conservatives.

But I remember Chris Rock addressed this situation best: in one of his comedy routines he surveyed the violent acts of contemporary
Islamic extremism in the US and then surveyed the contemporary acts of violence in the US. At the time of this particular show, there was the incident of James Byrd, a black man, being dragged behind a pick-up truck driven by two racist whites in Texas. It was at the conclusion of these two surveys that Chris Rock exclaimed, "I'm not afraid of al-Qaeda. I'm more afraid of al-Cracka."
LOL

And you should also. Pay attention.
It's not Islamic extremism that's destroying America.

None of your business. Why?
Because you don't care.
So, I'm not going to waste my time telling you.

Islam advocates violence all in the hope of going to that big bordello in the sky.

I don't look to Chris Rock for wisdom

I love Islam.
It's a beautiful religion, with a beautiful heart and a beautiful soul.
As I've told many an inquirer in the past, I came to Islam to be a better Christian.

Islam is really just a plagiarism of Judaism and Christianity without the love thy neighbor part. Half of the koran is stories stolen from the Jewish Bible and reworked to make the Biblical figures Arabs and Muslims. Problem is the Jewish Bible was written 1500 years before the koran. So, the only solution is to say that the original Jewish Bible was really Islamic but the crafty Jews falsified their scripture and the koran version is correct.. Complete foolishness

And, any "religion" that has the death penalty for those who leave is really a cult.

And, muhammad married a 6 year old girl when he was 53 which is sick

What an incredible statement. This coming from an American, the most violent country on the planet.
The US has a Military Industrial Complex, which functions as the cornerstone of the American economy.
The nature of the MIC is to be in constant war in order to survive. Without war the MIC will wither away.
So the US in order to feed this war machine has to invent wars and conflicts, they will even manufacture
antagonisms if they don't exist. Don't believe me?
Witness this thread, of which the vast majority of comments are by people who have shown and continue to show exceptional ignorance about Islam,
but yet see no problem with making silly antagonistic pronouncements about it.
Where did your dislike of Islam come from?
Why do you antagonize this religion?
Why are you so frightening of this religion, that you are willing to subvert your own civil rights just to deny theirs?
Why do you perceive Islam to be anti-western?

Your mindset is one borne of--and nurtured by--a warmongering culture. A culture enslaved by perpetual war. And this is done in order to feed the war machine of the MIC.
