Too late, your life is being dictated by them. There are several things in your life being dictated by terrorists.
Airport security is one..
And they are the ones starting this whole Jihad thing, just like in the Crusades, we are just going out and defending ourselves.. Been going on a long long time....

Exactly. Leftist make it abundantly clear that they are not with the West, Europeans and whites. 'My enemy's, enemy is my friend.'

Right so since muslims persecute non-muslims, don't think that Islam will remain immune from the same.

This is how freedom works, get used to it, or get out.
Huh? So you don't like Christians "enforcing their religious views on the rest of us," but you defend Islam. That makes....no sense at all.

What he didn't mention is muslims consider just about everyone non-muslim and even each other enemies, with liberal atheist being their biggest enemy, but useful for now.

Interesting comment, le roi, and one I've read often lately in the press.


A mentally ill white man killed black people in a Charleston church. Progressives blamed the racist south, the Confederate flag came down, and all southerners were being blamed for the heinous act of one man.

When a white police officer killed an unarmed black teenager in Ferguson, white racism in law enforcement was blamed, the police officer who killed the teenager was labeled a racist, and a federal civil rights investigation was launched. We were not reminded by Progressives that most police officers are good people and it would be unfair to make assumptions about Officer Darren Wilson before the facts were known.

When the owners of a small pizza parlor in Indiana expressed their belief that marriage is the union of one man and one women, the press coverage resulted in the business owners receiving death threats. Promoting LGBT rights trumped the personal safety of American citizens. Progressives believed those small business owners got what they deserved.

But when Islamic terrorists killed more than 120 innocent people in France, Progressives immediately reminded us "ISIS is not the same as Islam".

Yeah, the guy seems to think that he's arguing with me but he's kind of proving my point.

Oh, please. If Islam was made up mostly of white Americans, Western leftists would hate it worse than they hated Dick Cheney. They wouldn't be able to mention it without going into a sputtering rage. But since it's made up mostly of darker-skinned people from countries in the Middle East and Africa, it must be defended. And that's the facts, Jack.

I didnt say it made sense, its just being consistent...Christians in America try to force their beliefs on everyone else, everyone else is going to force other religions on the Christians. You demand to put up a manger scene on public property, I'm going to help the Satanists put up a monument to Beelzebub right next to it. If a bunch of Syrians want to come here and bring their whacked out religion with them, we are all gonna share the bounty that is Muslim jihad. Either you believe in freedom of religion or ya dont.

So do the KKK and Nazis get to put up burning crosses and swastikas on public property too? Either you believe in freedom of politics or ya don't.
